bored people Options

[brooklyneast05]

i hate bored people. it really pisses me the f*ck off when people tell me they are bored. i don't care if someone is bored, be bored but don't tell me about it like you expect me to fix it. i get really pissed at people who can't entertain themselves and they always have to have someone entertaining them. if you're that bored why don't you just go do something? i don't understand it.


help a out, tell me that this grinds your gears too



this is going to be my reaction to the next bitch who whines about how they are bored

I used to think that whenever people vented, ranted, or otherwise complained to me, they were seeking advice and somehow expected me to help the situation. Sometimes I even got nervous at the prospect of having to give advice. But then I realized that, for the most part, when people complain, they don't really want advice, they just want to complain. People seem to have a need to voice their frustrations or problems, even if they don't expect (or don't want) anyone to actually help.

I see a proclamation of boredom the same way. When someone says "I'm bored", they probably aren't expecting you to entertain them. They probably just want to complain.

I guess this isn't always the case; I mean, from time to time, CBers post an "I'm bored, entertain me" thread.

What prompted this rant, anyway?
