with either too much time on their hands, or avoiding what they should be doing?
I am in the latter camp.

Pure work avoidance on my part...

halfwitpicker · 06/12/2018 12:30

am supposed to be finishing a book.

Writing or reading?

I'm supposed to be writing a book chapter.

^^

We're ALL supposed to be writing best sellers on here! Just waiting, for you know, the stars to align then I'll start....

Pure avoidance for me too. Avoiding cleaning the house, work, and being an adult. Also trying to avoid spending money.

Letsmoveondude · 06/12/2018 12:34

Avoiding what I should be doing :-) bored of avoiding what I should be doing though. So maybe a mixture of both :-)

I only come on here because I am bored. I find it amusing the rubbish people post on here except of course when some one is being abused then it turns serious.

Honestly why does people ask a bunch strangers on the internet if its okay to take their child out of school for the day. WTF is that all about are they children themselves.

Currently procrastinating. I'm self-employed and the last week has consisted of mostly 10-12 hour days as there was a massive deadline to meet. Totally knackered but still have some more to do.

I have plenty I could be doing but am currently trapped under a baby.

Dinos - your babe is beautiful.

Notonthestairs · 06/12/2018 13:26

Oh my goodness what a gorgeous baby.

Yup I'm bored/avoiding stuff. Loving the dog and baby pictures though.

Would rather lurk mumsnet than a lot of the shite that's on tv and i come on at lunch time because i have nothing in common with my team at work so nobody to talk to!

Greatorb · 06/12/2018 13:40

bored bitter

MsGrohl · 06/12/2018 14:04

Gorgeeoouuss baby Dinosforall!!!

Not bored here, just CBA to do what I am supposed to be doing! All I see here is very normal human behaviour and the guilt that goes along with it (but shouldn't)!

Ladymacmuff · 06/12/2018 14:18

Avoidance here. Many tasks queuing for attention. Would love to be bored. Bored would be a flipping luxury.

abacucat · 06/12/2018 14:19

Just been doing some of my tasks and come back on to find a comment deleted. Boggling what someone could have said on this thread to get deleted!!

Not bored. I like to drop in when I'm having a coffee because I don't have any friends to chat to and it's nice to hear other people's perspectives sometimes!

AnotherPidgey · 06/12/2018 14:26

Not bored, just procrastinating on my entry to the World Procrastination Championships.

Now housework, that's boring!

incallthebloodytime · 06/12/2018 14:29

OP that poster is getting deleted on a lot of threads. Inflammatory comments seem to be their thing

NoDancingPolicy · 06/12/2018 14:29

I work by myself from home and use MN in my many many bored moments - it gives me some human contact during the day.

differentstrokesfolks · 06/12/2018 15:08

some awful old badgers on here, real curtain twitcher MN snowflakes (if there is such a thing). Of course ready-to-be-insulted-at-the-drop-of-a-hat and thick as mud while they're at it!

BUT occasionally some bright spark, that gives me pause for thought, even a laugh, and hope that there is intelligent life on earth!

differentstrokesfolks · 06/12/2018 15:08

I meant ready-to-be-offended, sorry!

Justkeeepsmiling · 06/12/2018 15:10

I started using MN because Facebook got boring lol. I can relate to much more on here

Dotty1970 · 06/12/2018 15:19

Definitely bored, I'll be gone when I'm back full time
