Like if you see/do/listen to a certain thing, you never, ever become bored with it?

I bore easily. I also can become fascinated with the most inane, mundane things as well. I used to spend hours as a kid with a little "river" I made downhill from a water pump leak at our property. I would study the flow and build dams to change flow, etc. Hours I tell ya. LOL!

I almost never get bored of anything. I always have one song on repeat and it can take hours before I get the least bit tired of it.
Right now it's Miyavi - Thanx Givin' Day ^^' (yes, I'm a j-fag)

Its very (and I mean VERY) rare that I get bored with anything, I seem to have damn near infinite patience for anything whether its doing one thing repeteadly or nothing at all for extended periods of time.

The amount of patience I have with a task is inversely proportional to its importance. With songs, I tend to listen to a few over and over again until I get sick of them. I could sit outside watching the view from my house all day though.

My favorite songs I can listen to over constantly, even specific parts. I still love the same songs from my favorite band that I've loved as a teenager (15 years ago).

Video games, however, I may leave alone if I get stuck on a part and the challenge and fun of the gameplay isn't worth the anxiety of defeat (Ninja Gaiden comes to mind; that game was HARD).

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know. :roll:

I can listen to the same song (only ones that I like in the first place) over and over and over for literally hours, and not get bored with it, but I get bored pretty eadily, so I either go play piano or go online and do pretty much nothing.

I don't get bored! In fact, I'm not sure what 'bored' really means, in all candor. I can stare at my hand for an hour and be quite content. Etc.

Possible exception: Pro-Golf & Soap Operas.



I know the Chairman of the Board/Bored now though. The CEO of Bored!

I never get bored with going out with my friends in the evening. I also never get bored of going to my clubhouse.

I don't get bored very easily. For example, I've been obsessed with Hellsing and Trinity Blood for the past 18 months straight. I've seen all the episodes, read all the manga, know every character like the back of my hand - and every day my love for them grows rather than diminishes. I'm also never bored with drawing - it'll be a lifelong hobby, that's for sure.

As far as music goes, I've noticed by the play count on iTunes that the minimum number of times I listen to a song I enjoy is around 50 times total before I start getting bored with it. Songs I really love get played at least 100, and two songs in particular have been played over 200 times.
