    What the Dickens? Bored. Now.

    Boredom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Apparently the git invented it.

    Goodness me.

    Considering how tedious & overlong most of his writings are, I'm not totally surprised.

      I like the TV dramatisations. He had some great story lines - and told some stories with a moral purpose.

      But Dickens world in Chatham - that is boring...

          People today can't handle a good story which takes time to get going and doesn't feature car chases.
