When you’ve been on a message board since 1999.
And you’ve started only 95 threads.
And the most successful thread got a total of 85 replies.
I cant tell you how excited I am bout this thread.
You see none of you are boring for much longer than an instant.
We all seem to agree that there are degrees of boringness. If one of us is deemed the most boring then off the list we go because we are now a bit interesting by being classified as such. Then the new most boring person becomes interesting as well.
What a beautiful circle.
I have fallen in love with every single one of you. :::Swoon:::
I once passed up a date on a Saturday night because I wanted to count and roll the coins in my coin bank. She was not amused and still teases me to this day about it (she’s now my ex, go figure)
In my defense I had $300 in my coin bank. Worth it? I think so. But that’s probably because I’m boring.
I just recently spent 10 minutes explaining to a friend how cool I was because I broke down an Arabic word to its components and thus learned its meaning, and I only know a handful of Arabic words. And I probably could have gone on for another 10 minutes but he interupted with a “That’s fascinating, really” so I desisted.
Do I win because I was using the source of my boringness to support my contention that I rock really hard?
Nope, you tie with me. 
When, for fun, you go to a local college library.
To conduct research.
For a fanfic you’re writing.
Okay, how about when you are so desperate to not be boring that you keep checking a thread about being boring to see if anyone responded to your post or noticed that you kind of flirted with them and no one noticed?
Yes, hello. That would be me.
I actually laughed out loud at this. I love candy smooshing fights. I prefer Skittles to M&M’s though. Slightly less messy and they smell neat.
I have one hobby. It’s a computer game called Counter-Strike. It also happens to be the only thing I’m fairly good at. Wanna hear about how I pwned this kid that’s probably 12 years old earlier? When I have the AWP, my advice to you is to stay clear.
I’ve gone a few days without speaking because I had nothing to say. In fact there are probably weeks where I’ve said less then 100 words and those were almost all to my cat. Back then my favorite past time was laying in bed thinking. Mostly about reworking the measurement system to be nicer. You see I started with 1 day and divided it up into 100,000 moments. Then you let a photon of light travel in a vacuum for 1 moment and that’s 1,000,000 rods. The big benefit of that was that now the speed of light was exactly 1 followed by a certain amount of zeros. I also worked out units of weight (pods) and various other things such as temperature with an absolute zero but different then Kelvin. So my measuring system was rpm rather then cms. But then I realized that I liked base 16 better then 10 because 16 is the square of the square of 2 so I had to redo it.
I wont bore you with the details of my Grand Calendar.
But thankfully I’ve gotten better. Not so well as I’ll be able to break my nearly 10 year long drought in the bed but better. I have until early August.
I’m so boring that I want to hear about your Grand Calendar. You already have my attention with your new and improved units of measurement.
Last Saturday I went to the Reference Library in Toronto and copied three chapters out of the ASHRAE Handbook (Vol. 1: Fundamentals). And then went to see a movie at Hot Docs about the houses I am learning to design.
Paid eleven fifty for the movie, too.
Fern Forest, I’d be interested in hearing about your new system of measurements. Although I warn you: I’ll probably try to convince you that Base Twelve would be better to use than Base Sixteen…
My idea of a real thrill is to fire up the radial arm saw and see how close I can come to cutting a dado exactly 3/4" wide and 3/8" deep – without using a dado stack!
WOO HOO!
I don’t find any of these things boring at all. I keep nodding and thinking they all sound like fun.
Thats not boring. I read my own diary to put myself to sleep. I never get past the first page…
I work away from home during the week. I talk to my wife several times a day. She has started yelling at me “Do something that you can tell me about.” :smack:
I am boring, and even worse, at the moment, I am bored as well. 
Si
You can’t be all that boring. You have a wife, which means that at least one person found you interesting.
That’s how boring I am. When I finally get around to doing something besides sitting around the house, I enjoy it partly for myself but partly because I’ll have something to report if anyone asks. :smack:
I do the same thing, but I am so boring that I quickly realize that I have two options, either tell my friends about The ‘Exciting’ Things I Did Today, or keep my friends.
I’m so boring that the exciting geeky breakthroughs that make me jump up and down and squeak at work (sadly, that’s literally true) put even my colleagues on the same project, whose success is at least partly caught up in mine, to sleep. :o
