What is the most boring subject for people to talk to you about?

Someone did a study on this and the one subject that bored the most people really surprised me (made me think, "Oh, so that's why I've been doing wrong all these years", lol). Anyway, let's hear from some of you & then I'll post what the study said.
 

People describing a movie to me. I can’t stand it and one of my lunch buddies does it all time. We tell him in an insulting manner that we don’t want to hear it, but he does anyway.

We’ve said really negative things to him, that I won’t repeat here, and he’s finally gotten the message . . . somewhat.
 
Almost anything coming out of the mouth of one of my so called mates, and I find myself stifling a yawn as they're just getting into their stride, and soon making excuses saying I feel ready for bed, whatever time of the day it might be, (his areas of interest are UFOs, ghosts, conspiracy theories, and engineering, - sounds like a great catch doesn't he! :) ).

'Opera'.............

When one of those women hit a high note and keep it up for half an hour, the potatoes I've got stuck in my ears start to cook. 😊

I love the voices of the classical singers, but admit I cant always get with opera.

This one is a bit of an old chestnut, but people endlessly going on about their children/grandchildren can be wearing cant it, (again I guess I've been guilty more than once! :) ).
 
Their tax returns, their visit to the doctor, their accomplished children and grandchildren, their favorite conspiracy theories, their pets, their aches and pains, their list of medications, their trip to Karjackistan, what they ate, sports...and the list goes on and on! 🙀

Oh my goodness this reminds me of whenever people would go on holidays
and then they would want to come over so they could show you their slides
and there would be a gazillion of 'em

Carry that over to today's times and someone trying to show me their spectacular whatever on a phone. Nothing like squinting at some microscopic picture on some tiny screen while hearing how great and wonderful the whatever is. :sleep:
 
I used to have to listen to my husband complain about work for an hour. I began to stop him when I noticed he was getting wound up for a long-winded rant. I'd ask for just the highlights and he'd say, no, he has to start at the beginning. I'd say but the whole story is too long and boring. Then we'd get into an argument, which was far more interesting. Poor guy, no wonder his heart gave out.
