The Boring Thread
respond with the most boring thing you can think of?

I was just thinking that noses should have evolved to the point that they wouldn't have dribbly snot when one has a cold. It should not happen!!!!!!

Anything boring you've been thinking about?

15. Why do men in movies make such a big deal out of shaving?
It's always a big production, with lots of cream, and acrobatic contortions to get the skin just taut enough (or something).

And when did women start shaving their legs? Did they have to shave with those straight razors back in the day?

25. I had bowties because
I had to leave my car in the shop over the weekend and did not feel like walking to the store in the snow to get something less boring. And Scrabble may be cool, but playing with a computer is boring.

Now, if ya wanna talk about my morning, that was less boring. There was like an earthquake in my car, and then it smelled all hot and filled up with smoke. So that's what happens when the idler and tensioner seize up and it throws the serpentine belt. I already knew what happens when the serpentine belt walks off by itself, but the earthquake and the smoke made it so much more interesting. But this is the boring thread and I'm off topic.

31. My nose itches
It is that sort of tingly feel you get on one side up one nostril, but if you move your nose just right you get a stabbing pain.

I wonder if there is something up there.
