Wordsearch

Yesterday on the bus, I saw a grown man (probably about 45 years old) doing a wordsearch in a book of wordsearches. I can understand sudoku and crossword puzzles, which require either skills in logic or trivia. But a wordsearch! They're so easy. There's really no skill involved. The only way I could imagine a wordsearch actually being fun is if you're racing someone else. But if there's no opponent, it's stupid and boring. To this guy's credit, he did seem to be finding words at an exceptional rate.
