timesink

Anything which takes up a lot of your time. I can be homework, a diy project, a tv show, or even a ridiculously long nap. It can be enjoyable, or even productive, but it requiers sinking a lot of time into it... therefore timesink.
I decided to start baking my own bread... didn't realise it was such a timesink.

Mad Men is great, but it is such a timesink.

Timesink

Something that takes up a lot of time and produces few or no tangible results. Usually a website.

In general, a waste of time.

TV Tropes Timesink

An area of the internet where time stops, coincidentally overlapping with the site TV Tropes.

Similar to a wikicoma.
Somebody mentioned this thing called "phlebotinum;" next thing I knew, I was digging myself out of the TV Tropes timesink six hours later.
