The first ever Boring Awards (which recognize achievement in boredom) took place last week inside the Royal Theatre in Toronto. In several hotly contested categories the least and the most boring were named. The awards were inspired by the new documentary Boredom, which states that boredom isn’t just a matter of taste. Most people find the same things boring. Is anyone surprised Abbotsford made the most boring city list?
