Lightbulb Most boring person you know/have known?

As title. Most boring for me was a bloke I used to go work with. He'd be forever telling us how he was going to buy this house, buy that house, was gonna buy that house, nearly bought this house but how his missus always said 'no'.

Along with the when I was younger I shagged 50 birds before I was 20 years old, could drink 10 pints and merely be relaxed, got confused with being a doorman as he was so big and intimidating.

Not forgetting the full breakdown on the Friday of what DIY work he was going to attempt on the upcoming weekend, then on Monday getting the full review. THEN later in the week he'd catch himself out to the fact he did NO DIY work at all - then get all defensive and go up a few pitches to a high yelping note at them same time. Always made us laugh that one.

Imagine this week-in week-out....!!!

What experiences have you lot on 'ere 'ad ??

I would'nt say he is boring, he can be annoying sometime's, but now i've learnt to just accept that's the way he is, i think he's quite amusing, in fact i may even see about starting up a Pslewis fan club, anybody interested in joining?

Hello. We definitely don't know each other. I know a couple on here but they rarely post these days, if ever.

Posting ones real name on here would be suicide as my son's school-mates use this site. I pity you if you knew someone like this though!! Mind numbing.

This reminds me of some of the "Have you ever met a compulsive liar?" threads - those are class!

Anyone who talks about a single subject and believes all others are interested. Oh ye and any known bull****ters, can't be bothered listening to a story and trying to figure out how much if any is true.

Could be a few on here with a car obsession that might qualify

One guy who always talks about deals he's making, he's never lost any money on any deal if you believe it all yet he has no money, go figure.

Another guy who constantly talks about computers to me and one who makes a reference to his dad in every conversation, eg ye my dad has one of them, my dad knows someone who did that. Why!?

Anyway I'm boring myself talking about it

I work with a guy who we affectionately call 'Daley' (after the decathlete).

Every day we get the full treatment about how he represented his county at squash, how he could have been a professional footballer, how he regularly makes 100+ breaks at snooker, was an amateur boxing champion etc etc.

Funny thing is, he has never played any sort of sport with anyone in the office, nor has anyone seen him do anything (or seen the proof).

He is a fat knacker who struggles to walk up a flight of stairs. When I asked him once outright how some one who appears so unfit could run marathons he replied, "I am natural athlete who is blessed with large amounts of adrenaline which gets me through most things" .

It was funny at first but 2 years he is starting to annoy.

"they only put chevrons on a corner on the road if someone has died"

.....so, what if there have been 10'000 near fatalities but no actual deaths??

"no no no, there would be no chevrons in that case".

Err...ok.

CupraT, we have someone in our office who sounds very similar to your man. The thing is he actually goes ahead and plays the sports after bigging himself up and makes a complete **** of himself!
He bores the knackers off everyone in the office too, with totally inane conversation. When he's chatting to someone they alway seem to have the look of a distressed, trapped animal who cannot get away.

Someone alikened him to Colin Hunt (Fast Show) which sums him up perfectly in both personality and dress sense


P.S. we lost something like 15-5 with him in goal in a company footy match. People were shooting from the halfway line and scoring. He even let in a ball that was passed back to him from a defender! We did laugh and affectionately nickname him lard-hands at the time

I sit next to a guy at a client site, who always cracks the most astoundingly obvious and childish quips all day, e.g. "I'm off" invariably leads to "I was wondering what the smell was!" with a cheeky grin.

Nothing, it's just I wouldn't have though you'd be th type that's all - no offence intended.

"of course I smoke weed I do it all the time, every weekend and night it's only poofs like you that don't you ****".

Err....ok then. Sorry.

Chaps be careful because I recall working with a gay guy - good bloke by the way - who would spend a large amount of his day purchasing engine components - spending 1000's every week .The guy used to say he was a top fuel dragster and not only that he was a legend in Sweden - champion .
Anyway I was invited to Santa Pod (I think thats where it was -step back into the 70's) to see him race.
Yup - he was the business .Had a team of at least 6 looking after his dragster.
He just jumped in and blew the field away!
Back to work Monday morning , buying more parts!!!!!!!!

So he was telling the truth, fair play!!

Believe me, the person to which I reference wasn't so much a compulsive liar, simply just as boring and clueless as one could ever be.
