I kinda bored and I'm to lazy to go get some new music or listen for something to play.................. so any suggestions about what to play on my guitar?

Scales?    ;D
Just kidding... hard to suggest something new when I don't know what you usually play....
Here's a suggestion: go out into left field- try a completely different style of music. Try to learn one piece in a vein you normally wouldn't touch. Might be interesting...

actually scales wouldn't be a bad thing, i could always learn some new ones, i cant believe i forgot about some of those.

oh and i forgot to say i play mostly rock, lately ive been learning some ska and reggea (if thats how its spelled)

Close; it's "reggae".
Wanna hear some reggae guitar playing that's not just chords on the off-beat? Check out Ernest Ranglin, if you haven't heard him. Considered a master jazz and reggae guitarist, but he doesn't play cheesy fusion. Hard to describe... but he's a legend.
 Then there's African music... King Sunny Ade is a great underrated guitar player, and the pedal steel guy he plays with (urgh, what is his name?!) plays like he's from another planet. Very different, but it rocks in its own strange way. And with juju and other forms of African pop, you can hear the African roots that inspired rock, and also hear the rock music that filtered back into their culture, like with country music and reggae...
Or maybe slack-key guitar (Hawaiian style)? That's different. Can't think of a name offhand, but that could be inspiring, trying a different tuning and sort of re-discovering the guitar.
Reminds me- I started learning to play guitar years ago and stopped when I broke my old Guild acoustic; need to get that thing fixed.

learn some zakk wylde mate, that'll keep you busy for a few years!! lol

Thanks for the suggestions i'll look into these songs, i need a break from all this punk though.........ehhh no more power chords and one string solos.

I love the steel pedal guitar. Ever heard of Robert Randolph? He plays that. Robert Randolph and the Family Band, check em' out!

if you want something interesting to play, try having a go at Flight of the Bumble Bee....

try playing it as fast as you possibly can  ;)

it's amazing how much you improve after going through it
