And you feel bad about being an idle drone? Consider your options:

A. Go back and forth over and over again mining minerals/gas

B. Get roasted by a hellion

C. Become a building and FUCKING DIE.

Yeah, being idle isn't so bad now is it!

I want to code something that makes sense too. What should I code. Damn it.


Sort of random, but if you want some interesting coding problems and you like math, check out Project Euler. It's what i've been doing in my boring internship downtime. Google Code Jam is in the same vein, and a search for "programming challenges" would probably give many more results.

Lol, well at least you have freedom to slack off. Even though I have nothing to do I still don't like being caught watching videos by people walking by.

I felt irritated for that too. Later, I just got used to it. They can't expect me to look at my computer doing nothing, I have no work and I'm there. What do they expect me to do? Staring contest against my computer? Rofl.

There is a fundamental logical flaw in this: Zerg buildings are actually alive. They don't take up supply, that's it. So, for becoming a building, dying is obviously out of question and I also can do upgrades or make more larvae, which will become either drones or units. Fair deal.

The other two, I wouldn't say no to any of them as I take "going back and forth over&over again mining minerals/gas" as doing actual work and "get roasted by a hellion" as internship period finishes/I get fired (no pun intended).

Shit, being idle actually is so bad.

You wouldn't be too happy if your wish gets granted.

Wow, code jam looks like a nice way to kill time. I'm a slow coder and I'm a d-/e level coder anyway, so any single code will probably take up to a few hours for me. YAAY.
