I'm pretty sure that I've never experienced boredom.
Can someone explain it? or whatever you're talking about?
A vague sense of frustration brought on by impatience with the current activity. I suppose that using terminology you frequently utilize, bored would be an imagined state, and it would be frustration that you feel, and this frustration can escalate to anger. Frustration again, is only really a label for stress, but mentally, that's what the emotions are referred to as.
For example, when you're lining up, you become bored, because you don't enjoy it and there's nothing you can do except be stuck in the situation.
I hope this is what you meant by explaining it. If your brain automatically rejects the imaginary/constructed world and only the real travels through the filter, it wouldn't be surprising that you don't think you've felt it before. Alternatively, you could just enjoy thinking so much and have a hyperactive brain, effectively entertaining yourself and never experiencing the frustration.
Yes I get frustrated with a great many situations, - perhaps too many.
My mind just quickly goes off to another place and tries to solve some other problems, or does something like pondering particle physics.
