Most boring day of the year

    Hi, as I have nothing at all to do I decided to make a list of why I feel that Christmas day is the most boring day of the year.

    1. There's **** all on television.
    2. One has to put up with the family all day long.
    3. Pubs are closed.
    4. Having to put up with small children all day.
    5. Having to go for a walk so I wouldn't get shouted at by parents for not going to mass.
    6. Turkey

    I'm sure there's more that could be added to the list but I can't think of anything as of now. I'd be interested to see what day of the year others think is the most boring and your reasons why.

    Happy Christmas
    Pat

    Bank Holidays during the year have a similar vibe, and you usually get lashed out of it on the Tuesday at work the next day.

    No wonder you are bored if you have to resort to the pub and television for entertainment. Happy Christmas :)

    I just watched Die Hard 1 and 2 while eating my body weight in celebrations and roses and in an hour Trading Places is on. That's a pretty kick ass day in my opinion.

    I'd genuinely hate to think like the OP. One of my favourite days of the year.

    Nice sleep in, then breakfast. Went for a run in the lovely weather, amazing dinner and wine, sleep on the couch for a bit watching TV, then go for pudding and coffee. Probably have a few beers now soon and watch TV by the fire.

    For one day of the year I don't see how you could complain... I suppose I'm lucky to have family around etc...

    The answers to your points

    1. Internet or stuff you have on whatever recording box you have.
    2. No answers
    3. Can't live without it for one day. Have you not got something at home visit friends
    4. Ok all day may be hard but its the kids magic of christmas that makes it great
    5. You poor thing get a backbone and say no i listen to a whine for a while.
    6. Turkey is beautiful as well is the ham, wine, irish coffee, beer.

    Off now for an Irish Coffee

    Happy Christmas

    Most boring day of the year? I'm guessing you're not working yet. The most boring day (s) of the year is Monday. Fact.

    Tbh tis been a pretty good day for TV etc, its always nice to have one day that you do something different aka not very much, stay in cosy PJs all day which i never do, have a big dinner and sweets and just chill a bit :)

    4. Having fun with small children all day.
    5. Not having to go for a walk . Unless you want to.
    6. Turkey, ham, steak, wine, chocolates, cake, trifle, beer, pressies.

    I'm sure there's more that could be added to the list but I can't think of anything as of now. But anyway, Christmass is magical and I love it.
    Happy Christmas

    1. DVD,listen to music or read a book.

    2. You don't, you are an adult. You are allowed to do your own thing.

    3. Boo hoo!

    4. See #2.

    5. Starting to doubt you are actually an adult.

    6. Cook yourself a chicken.

    I think it's a lovely day. Nice lie in, lovely brekkie, took it nice and handy cleaning, gave a hand with the cooking, had a few drinks, played with my niece and all her new toys, now heading out to the bar for a few drinks with the family. Can't complain, an I love to complain!

    i had to go for a walk to pretend to go for mass ?
    seriously , i can not fathom the logic behind that statement

    and one thing puzzles me , they tell you to go to mass , yet they must not attend themselves , because if they did, they would see you were not there :confused:

    methinks they wanted you out of the gaff so they could use the special gifts they got each other , al la trainspotting , just a thought :eek:
