    If there’s one lesson I’ve learned in my 48 years, it’s that boring moments are underrated and moments are overrated. Everyone says they are bored and want some excitement, but excitement doesn’t mean good things. More often than not, it is something bad. I’d rather have a boring day than an exciting one.

    I still hope that one day politics will be boring again. No “if the Republican gets into office democracy might fail.” No “Trump is calling for the arrest of anyone who spoke up against him.” Just “the two major party candidates have differing opinions but both would lead this country competently.” Make Politics Boring Again!

      You claim to only have 48 years on this earth, but you talk about getting back to a time that hasn’t existed in at least that long. Are you just reminiscing about rose-tinted stories you heard from your elders? The “good times” they want to return to were anything but for many of us.
