In the U.S., you have to be a deviant or die of boredom. William S. Burroughs


It is only a step from boredom to disillusionment, which leads naturally to self-pity, which in turn ends in chaos. Manly Hall


Since boredom advances and boredom is the root of all evil, no wonder, then, that the world goes backwards, that evil spreads. This can be traced back to the very beginning of the world. The gods were bored; therefore they created human beings. Soren Kierkegaard

When it comes to clothing, television series, thought, and culture, some things change and some things stay the same. Some things get replaced while others get modified. I often wonder how this human desire for change, this boredom, has on politics and our culture in general.

Boredom can create apathy. Some people enjoy their boredom as a unique freedom from anything else. Boredom has a way of making people want change for change's sake.

I'm not saying that boredom is a major player in how culture shifts but it must be present in some respect as it's a part of the human condition. I wonder just how far the ripples from all the bored people affect the political pond.

Even if an idea is good and valid it may run the risk of being boring. Boring ideas are easily forgotten while it seems more controversial ones are the only ones worth fighting for. Why is everything so controversial all the time? Why can't we leave well enough alone? Was it not good enough in the first place? Are we all truly unhappy with the situation? Are we just f*cking bored?

I look at this bathroom legislation. I had a dream last night that I was sitting next to a transvestergender at a bar. I introduced him to someone on my left and I said 'he' and of course the trans corrected me and told me he would like to be called a she. I said I'd like to be called master. After apparent refusal, I said if he didn't want to play my game, I wasn't going to play his. :P

It's silly but when I woke up, I laughed at the truth in it. You're one thing but wish to live in a fantasy world where you are another. You make others play along in this fantasy! I want to do that. I want people to think I have a 20" dong, can bench press 1000 lbs, and have climbed Mt. Everest - hell, I own Mt. Everest - please refer to me as SupremeBeingBetterThanMeMyMaster because that's how I feel. I mean, I really feel great, I really feel like I'm better than everyone else alive, and well if you call me anything but what I am - Supreme Master of all the Universe, I'm going to get butt hurt really, really bad.

It's all ridiculous to me but so ridiculous as to get me riled up enough to do something? And I'm referring obviously to the bathroom situation or transvestergenderites in the military? NOOOO. I'm bored! I sit back with my popcorn and watch the horror show. Entertain me. Sometimes I feel other people are the same way. Either it's not important enough to them (because they have their own lives to worry about) or they're bored and want to see what's going to happen next in this real life t.v. episode we call the United States.

The only logical conclusion to this whole thing is one large bathroom and one separate closed off one, or all separate bathrooms. It's the only logical conclusion and when it gets there we'll all be bored again. Until that time, we have to drag out this drama with the whole 'who knows what it is' using a gender specific bathroom.

What about the Presidents being selected? That's not entertaining anymore... let's toss these bozos out and replace them with something more exciting. Please enter Trump and Bernie. I hate using both their names in the same sentence because they're so different. One has lived a life time in government with the same platform and the other wants to make America great again (how, no one really knows).

Boring is dangerous. The government relies on boring. It's this massive pyramid scheme and to anyone involved with investment planning knows: Boring is good. Keep things the same. Don't mix it up too much. Let's keep this gravy train choo choo chooing. Enter another Bush and another Clinton!!! Wow, they went full retard in the boring department.

And the audacity of Bush!!! Brave man! This man, whose brother killed/wounded thousands of Americans for NOTHING is running for office?!?!?! YES, remember that??? Very entertaining stuff then. Even his own Mother condemned the candidate by saying that it was time for another person from another family to have a shot at the presidency and then she changed her mind later. Mom, can, you um, you know about, um, democracy but I want MMMYYYY turrrrn, he got hisss turn.... and she buckled. He lost out quick. Kudos to the Republicans. They earned a little respect from me by seeing him out relatively quickly.

Hillary. What can I say about this lady other than I have voted democrat ever since I could vote and this will be the first election that I will not vote democrat. I'd rather dress up in a revolutionary coat of wool and one of those weird George Washington black hats and play a flute the day of the election than vote for her. Maybe I can play so well that the soldiers from the revolutionary war will rise from their graves and put a stop to her.

A first lady becoming president. I read an article that her daughter had a child and the headline was something like - another future president. I couldn't believe how boring democracy had become in the eyes of the american people.

I see on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiocracy the full name is President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.

Anyone with Mountain Dew for a middle name has got to be pretty boring. Like Iggy Pop, Chairman of the Bored.

I'm bored. I'm the chairman of the bored, I'm a lengthy monologue
I'm livin' like a dog. I'm bored. I bore myself to sleep at night, I bore myself in broad daylight coz I'm bored, Just another slimy bore. I'm free to bore my well-bought friends And spend my cash until the end coz I'm bored. I'm bored. I'm the chairman of the board. I'm sick. I'm sick of all my kicks. I'm sick of all the stiffs. I'm sick of all the dips. I'm bored. I bore myself to sleep at night I bore myself in broad daylight coz I'm bored I'm bored Just another dirty bore. All right doll-face Come on and bore me. I'm sick. I'm sick of all my kicks. I'm sick of all the stiffs. I'm sick of all the dips. I'm sick. I'm sick when I go to sleep at night I'm still sick in the broad daylight coz I'm bored. I'm bored. I'm the chairman of the. . . BORED!
Idiocracy wrote:The film tells the story of two people who take part in a top-secret military hibernation experiment, only to awaken 500 years later in a dystopian society where advertising, commercialism, and cultural anti-intellectualism have run rampant and that is devoid of intellectual curiosity, social responsibility, and coherent notions of justice and human rights. The film was not screened for critics and distributor 20th Century Fox was accused of abandoning the film.
The USA is a deeply nihilistic society, afflicted by an epidemic of boredom, essentially due to spiritual emptiness producing a grave absence of meaning, purpose and direction. Our current book selection Tribe helps to explain this problem, with affluenza producing a culture of anomie, isolation, depression, anxiety, materialism, stupidity, obesity, greed, sloth and vacuity. Politics as entertainment, vote for Marvin the Martian, ka-boom. A friend of mine recently gave me a fantastic pile of Kierkegaard books. I can't imagine what K would have thought of people being so bored as to transgesterdigitate themselves.

Yes, this internet identity has been stolen from the movie Idiocracy.

I tend to think imagination and purpose are lacking. Cohesion and responsibility towards one another is lacking as well. If this was truly a democracy, we'd be forced to iron out wrinkly issues between ourselves instead of hire henchmen to do our dirty work. If anything should be illegal, it should be not participating in government... I'm living in a dream world, though. People are just content enough not to do much to stir the pot. We could have learned to work together rather than protest and riot against each other.
