Freerice
Learn vocabulary and feed the hungry. Freerice.com is a vocabulary quiz site. For every right answer you select, they give 10 grains of rice to the hungry. Get all the way to level 60 and learn what anergy, mammock, and solation mean.
Geoguessr
Explore the world and test your geography knowledge at the same time. GeoGuessr is a game where you guess the location of a picture using a world map. The closer you are to the location, the more points you get. At the end of five rounds you find out your total score.
Mentalfloss
Mental_floss is full of random trivia knowledge you could never dream of knowing. Check out the amazing fact generator and quizzes for some interesting tidbits
Procatinator
Every time you load the website, you get a new song and a new cat gif. Cats and music, what else do you need?
Reddit is possibly the most addicting website on the Internet. Reddit is a community of people with specific subreddits on pretty much everything. Whether it be science, gaming, starcraft, or birds with arms, Reddit has it. If it exists, there is a subreddit for it.
Snopes
Confused about what is a truth and what is a lie? Snopes.com has you covered. Find out if the claims that shady politician is making are true, or if the story you mom always told you is an old wives’ tale.
Sporcle
Sporcle.com has timed quizzes on just about everything. Recite the countries of the world, name Pokemon weaknesses, or dispense your Friends knowledge.
Stumbleupon
With stumbleupon.com you will reach parts of the Internet you did not know existed. Select your interests, and Stumble Upon will send you all over the web with websites and articles that might interest you. (This is where I, OP, found this page)
Wikipedia
The ultimate source for time wasting. Learn about anything and everything. Wikipedia has well-cited articles on almost anything you can think of. Need a place to start? Try the list of common misconceptions, the list of unusual articles, or the list of lists of lists.
UselessWeb
Similarly to stumbleupon.com, theuselessweb.com takes you to a random website with one click. The only difference is that these websites are completely useless. Need a random color? They have it covered. Is you name Dan? Hear the beautiful sound of your name. Do you like Breaking Bad or the sound a bell makes? Ding!
Tvtropes
Everyone knows cool guys walk away from explosions, especially tvtropes.org. Learn every movie/television cliché and trend and when it happened.
UnplugTheTv
Unplugthetv.com is a website for educational videos about just about everything. You can learn how the pope is selected, why we are ticklish, facts about Mr. Rogers, and much more.

The catinator.com was worth the post alone...Thanks!

Oh God, OP posted a recommendation to TVTropes. Some people may never find their way back to imgur now. Hope you're proud of yourself, OP.

pfft dur imgur's numba uno, plus, you're kinda on here now right?
jhyw
Instead of making us play a game to give people rice, why not give people rice?
LoneStonerLady
It's the various sponsors that pay for it, it explains how it works in the FAQ
OriginalWadjet
TVTropes should be top of the list. Fuck, I remember when I first discovered it... Accidentally stayed up all night.
OriginalWadjet
Back when that was an accomplishment, not a normal thing.
Nihzlet
I'm not sure the list is in any particular order. But yeah, TVTropes is an inescapable black hole when you first discover it.

I'm about to be the Oprah of giving away 10 grains of rice at a time.
kleppsd
You get ten grains of rice! You get ten grains of rice! EVERYONE GETS TEN GRAINS OF RICE!
ringox
Im drunk. I googled "grains". I was disappoint, but kept going to donate more grains. Everybody, get drunk, donate grains.
kleppsd
You get ten grains of rice! You get ten grains of rice! EVERYONE GETS TEN GRAINS OF RICE!
BadPotato
I want to know who has the job of rice counter, talk about rough.
ginangu
They probably just go by how much 10 grains weigh.

Well that ruins my mental image, damn!

Ok, I just got a score of 10,423. Beat that! Actually not sure if that would be considered well. I got within 200km on a few though!

I average around 9000. It seems its either the states, australia or brazil.
sushaichuck
I do too, though i did have a lot of europe and africa too.

