DO MORE SOCIETY
These are ALL the things you could have done instead of watching Love Island
It's aired for 58 hours... and you could have been doing a lot of other things
LOVE Island comes to a close on Monday... and with it 58 hours of airtime.
If you are like us you've watched virtually every episode.
11
We've seen the highs - New Jack being a dad! - the lows - Dani crying after learning Old Jack was with ex Ellie - and have never felt so tense as when the re-couplings happen.
We've also learnt a whole new set of phrases (I'm loyal, babes/I'm not going to lie but she is just my type).
But, we also confess, we've felt a teeny, tiny bit guilty, about quite how much time we've spent watching telly.
Now, Foxy Bingo has worked out exactly what you could have been doing during those magic 58 hours.... and you are set to feel VERY guilty.
Learn how to fly and land a plane
11
Apparently it takes around 20 hours to learn to take off and land a plane.
Meanwhile, to acquire a licence, required to pilot a plane by yourself without an instructor, can take just 40 hours.
That's 60 hours - and we bet you've spent two hours looking at their Insta accounts, meaning you could be jetting away based on the time you've watched Love Island.
Become a circus performer
11
It's estimated that it takes around 50 hours to learn circus skills including how trapeze, tightrope walk, juggle and unicycle.
That would give you eight hours to impress your friends with your new found skills!
Learn to drive
11
The DVLA says it takes the average person 45 hours to learn how to drive - plus another 22 hours of practising.
That's 67 hours all in.
But, with 58 hours under your belt, you'd be well on your way... if only you hadn't spent hows watching Wes and co.!
Train for a 10k
11
In order to train for a 10k, the average person needs to put in about 40 hours of running time over between eight and 10 weeks.
That's virtually exactly the same amount of time Love Island is on... we know what we would rather do.
Read all the Harry Potter books
11
Apparently it takes 60 hours to read the entire Harry Potter series. If you've done that, you could've read Leo Tolstoy's mammoth War and Peace which is estimated to take 33 hours.
Complete a flower arranging course
11
Most evening class flower arranging courses last around 40 hours. But, of course, the problem with evening classes is they clash with, um, Love Island.
Learn how to play guitar
11
Now this is something we imagine Eyal would be impressed with.
It takes the average person 50 hours of practice to learn to play guitar at beginner's level.
Learn how to ballroom dance
11
We do not want to throw shade on any one Love Islander's dance moves but Dr Alex, maybe this is something you could look into when you are back home.
Because it takes around 40 hours to learn to ballroom dance - and there are loads of classes!
So, next time you are at a wedding, impress everyone with your newfound skills. And not just quite how much you know about Laura, Megan and Dani.
Watching every episode of Breaking Bad (and then get started on Better Call Saul)
11
Okay, so this one is a bit ridiculous. 1) Because every right-minded person has seen Breaking Bad and 2) Because you are just switching telly with telly... but you could feasibly do this.
Read the entire works of Shakespeare... twice
11
Because once just isn't enough. From Romeo and Juliet to Othello it would take around 50 hours to get through the entire works... not bard at all.
