"I don't know about you, but...

Boredom must actually be a relatively modern emotion, as the first recorded use of the word 'boredom' is in the novel Bleak House by Charles Dickens, written in 1852, although the expression 'to be a bore' had been used in the sense of being tiresome or dull since 1768!
