Help to answer some questions here, that way, you will be helping other people.

Develop some more interests or hobbies...do volunteer work (all ages are welcome)....try a new sport....start studying a topic that you know nothing about....help a neighbor...read a novel....there are lots of things to do!  You should never be bored, ever!!!  Just get busy.

I read or reread or play on the computer............

Sleep or log on to Aka or both, which i have done many times.

There is always something to do around here. Generally it's a matter of detouring my energy to something I'd rather do. Boring, never.  Tedious, sometimes.  
Puzzles, Bananagrams, reading, crafts, exercise, playing the piano, walking the dog, calling a friend or relative (except my sister) all are good diversions. 

Smart people don't get bored, they find something to do , even if it's come on here................lol

Uncork a Barolo and read a book until I doze off.(long after the bottle has emptied)

Sleep or visit the nieghbor.

Watch socks dry.

Ducky

Or you could watch paint dry or grass grow!

Ducky

But I thought that water wouldn't boil if you watched it? (We're all quite creative aren't we? lol)

Talk to my sister in law...

Boredom is a matter of choice, not circumstance. Change your circumstance.

USE YOUR MIND!!   TAP INTO YOUR MENTAL FACULTIES AND YOU'LL NEVER BE BORED!!

If I'm in a lot of pain and can't concentrate or do much I will sleep.  Otherwise, my mind is very imaginative...If I cant do anything upright, noone is around to talk too etc.  I imagine stuff.  akaQA is also awesome when I can't move much!

I am experiencing severe bordom like never before. This is about to change though. I have decided that I'd rather be dragging my ass at the end of the day than getting a calous on my index finger from the remote. This all my wifes fault. A word of advise to all the "BRAVE MEN" out there. Women are NOT always right.

Ducky

You don't really believe that ANYTHING in life is ALL the fault of SOMEONE ELSE, now do you?

Ducky

@lambshank... :)

Ducky

@doo...3 times a year?? That's a lot!! lol

Ducky

@tabber...Wow..sure not my observation unless the woman is a "clinger". I hear, "My husband is about to retire..I hope he finds something to do besides hang around me all day"! (Perhaps the age group makes a difference?) Once again, for both genders, it comes down to having interests and hobbies or not having any, IMO.

I don't have ans answer because I am never bored.

listening to good music  helps with boredom.

I experienced  "Boredom"  when I was young; 8 yrs through 16 yrs,... but did not ever after that. Way too much to investigate, read about,  research,  question,  talk to,   think about about in this world.  And then  to work  the   interesting investigation  of the history of  things,  the history of this world,  and all within it,  as an adult, and was never  "bored".   Being bored means you are not utilizing all your mind or intelligence  at all.

Ducky

"not utilizing your mind or intelligence"...very good way to express it!

Go to the local mental health facility and tell them how I feel. They will give me a script or some meds and by the time I get home I’m ready to mow the grass, take a shower, wash the car and get on AKAqa for a couple of hours and then pay all my bills and organize the kitchen drawers clean out the dirt from behind the kitchen stove, start a load of laundry and clean out the hall closet.   

Ducky

Wow..those must be some kind of powerful meds to work that fast!! In any case, I don't understand taking meds for boredom????

Being bored may not be entirely your fault.  And I think it is a fault.  You are missing life.  You probably were not taught to think for yourself when growing up.   Dominating, strict selfish parents do reduce their children''s ability to think and grow fully.

I am not insulting you, I'm letting you know that you may have to venture out and discover more life.  You need a mentor or socially active friend.      There is LOTS more to say on the subject.

It is unhealthy to live bored. 

Ducky

Yes caddam, there is a whole world of good things out there, ours to discover!! :)

I scratch and sniff parts of my anatomy.

go to opera where they sing a different language and try to figure out what they mean. And/or take somebody with you that understands that language and let them explain it to you.  I did that. Haven't been bored since.

Ducky

I have never been to an opera...should I put it on my list of "things to do"? :)

Write a letter to your relatives.

Read a book

Write in your journal.

Check out the chamber of commerce, see what's happening in your area that's fun.

get a project going.

Learn something new, basket making,photography, take a class on something your interested in.

If your old enough get a job!

Do something to help somebody.....like volunteer to feed or bathe  people in nursing homes. Or visit the ones that don't get any visitors.   Or , tell your mom you're bored, and she'll give you something to do .Or , Go call your grandparents and have a nice chat with them, or write them a real letter.

oh, I'd read. Reading takes me on a adventure

Never get bored thus I don't know
