A good thing to do when you're devoid of inspiration is to do something to actively seek it. Even a short walk just around the block can sometimes get your brain working, but there's nothing better than a good piece of music, or books (I find movies and video games a bit less inspiring, with some noteworthy exceptions).

Also, and this is only my idea, so it might not work for anyone else, but determine what state you work best in, and only work when in that state. Some people will find that they are most productive or creative when on a caffeine buzz (or even other drugs). Personally, most of my really creative stuff seems to come when I'm slightly overtired.

I've gotten a lot of inspiration and ideas when delivering papers, strangely enough. I guess it's a rather mindless job, and my mind tends to wander.

So, you're 21, you live with your parents and share computers? You sound like the biggest loser ever.
So fuck if i live with my parents aged 21 and we only have 1 PC, which happens to be a Pre 95 machine. I'm not ashamed of it or anything. I don't really give a flying fuck what you think of me, because i know you're probablys no better, at least i'm not a sit at a computer 24/7 kind of guy. I actually go out, so fuck if i don't go clubbing, the reason i don't is because i'm rather unsocial, i perfer being alone. So fuck if i work in a Corner shop, it's a friendly family run business. So fuck if i don't live a life most men would want, i'm happy the way I am, so bite me!

Okay, i lost my temper their. I appologise for that. I'm sick of people (not you guys), rating me as a complete looser. Clecky acting like he's cooler then Redmage dosn't exactly make me feel calmer tho. Plus, i've been working all day and i think i may be getting a mild case of the flu or something.
Symptoms
Runny nose and sneezing
aching head
feeling sick
drowsy feeling
Wishing my workshift would end.
Are those the symptoms of the flu?

Yeah, that and the bronchitis-thingy epidemic going around. I'd reccomend either drinking a sobe or getting laid.

Once I got bored and scored over 24,000 points on Skifree. You just have to go over one of the jumps, then hold the up arrow key and repeatedly crash into the jump. You get about 57 points each time, and if you're lined up right you won't start skiing downhill afterwards.
Reason and logic had led people into the horrors of war; the only route to salvation was to reject logic and embrace anarchy and the irrational.
