Throw Paper!
Throw Paper!/Widro.com

How many times have you calculated the wind speed velocity when throwing a piece of trash into a trash can?

Zero? Yeah, that's what I thought.

Throw Paper! is a small little web game that has you do just that - throw paper. Based on the age old office pastime of balling up a piece of paper and trying to toss it into the waste basket like a basketball professional, Throw Paper! is a simple little time waster.

There's two basics to playing the game. First, a fan will be blowing, sometimes on your right, sometimes on your left (why the fan switches, we don't know - you must be just that bored at the office), and with varying velocities. Second, you must click the ball of paper when the arrow protruding from it oscillates to the appropriate spot that will get you to "score", velocity considered.

There is nothing else to to game; it tracks your best streak which you can submit to the high score site (which, by the way, all the high scores are hacked.) Nothing changes, no exciting music, just the woosh and sound of dropping paper.

I've seen better games around this concept, with more challenges to them. This is one you can safely skip - practice your real paper throwing skills instead, it'll be more entertaining.
