Having just gotten back from a very long car trip, I thought I'd propose a few fun things to do to pass the time.



Signs

Need conversation after spending 8 hours in the car with your sweetie? People can only talk about useful stuff for so long. Just run with whatever you see on the highway signs. Driving through Pennsylvania? Talk about Intercourse for fifteen minutes. See a Springfield? It's time to talk about the Simpsons! See a silly name like Conshohocken or Ho-Ho-Kus? Mock it for a little while. These are all fun tactics. Need more? Just make up stories about towns you pass. "Oh, Libertyville! That's where the Curling Hall of Fame is!" Spend enough time in a car and this will become quite funny.
