Boredom

Why do people get so goddamned bored so easily? I mean, sure, it happens every now and again, but in my travels across this barren Internet, I notice it happening WAY TOO OFTEN. Seriously, every day, it's "Man, I am so BORED," "I'm boooooooooooored," et cetera. I know not everyone has the means to travel around to places outside of their own homes - usually those who are under 18 and living with their parents - but hey, that doesn't automatically constitute boredom. There are plenty of things to do in the comfort of your own home. The only excuse you have for being so bored is if you're a sex slave locked in a basement, and in that case, if you have access to a computer, why not call for help?

Otherwise, no, there is no excuse. Read a book. Watch a movie. Go outside and take a walk. Too attached to your music? Bring the iPod or MP3 player along with you. Call a friend. Draw a picture. Write a story. Do some homework. Help a stranger. Pet a dog. Build some weapons of mass destruction. Educate yourself.

I mean, surely, there is something you can do, right? You can't be that uncreative, can you? Can you?!
