KoL got me through some of the most interminably boring stretches of time at an early job where there was, literally, nothing to do. I was hired to help fill out a team for a project that was delayed for a year, and in the meantime fielded a rare request on the current system. And did maintenance on it-- once a week-- for half a day.

I would count down to the next KoL action point I'd get. IIRC, I was a saucerer.
