Top 5 Ways Americans Waste Time . . .Sitting in Traffic Is #4

There's a new survey out on American reading habits, and most of the stats are pretty boring. But here's a good one . . .

The average American now spends two hours a day reading . . . but only if you count the stuff we read online.

In other words, reading "Pride and Prejudice" counts as reading . . . but so does scrolling through Wikipedia to find out actor Brendan Fraser has a brother named Kevin. (???)

The best part of the study was buried near the bottom: 2,000 people were asked to name the top ways they WASTE time. And you might be doing #4 right now . . .

1. Scrolling through social media. 49% of people said they waste a significant amount of time doing it.

2. Using apps or games on your phone or tablet, 30%.

3. Watching TV, 29%.

4. Sitting in traffic, 28%.

5. Constantly checking your phone, 26%.