What's Imgur?
StamosatmyFuneral
This information is delivered with a certain assumption that you, being on Imgur, know about Imgur.
iAmIncoherent
You're, kind of, on imgur. I think.
TheOneWhoWasLeft
At the same time, we're, kind of, on reddit, though. And on 4chan, a little bit, which is curiously absent.

kimttar
I assumed it was submitted on reddit. Scrolled up and was disappointed to learn it was submitted on imgur. So yeah! Where's imgur!?
KitchenSink
Why would it have the website it's posting on on it?
MadeAccountSoICanRememberImagesToRepostLater
Considering Imgur is basically a smaller Reddit... there's really no point of including it. Reddit has that covered.
InferiorDarkmass
well a Redditor made Imgur for Reddit so it could be classed as Reddit :o
HPNomad
What about Cracked?
BenjaminAJarvis
Fuck Cracked
NarcolepticHamster
Eh, they've kinda gone downhill recently. IMO, of course.
balkingtowinnie
the newer writers are making really shitty articles. I am not a hater, I loved the site. But lately Ive read at least 5 shit articles, wtf
BenjaminAJarvis
Fuck Cracked
solsund
No kidding, until I loaded the rest I thought they missed TV Tropes too. Both those sites just devoured my free time.

Level 60/60 2600 grains and it goes back down to level 59.. I don't think this ever ends..

I couldnt stop because I was doing really well and felt like I needed to keep going because I was getting everything right.

If you stop, think about how long it takes them to send the rice and then come back later.
Ilikefluffythings
I'm learning new words yay! I'm going to introduce that site to my dad, he will try and get to level 10000000
Calvinbah
Woo, trivia games are super fun. Makes me want to go play Bar trivia except that would require me to leave the house.
imastark
I can't help you because Im also stuck on the freerice website out of guilt.
Badprenup
There's a bot for that. Set up 50 instances of it and let it run in the background. More rice for them and less guilt for you!
Yoshiru
To be fair, you could donate a dollar to any food-based charity and clear any guilt. That's not very much rice, ;p

MaybeeAB
If they have a certain amount of rice possible to give, why not just give it all? are they seriously counting grains of rice?
travellingmonkey
The last time I was on that website was more than 3 yrs ago! Nostalgia :') You'll never be able to shut this down *evil laugh*
jsegs
This qualifies as a fisat world problem
BurntRamen
What's it like in Fisat World? Do they need rice?
LePiggy
Not really no, they much prefer hamburgers.

There should be a freehamburger site for first world problems.

Plot Twist: For every answer you get wrong, they take rice AWAY from the hungry
MycurlyhairsaysIcantgoouttoday
Am I the only one that thinks that 10 grains is barely anything? People would have to play non stop to feed someone.
CyanCo
(2/3) So, they answered 260 questions correctly to feed one person once?
CyanCo
Another user posted they earned 2,600 grains. Never counted, but that sounds like a medium bowl.
MonopolyFourBee
I went and did some math. 2,000 grains is about 1 serving of rice.
PlayingDevilsAdvocate
Then your maths is shit
MonopolyFourBee
No, your math is shit. *Best. Comeback. Ever.*
CyanCo
(3/3) Love the idea, but maybe 100 grains per answer. Thoughts?
SlashySlashy
They buy the rice with money gained from ads. So they can probably only afford ten rice per answer. And if 1 mil people answered 260 (1/2)
SlashySlashy
questions correctly, then that's 1 million bowls of rice. Enough to feed more than 1000 people a year.
Rhase
But who counts the rice....
Lumenation
Cookie Clicker should make the list. I hate imgur for showing me that site. However enjoy tormenting my OCD friends with it.
StamosatmyFuneral
Ha, I was going to mention this. I finally did a hard reset after getting all the "Achievements" so I'm done.
jetfuelcantmeltnomeltcheese
i had stuff to do today, why u do dis.
shelliftw
fuck cookie clicker. i've been playing this game for like, three weeks. it consumes me.
RireMakar
I cheated and spawned myself a ton of money in order to ruin the fun. That way, I could stop playing, 'cause I couldn't otherwise...
