"Youth is wasted on the young. I can imagine how boring he is in real life if he lacks the imagination to enjoy life at 19.
Tell him to google Paul Hardcastle. "

Wasted it is!
In 1965, Vietnam seemed like just another foreign war
But it wasn't, it was different in many ways
As so were those who did the fighting
In World War II
The average age of the combat soldier was twenty-six
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
N-n-n-n-nineteen

"Only boring people get bored"
I say that too but there is lots of research that shows boredom is good for creativity. Here's one article:

By 19 I had worked in pubs for 5 years, had a potentially lucrative contract screwed up by someone and been taken advantage of by an older woman, can't really say I was bored |

I can imagine that under certain circumstances a 19 year old would feel bored. Life isn't always exciting and if they have various fairly mundane job it might seem that life's boring.
I don't agree that only boring people get bored though. |

"But I will say that boring people make me feel bored.
Some voices can make me feel bored.
I once took an all day course in minute taking. That was deadly  "
Sounds more boring than an evening meeting about the changes in teacher's pay grades, I had to sit in on. |

As far as I can remember, at 19 I had lots of energy and an imagination. Never found time to be bored.
I think it is very sad to imagine what is lacking in this young mans life to make him feel so bored. |

When I was 19 I was in my baggy clothes raver stage. Can't really remember much of it haha! I think in many ways life is harder for teens now. Would have been a disaster if camera phones were everywhere when I was that age. My shenanigans would have been plastered all over the internet before I even made it home |

I just don't understand 'bored'...life is just too full of adventures, stuff to do, people to meet, places to see, new things to learn...the list goes on...
Bored, FFS...if you're bored get off your arse and DO something about it...!!! |

"Isn't it law that people need to be bored by everything at 13, some take longer than others to grow out of it..."
I never used to tell my mum I was bored she would say "I'll soon find you something to do"  |

That Poor 19yr old. He hasn’t got a clue what they’re facing and how hard life could hit them if they don’t get their act together. I wonder how they’ll handle a customer service job (as that’s what’s available as work nowadays) and the constant weekly shopping? All the mundane stuff is going to wear his precious little attention span dry |

I didn't join in with it. You youngsters really should stop generalising about older people.  |

I broke both thighs, knee caps, knee joints and left tib and fib at 19 racing bikes, wasn't the best year.
When you can see your thigh bone laying completely outside of your body and your shins sticking up out of the grass, you know you're having a bad day. |
