Need a breather? Two suggestions.
One is a waste of your time, the other
is actually pretty productive and useful because you would be
assisting professional research.
Here we go:

Find
the hidden page on this website.
Once there, you'll find a little
game that you won't be able to crack
unless you're Melissa's cousin
Vinnie. |

|
Go to
Zooniverse,
the world's largest and most popular
platform for people-powered
research. It's awesome.
Pick a project and help out for a
minute, an hour, or however long you
feel like doing it. |

Done all the above and still bored out
of your skull?
Maybe the Smithsonian's
article
The History of Boredom is for
you. Or the
QI website, which of course
stands for Quite Interesting.
Let's just all be glad it's not April
11, 1954, the world's officially most boring day in history.
Read
the article.
And finally, see if you can agree with
Lord Byron. This is from his Don Juan:
Society is now one
polish'd horde,
Form'd of two mighty tribes, the Bores and Bored.
