One night I was bored stupid, so I thought… HEY!!

And I typed in [http://www.BORED.com](http://www.BORED.com)

Lo and behold, it had links to some interesting sites, and this was one of them.

Anyone else come in through this way?

Same thing here… I was bored so typed in [http://www.bored.com](http://www.bored.com) and found this site. I read through the entire archive list and then unsatisfied turned to the message boards.

I, too, was at work, and was bored outta my mind… ran into the message archives in the thread-spotting, and posted to “How to kill evil Nazi Groundhogs” and liked the humor, and wit of you guys, and so I joined.  
Best decision, IMHO, that I have ever made.
