This is my guide to how to tell that your bored.

 

Step one-you have nothing to do, nowhere to be.

Step two-you start surfing the internet.

Step three-you let curiosity get the better of you.

Step four-you watch all previous generations of my little pony.

Step five-you are now bored, tormented, scarred, freaked out, shocked, enraged, insane and twitching.

 

Anybody else got a guide to tell when they are bored?

Nah, you covered it well!

You realize you’re either looking up super random stuff online or you’re going through YouTube’s recommendations. That’s usually what happens to me.

When I close Twitter or the forums, stare at my screen for a few seconds, and unconsciously open Twitter or the forums again.

What is this boredom you speak of?

When I don't know what to do.

I eat when I'm bored, or I'll just go into auto pilot for a few hours and basically zone out, even when I'm talking to someone that can still happen.

I get frustrated, not bored. It is a little difference.

Boredom happens when you hear that Glenn Beck song "Loser" play in your head.  

[ExplosionMare 18,007]

Boredom occurs when you keep tapping in and out of random apps, or flip between the same two drawings in a notebook, at least for me

When I scroll through memes in social media

Wow, this is shockingly accurate. I must get bored a lot. When I'm bored it usually means I'm too listless to do anything requiring mental or physical energy. So I make lists or organize things on my computer or in my apartment. Sometimes it's nice to create the illusion of doing something worthwhile.

It is rare to find me bored, at least after 2017 when I added one more interest to my interests list. I don't have time to be bored

When you’re reviving topics that haven’t been posted in for 2 or more years lol

That would be looking for Della Duck and MLP images for possible banners and signatures in my case.

When you try all the forms of entertainment you have possible and you can't stay content with any of them.

When I switch between several video games within a few minutes.

It is difficult for me to get bored with so many problems entertaining my mind currently.
But I've seen people growing anxious when they start getting bored. Because their distractions are over, and they have to face reality. And there is nothing wrong with distractions, unless you are "distracting" 24/7. Then it is a problem.
So, the stress accumulates and they become nervous. Especially when I am around to stop them from running away again, and the pressure keeps building up, and then they start acting erratic. Even violent, but it doesn't matter because they are weak. Because they never had an authority figure to discipline them and make them into useful adults. They have no responsibility, strength, practical skill or use in life, other than the false perception of reality they have made up inside their minds to avoid facing their reality and responsibilities.

And there is no other way to make them recognize the real nature of reality. The survival one. Because they have willingly chosen to be a dead weight on my back. As they were for my grandfather. Another fault of his. Imagine fifty year old children. That is the sad truth.

But yeah. I would like to get bored once in a while. Because that often means you have nothing to do and have become idle. It would be better than to be constantly stressed out because of having to shoulder with their responsibilities.
