A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
无聊
Boring
Life is intrinsically, well, boring and dangerous at the same time. At any given moment the floor may open up. Of course, it almost never does; that's what makes it so boring.

I don't try to be completely calculating in everything I say and do, but there's no way I'm going to talk. There's no reason to. And that's why I'm such a boring interview, because I don't go for the shock value, or smartass answers.

I can't be bothered to go to the gym, though. I honestly just can't be bothered - it's the most boring thing on Earth. I have tried and every six months I go 'right, I'm going to the gym'. Then I do it for two weeks and get so bored by it.
不过，我懒得去健身房。老实说，我就是受不了——这是世界上最无聊的事情。我试过了，每六个月我就去一次“对，我要去健身房”。然后我做了两个星期，感到很无聊。

我丈夫放弃了所有的工作，留在家里陪孩子，我们分担了家里所有的责任。我做所有无聊的事情——比如付账单，他为我们俩做所有的锻炼，我非常感激……我经常为此感谢他。

我想用一个词来概括我对未来的恐惧:无聊。我唯一担心的是:一切都发生了;再也不会有什么令人兴奋、新鲜或有趣的事情发生了……未来只是一个广阔的，符合灵魂的郊区。
