does boredom kill you??

No, but sometimes this site bores me to sleep.

Boredom incites creativity.

We are in a "Creative Deficit", so to speak. Because the last generation has so much stimuli available to it, it doesn't KNOW how to be bored. When you consider that we carry a mode of entertainment and constant communication around with us in our cellular phones, is it any wonder that boredom seems painful? In my generation it was boredom that caused us to invent games to play, or build forts in the woods with our friends . . . Go swimming at the local watering hole, and just do crazy zany things we would look favorably back on in our adult years.

I feel sorry for those children whom never had to use that part of their brain to thwart boredom by using their own hands and a creative mind.

Not in my household. My kids don't dare say they are bored cuz mommy always has a come back of "if you can't find something to do I will put you to work cuz there is ALWAYS something that mommy needs to do!" Lol! No boredom can not kill. Boredom just means you have idle hands.

Nope. Some of my best ideas come to me when I'm bored out of my gourd.

Well, it certainly can be unhealthy.  An inactive mind and body can deteriorate fairly quickly.  It shouldn't be difficult to find something useful and/or entertaining to do.

I'm slowly dying right now.

No, I don't get bored. I have an endless capacity to be entertained by simple things in my surroundings.

It hasn't killed me yet.

Yes. When I'm doing something, I don't think about completely random things and worry about things that are kind of pointless, being bored eventually leads to me thinking about my flaws and actions, who I am, what validates my existence, why I exist, whether x person hates me or not, whether my fiancée actually likes me (trust issues) and eventually contemplating suicide. Yes, that escalated quickly, didn't it?

It would me. I would waste away from ennui. Thankfully I am rarely bored anymore.

yes I don't like being bored.

Yes. I hate being bored. Boredom really does kill me because usually I'm hanging out with friends outside or something. But basically yes, boredom does kill me. I sometimes just want to say, "please kill me," but it doesn't work that way.
