Eh...a lot of things that seem like they should be relatively stupid on the surface are loved and revered, maybe even enjoyable. I still don't get why people pour so much over baseball statistics, but clearly its an enjoyable pastime for many.
Some other sources of fun to mull over: Tamogatchis, fantasy football, pulling a lever on a slot machine.
I spent more time playing Adventure Capitalist than I'm really willing to admit to, but despite being an idle game I have to admit it has a fun core game loop that rewards you for checking in on it occasionally. I don't really recommend that game, since its ultimately a huge waste of time, but I'll just admit that it was fun while it lasted.
When I played Universal Paperclip I realized that the whole idle game genre has a lot of untapped potential. That game has neat shifts in gameplay as well as a story arc that ends in a pretty satisfying way. http://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/ http://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/
