Have you ever had one of those days where, no matter what you do or how hard you try, you just can't seem to entertain yourself? I know I have. Using a variety of sources from around the Interwebs, I have gathered a list of 11 websites and videos that are sure to pull you out of that slump. Maybe.

1. Shrek's Day Out

Sure to induce a stroke or a premature birth. Maybe both. Who knows.

2. Why? How? Who?

Don't let the name fool you. It is, in fact, a website, just one that leads you somewhere strange. Try it out for size. I'd tell you what happens, but spoilers are never fun.

3. The News, But Make It Futuristic

www.newsoffuture.com

Have you ever wondered what will happen in the year 2038? Wonder no more with newsoffuture.com! This website allows you to read "fictional" articles from the distant future, which is what I'm sure is what everyone wants to do.

4. There Are Plenty of Fish In the Sky

salmonofcapistrano.com

Swim upstream with this next website. No, you don't get context. Is it a game? Is it an alternate reality? You don't get to know until you click.

5. Who's Writing These?

A useful website for when you need an extremely strange compliment to give someone. Perhaps when dueling.

6. The Woods Beckon

You have two choices each time in this seemingly-simple RPG. Choose wisely.

7. Potato Potato

Potato potato potato potato potato potato potato potato potato potato.

8. ​Who Even Reads Anymore?

Why spend hours upon hours reading an actual book who you can have the basic plot condensed into a couple of sentences? This is SparkNotes on crack.

9. This Guy Needs to Get His Head Checked Out

This game has no comprehensible description. You just have to experience it for yourself. Yeah, it's all fun and games until an arm starts coming out of his ear.

10. My Child

An interesting RPG in which you play a witch taking care of an egg.

11. Ha! When Pigs Fly

Who'd've thought that pigs would, in fact, fly in an opera house? Certainly not me. An idle game in which you generate and kill pigs that fly around with opera in the background.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
