We've all been there before – plenty of free time and an internet connection at hand. Sure, you could visit YouTube, Twitter or Facebook, but there are plenty of other websites that will make the hours fly by. So we tried to compile a variety of websites worth visiting, with something for everybody.

 

Angry Alien

Angry Alien has tons of awesome movie parodies, condensed into 30 second clips and starring bunnies. It's a whacky premise but it works just fine, with everything from Die Hard and Jaws to Twilight and Napoleon Dynamite featured.

 

Thule Road Trip

For those of you old enough to remember the Oregon Trail, Thule Road Trip offers a similar experience. This browser game sees you and a few friends on a road trip to a rock festival, with players having to buy supplies, sleep and deal with random scenarios along the way. It's a great time-waster, and thanks to the random events, you'll find yourself going back to it.

 

Astronomy Picture of the Day

With a vast array of telescopes, probes and observatories, NASA has plenty of opportunities to take pictures. And what better way to make use of them than to post the best ones each day? NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day posts everything from eclipses to earthly phenomena, making it well worth a look.

 

Akinator

Another great example of a time-wasting website, Akinator guesses which celebrity or fictional character you're thinking of by asking you a series of questions. The results are incredibly accurate for the most part, making for a great party trick of sorts.

 

Food Porn Daily

Despite the ridiculous name, Food Porn Daily features mouth-watering photos of food, with most of it being user-submitted. While it might not sound like much, this site proves that taking snaps of food is an art in itself.

 

Dumb Laws

This website chronicles dumb laws across the United States and internationally. For example, did you know that in Alabama it's an offense to open an umbrella on a street, for fear of spooking horses? While some of the laws may be outdated, it's still pretty hilarious to read about them.

 

Kongregate

With thousands of Flash games on hand, Kongregate has something for everyone, from RPGs to shooters. Contrary to many other Flash game websites, these games are actually pretty enjoyable and feature achievements too.

 

Free Rice

No, you don't get any free rice, but those less fortunate do provided that you answer a series of questions correctly on this website. Feel free to answer the questions as many times as you want, as every correct answer sees ten grains of rice donated via the World Food Programme.

 

OMG-Facts

This website simply offers a ton of facts on a variety of subjects, from sports and sex to history and movies. For example, did you know that the remains of an 18th century ship were found by workers at Ground Zero? The more you know....

 

Cute Overload

Who can't resist the charms of cute animals? This website features videos and pictures of furry creatures from around the world, from puppies and kittens to baby skunks and parrots. If you'd like, you can even submit your own entries to be featured!
