Bores and Boredom

So here we are at boredom corner, so can't slip by without talking about boredom. Boredom is apparently state of being surrounded by bores or being alone.Well being a bore is quite easy and simple thing to be, one simply move in and out of the defined circle. If you think, mostly simple people can be a bore as you see clever peoples are seldom bore. But there being simple makes easy for them to flourish as bores. The innate character called human kindness which forbid you from hurting others especially dealing with a simpleton ( boring one). Means what? when a bore approaches and telling some story one always end up showing interest by regular interval nodding and hmmms , probably to avoid causing pain to other and hoping he will understand your trouble and give it up or probably the story will end soon. But doesn't happen ,does it? or else he won't be a bore.

Bores can be categorized as normal ,mediocre and hardcore. Normal ones are like you and me. Everyone has some fixed idea about something and when that fixed idea is tried to plugged into you than you find the doer a bore. However the range of such idea for normal person is quite small and they are most of the time will to accept or atleast agree to the fact that people have different perceptions and opinions. The second category is one who can asked to shut up without actually telling them to. I mean they can be stopped if indicated of the situation. The worst one are the last , the hardcore one. Probably it is best to avoid them. But these people see you from distance and lock onto you as a predator onto its prey. May be you can actually listen to them and counter there point of view aggressively, but you'd need that neck of fault finding sadism not essentially everyone can have. One can develop habit of thinking out aloud as our speech varies substantially from our thinking, thinking loud will convey our real opinion. This will probably get rid of them. Above all can be done assuming you have freedom to do so. Now freedom is another issue. You cannot tell off your father(parental or father in need) , no matter how much of a bore he is.

The above article was written under impression that I am substantially aloof of the zone defining a bore. But now having achieved title of " A super bore" from this article, I might as well stick to idea that bores aren't half bad.
