What's the most BORING subject people can bring up?

[NewYorkFirstTimer]

Inspired by another thread. Of all the subjects someone can bring up in conversation what's the one that makes you want to roll your eyes so far back you can see behind your brain?

Light-hearted of course

Someone in poor health who makes every conversation about this.

Sorry your not well, but I don't want a blow by blow about dosages, symptoms etc.

You're

Mpg 🙄

Their job

Their mental health journeys.
Their food allergies

1. Parking/gardening/etc disputes with the neighbours
2. Mundane information on the lives of people I don't know and will never meet.

My nan gave me a detailed a description of my cousin's friend's wedding (which my nan hadn't even been to, she was just retelling the story told to her by my cousin). I totally zoned out on that one!

Their holidays. Unless the holiday was a disaster.

My mum loves to discuss, at great length, the exact route taken to get to any destination, and the complex decision making involved.
My FiL is capable of describing almost any mundane event in step-by-step detail. We had forty minutes on checking in at the airport once.
Any subject is boring if it only repeats things you already know and involves no humour, and the longer it goes on, the worse it gets.

Their travels from 15 years ago

Work

The ailments & illnesses of people you have never met. Yes, DM, I am referring to you. I really couldn’t be any less interested in Betty from Number 58’s haemorrhoids.

Woo shit

COvid
the Kardashian tribe
celebrity reality tv
Brexit
Dieting

You and I have the same mum, I think!

Conversation about Love Island/TOWIE/Geordie Shore/I'm a Celeb and other inane reality TV.

Anything relating to their childhood or vivid recollections of some random thing that happened to X or y some decades ago. I don't care. Stop talking to me.

What you ate throughout the day, especially if it's about how little of it it was. And please don't send me pictures of it either. I don't care.

@TheYearOfSmallThings

I don't know what age you are but I wish more people would talk about this because it's absolutely woefully shocking just how ignorant people are about it.

I wish people could be more open, share and tips etx.

As in no one I like does talk about it

Having had to sit next to a client talking about train timetables for 2 hours anything else is pretty acceptable to me.

I'd like to swap my answer to this one.

We once had our new neighbours invite us around for a getting to meet you drink which was nice.

Until they put on their home videos detailing their trip along the canals of Britain in the early 2000s. My face actually hurt after that from trying to keep smiling for 2 hours.

I was going to comment 'it's not so much the topic sometimes, but the way of talking about it' and this post gives a great example.

I have a friend who has a good story to tell you about something that happened at the other end of the building but omg she can't tell it without telling you who she met along the way and which way she turned.

Football

My neighbour can talk about her day forever and she does nothing. She will talk me though her thought process when online shopping, about her decision process on whether to go to the library. so boring
