Me? Well, first, i'll go and refresh the web window for about five times. If this doesn't work, i'll try to close and reopen said web window again. And while waiting, i'll just listen to any good music that comes up over my radio, or even again watch any anime eps I've already downloaded, like Naruto Episode 151 (HINATA forever!) or Bleach (Like the Opening and Ending of Ep 98 by the way;)

I go up to my brother and slap him. If not I spazz in my seat and slap the computer or laptop, whichever, that I'm on. :P

Let Air take me home...

Hm... I... sit and wait XD. If it takes too much time, I still wait and complain under that time :P. And while im waiting I turn on music (but usually that makes things worse so I dont do it too often XD). So yeah, I just sit and wait all the time O_o. Everything else makes it slow XD. Lol :P

i curse, and greatly, cursing just about everything, even my cats and things like ants do not escape my wrath

Use a browser with tabs, open all the pages/links you want and go away for a while. If you're not actually waiting for them to load it doesn't seem half as bad.

watch anime or go play some console

I reset my stuff first, and if that doesn't work, I draw and do stuff offline... and then I write the story part of a comic im working on... Or maybe I also go take a nap sometimes, when I wake up the connection is always faster!

Check if any of my housemates are using bittorrent.

hmmmm... are you on dial up or high speed? it may just be the traffic on the site is slowing your computer down if it only does it with Minitokyo, though if its happening all the time you might have a built up of tem folders or tracking cookies in your internet history folders and such.

Erm... yea.... so i have dial up at home and because i live in the country, its really quite slow. Most of the time i have to refresh the page a few times for it to load completely... and when its just being stupid i generally open solitaire or pinball and play that for a bit, or go make a snack if im hungry, i also may bust out some homework and start that if theres a project that i have to do....
because my computer and i have a love/hate relationship.... i tend to yell at it quite often and lose the little amount of patience that i have... because it does like to misbehave. often

Whenever my computer takes forever to load something (occasionally), I just go and get some water or tap my fingers on my desk. If I opt for option #2, I may also sigh, rub my eyes or groan (seriously XD).

If it's being a little b*tch, I usually give up and watch TV or read a book. Or just wait very impatiently.

I usually work on something in one of the other windows I have open, or attempt to work on homework (though, by the time I get my books for said homework, the site's most likely up, so the book sits, nearly unused, in my lap ^_^' ).

i do something else... like reading or playing guitar
usually the fault of the connection so i can't do anything about it

But do you know why kids like the taste of cinnamon toast crunch?
