Dno what ur talking about dude o_0. I'm almost never bored. Only when I'm forced to stay somewhere like DMV, jail, etc, where I don't have freedom. Even then, a Kindle keeps me occupied just fine. So yeah, I dno. I'm not bored at all.

Blargh. Dogs are dumb. I know someone who said he was jealous of mentally handicapped guy who was always happy.

I don't care. I am myself. I wasn't born mentally handicapped (afaik).
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

I think that Louis CK quote is appropriate here..
"I'm bored" is a useless thing to say. You live in a great, big, vast world that you've seen none percent of. And even the inside of your own mind is endless. It goes on forever inwardly. Do you understand? The fact that you're alive is amazing, so you don't get to be bored


But hey, what would you do without a job? I never had an answer to this until recently.. because I could never think of things particularly important to me. But now, I look back on my 5 years of university and actually thought about what made those years worthwhile. What do I remember in detail? It's nothing to do with studies or assignments -- I do remember one or two stunning exceptions from amazing profs that changed my view of the world. But apart from that, I don't think there was anything valuable (long-term) there. Nothing to do with gaming (I literally care not at all for all the games I've played; of course they were fun at the time.. but years later, no fucks given), nothing even to do with the usual drinking, smoking etc that college students do. Just like gaming, fun nights but long-term, no care. Definitely had nothing to do with the 2 years of fulltime work I did between my studies... I give not a single fuck to any day spent in the office, when looking back on it several years later. Sure, at the time it was kind of exciting and challenging, but it's similar to gaming/etc in that respect.

No, really, it was just the memories I had with friends and family that was the most important. The only things I remember in detail tbh. Actually it's kind of a big realization for me. So would I be bored without a job? Not at all. I'd welcome the extra time and spend as much of it with friends and family as I could. I do my best now, but it's only constrained to a couple of nights during the week and weekends. A few hours here and there.. dwarfed completely by my daily work grind which I know I won't give a fuck about, years later. Kind of sad actually.
(\o/)  If you want it, you find a way. Otherwise you find excuses. No exceptions.

who says you can't be happy like your dog? Hell, I'm content in everything I do. I enjoy hard work, yet I appreciate the moments of "boredom" spent lounging in the summer sun or in front of TV as well. Just enjoy life. There doesn't have to be any divine purpose to it, just do what you want and try to accomplish something meaningful. Wake up every morning and say "this is going to be the best day ever". It works, I'm not kidding.

Happiness is a state of mind. It's a choice. You can be happy now. You don't have to get x achievement or x thing to be happy. Everything is an illusion anyway.
Without a paddle up shit creek.

What's the problem with having nothing to do anyway? Modern society's pandering to the obsessive need to succeed, constantly improve, or do something is a pretty big fail imo. The next time you find yourself bored, go read a book by Henry Miller or Theodore Dreiser.

But it's really all about perspective.

Living things like to have food + shelter + water + love. Most living things spend 100% of their awake life just trying to obtain food and maintain a safe shelter. Since humans have pretty advanced societies, we don't have to worry so much about it and have more time to play. Humans aren't the only animals that play; primates and dolphins also do, since they're intelligent as well.

Just play more and you won't be bored.

Maybe it's your interpretation of humanity that sucks.
