With so many things to think about, I don't suppose philosophers should. OTH, know-it-alls probably get bored more often if they're truly know-it-alls.

There is a whole Philosophy of Boredom out there to explore. One needs to put the theory into practice, or v.v.
I hope that one day, in a galaxy...that someone will be brave enough to start a wholesomely new and shiny thread superdevoted to it. Nothing less will do and then we can all die happy with a huge yawn stuck to our face. Or something.

Which forum? You decide.

To be really thrifty, it could be combined with the notion of nagging.
Or not.

Thrilling times ahead.

Are we there yet...

Rarely. That's what Aristotle says is one of the best things about being one. So many fun thoughts to think about!
