We here at Bored Panda have made it our life’s mission to help you fight boredom. But did you know that being bored can even be lethal in certain circumstances? In 2009, researchers from University College London found that adults who reported high levels of boredom have a higher risk of passing away from heart disease early.

Feel like fighting boredom yet? You might want to join the folks at the “Not Interesting” subreddit, where they share all kinds of mundane and random pictures to fight the boredom monster. Sometimes, you just have to see the extraordinary in the ordinary, and having a chuckle at things that are not interesting at all might be the first step in that.

    The scissors were not the problem! I've resorted to scissors many times, in a pinch, as I am prone to misplacing small items like clippers. Scissors can work beautifully. But I did have a friend who liked to file hers like this, way back in middle school. There were folded illustrations of her depicted as Wolverine circulating among the boys. I hope she's well (last I heard, she was designing museum exhibits and raising twins; I'm going to assume she now keeps her nails sensibly short).
