"Nothing Was Expected"
We have filled almost every awkward little pause that used to exist in a day. There is always a video to watch, a conversation to check, something to read, something to listen to, something happening somewhere.
Which is wonderful, really.
I don't particularly want to return to sitting in a waiting room reading a six-month-old magazine because it is the only object available to me.
But I wonder if boredom wasn't entirely useless.
