The poet/philosopher Lucretius once remarked about the irony that many of the people who desperately wish for an eternal afterlife are usually the very same people who are constantly bored and wasting their lives. Go figure...
Although there are some exceptions, I tend to think that being bored is usually a consequence of being boring. Of course, we usually tend to assume that our boredom is caused by external factors, and we complain that 'things' are boring, but that may be simply because we don't want to face the harsh reality that often we just don't know what to do with ourselves.
Not Scott Weaver... give him an unlimited supply of toothpicks and some glue, and he'll manage to produce some very impressive forms of art, including a sculpture of San Francisco, complete with with multiple ping-pong ball tours...
What are you creating in your spare time?
