I know someone who does not have any sense of humor and whose ideas are so generic and so predictable that she qualifies to be called a boring person and she knows it. She actually told everyone at a meeting that she is boring. As for me, no, I am far from boring. People are either interesting or boring. Which one are you and why do you say so? As for me, I can assure you that I am not like any ordinary person. Weird? Well maybe a bit.LOL. I dye my hair, dress fashionably, care for and love my pets, love to dance gangnam style, etc. How about you?

I am not sure. May be I am a boring person. 1 of my friend always tell me that I am a very boring person. As far as I know, I am a very humorous person and I have a personality which makes people around me to laugh and have fun. I am not a person who will speak much, but I can't see people sitting quietly. I will make people to involve in activities. She calls me the most boring person because, I am not an outgoing person and I do not go out partying, and the most perfect reason she gives is, I am totally spiritual and once I start thinking about god, there is nothing else that will get into my mind. She calls me a sage also not to forget. Other than that, the other factor is, my dressing. I love only cotton plain tops and other very simple cloths but they certainly give me a dignifies look. I don't like colors in my dress and that is why, she calls me boring. And i will wear clothes which will never reveal my skin anywhere no matter what. I wear a lot of collared tops and no deep necks too. Totally, she finds me totally a boring person other than the way I change the ambience of the place I'm in!

@Cutie : Yeah, i sort of find myself interesting in my own way and I believe that each person has their own way of living life! @hereandthere : That's right, I am a very good listener and I do give her those advices which I feel are best to my knowledge and I am there for her whenever she is into anything wrong or bad! Thank you, I believe in being true to myself because, I don't like fake people. When I don't like to see fake people, how will I let myself be fake??

and yet she is still friends with you, which means you also have good traits that she really likes, like maybe you're a good listener and gives good advice about things she can't discuss with other people. i think it's good that you stay true to yourself.

I don't think people who don't have any sense of humor are boring, it might be interesting to find something to shock them in a good way. However I don't think I'm a boring person, or at least I'm not boring inside. I like replying to jokes with other jokes, but I'm reserved and a bit mysterious too. People around me think I'm crazy, I'm only myself, why should I follow the others? I'm a human, not a sheep! People who try to look alike others to feel accepted and people with no personality aren't boring, they're just losers!

Boring people are a subgenre of losers or viceversa I think. =D

I know for a fact that I have a great sense of humor just as I also know that my lifestyle is really boring. I do not have a social life, I have one girlfriend in my entire love life, I do not have any vice so I don't bother having a night life. I could make you laugh, but I am usually serious in most occasions. So if you ask me, I'd say I am boring.

Oh, I doubt that. Being with me for an hour would probably kill you of boredom unless we talk about something I am very interested about. Other than that, I just can't thing of ways to be interesting at all.

I am person with good sense of humor. I have to be most especially that I conduct lectures and training from time to time. I need to keep my participants awake and because of this, I have develop a good sense of humor. I have always noted that if you are to serious especially when you conduct lectures and speak the whole day, particpants will be bored. So for me, I have to come up with jokes, along the course to bring back the liveliness of the program.

I think I am a boring person....because I don't talk nor converse with anyone else...I just listen to whenever people are talking...if they will ask for my opinion, well, I can air mine...but you will not expect something from me to converse with others...maybe it is my way of staying away from getting offended on what other people will say or talk about me.

I don't know sometimes I think I am boring because I can be really shy and quiet but then put me on a dance floor with music and I am NOT boring at all! Lol. I like to laugh, as long as the jokes not on me. I like to have fun and meet new people even though I am shy at first... I think more outside the box than some people. I am very intelligent emotionally and spiritually, but not so much book smart. So, I am not sure what I am! LOL.

Hi Cutie How do you define a Boring Person? c'mon, a person without humor cannot be termed as a boring one as I do find such people more interesting Okay, not all of them, but definitely some of such people are quite interesting. I dont know much about how you would term me but I try to be the way I am. I can be humorous at times, thoughtful at others and even the thinker many a times. But definitely, I do like music, songs, rains, chats... And the most of the times, I love to play the kid within me. Boring... Still? Ah, I cannot dance today as I have arthritis but I can sing you some songs... without bothering how bad my voice can be when I sing out of the Shower

It really depends on my mood. If I am in a bad mood, of course there is no fun in me but if I am at a high mood, I am close to being crazy haha

I will say, I am not a boring person. I just consider the emotions of the group. But I am a joker in the eyes of my family and friends. There is no dull moment.

i did have an officemate who doesn't speak unless spoken to, even when we're all having lunch together around a small table. even when we don't have much work, she'd just sit there while everyone else is chitchatting. i may not friendly or bubbly or funny, but i'm not that extreme either!

She is one extremely boring person, that office mate of yours.

I don't think I'm boring, haha but sometimes I easily get bored. I think it really depends on a person's perspective. If one person finds you interesting one person might find you boring. What you like and your interests might be boring to some but to others it can be interesting. So one can't really say that she's boring. It just depends on how people see you and how you see yourself.

Hmmm...I think most people who are here in Mylot are classified as non-boring. Otherwise, how can you keep up with the discussions?

Personally, I don't believe anyone is boring. Everyone is completely unique, regardless of whether they or anyone else realizes it. To lable someone as boring is a cop out.
