Expression of thanks for the Boredom
To the Chairman of the ‘Bored’


Dear Chairman (or woman) of the Bored,

I am writing to express my delight in the services you provide to your fellow members. It is refreshing (& surprising) to see an organisation which truly represents (and continues to uphold) the true meaning of boredom - to its members.

Firstly, if it weren’t for your monthly newsletters which discuss topics such as ‘How to not have a life and no energy with it’, ‘Don’t have any motivation, you’ll be dead one day anyway’ and ‘Don’t get busy, get bored’, I doubt that I would have developed the lack of motivation which I have today.

I am also happy that the fees your Bored charges to its members have been maintained at such a reasonable rate of $500 a week. Because of these fees, I now have no money and therefore have nothing to do. So now, I clearly understand the company’s economic intelligence behind these fees, because if I had all that extra money I probably would have an interesting life, with lots of assets and plenty of things to do – it really is a great investment to make, to achieve pure boredom.

Overall I just want to thank the Bored for a job well done in doing nothing. I am so happy with your services that I plan to spend a long weekend away twiddling my thumbs.

Please also accept my condolences for the recent passing of one of your trustees. I heard that he was bored to death.

Yours Truly, simply because I have nothing better to do,


Ms Jaded Smith
