the Thinker

Hi guys,

I was just sitting in office clearing stories. I just realised that people make the same mistakes all the time and I have to clear them over and over again. To me, now this has become the most boring work on this earth.

I have often heard people complaining about certain things that bore them. But paradoxically, they tend to do those things again and again. Examples:

Waiting for someone at the restuarant. Even when the end limit of one's patience has been tested, he thinks-"let me wait for some more time, maybe he/she will come."

Cooking the same dish every day because your husband/wife/kid will not eat anything else.

Watching the same movie over and over again, convincing yourself that it was your all-time favorite at some point.

Dealing in the same stocks again and again, even though they do not yield any returns.

Visiting your blog every ten minutes a day, thinking that some new comment has been posted. But in the process, one tends to get bored seeing the same old post.

Telling the same story to your kid every night, because he/she refuses to hear any other story.

Hearing your boss passing the same critical comments about your work, which have become obsolete now.

Hearing your friend telling you same thing about his/her girlfriend.


One might also feel like including eating, drinking and sleeping in this list. But I guess that they are necessities of our lives. So we cannot get bored of them. Phew, I guess there are many more things to look out for. Why don't you guys make some personal contributions. So what's "BORING" according to you?

"Waiting for someone at the restuarant. Even when the end limit of one's patience has been tested, he thinks-"let me wait for some more time, maybe he/she will come."


I guess, if a he is waiting for a she and vice versa, it will not be boring...

According to me, I feel bored when I have to blog trot all the regular links I visit just to find the same posts :( (This made me the first one to comment on yours)

Right now, I am bored of the SAP initial access screen.

Hola Amrita! :)
Guess the only thing I really get bored of is the way I look sometimes...
That's why I hardly stay with the same look for longer than a few months...

- Tell me, are you telepathic or something? :}

That was an apt one Amrita, esp. the blog one :P I keep checking my blog, to find whether SOMEONE who was brave enough to read it has commented on it. Other boring ones which I can think of are .. err .. food ! You know that dish is oily, spicy, will get you all worked up the next day morning, but it's so irresistibly inviting, you gotta have a taste, and then end up devouring the whole lot ! And then vow never to touch that dish again !! and then the same story continues. Good one Amrita !

hi manoj, that was a good one. well i guess that was more directed towards me. no, i am not telepathic, though people tend to think so at times.

Hi vijay,

food, aah!! something i favour. your comment made me hungry. hmm, i beg to differ, but i am never bored of food. guess i like committing one of the seven sins very often-gluttony!!!

hi balaji,

hopefully i am not boring others too much. but i guess some people will disagree.

hi manoj,

i do not think it is advisable for me to comment whether anyone should add me to their blog list or not.

I am very happy to know that Deepu.
