In the first set of studies, the researchers asked people to describe things that other people do that make them seem boring to you. Then they made a list of the 43 kinds of things mentioned most often, and asked several hundred more people to rate how boring they thought those behaviors were. In the end, they came up with nine categories of boring behavior. Starting with the most boring, they are: Negative ego-centrism: The #1 most boring way of behaving was what the researchers described as being negative and complaining, talking about ones problems, displaying disinterest in others. Banality: talking about trivial or superficial things, being interested in only one topic, and repeating the same stories and jokes again and again. Low affectivity: showing little enthusiasm, speaking in a monotone, engaging in very little eye contact, behaving in a very unexpressive way. Tediousness: talking slowly, pausing a long time before responding, taking a long time to make ones points, and dragging conversations on. Passivity: having little to say, not having any opinions, being too predictable or too likely to try to conform with what everyone else is saying. Self-preoccupation: talking all about yourself. Seriousness: coming across as very serious, rarely smiling. Boring ingratiation: trying to be funny or nice in order to impress other people. Distraction: doing things that interfere with the conversation, getting sidetracked too easily, and engaging in too much small talk
