PlainGold Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Tested my attention. 20,000 leagues under the sea. And the Circle by Dave Eggar, dense and a very dull experience.

Real_Badgirl Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 The 2011 official NEC (National Electric Code) book. I'm currently in school to be an electrician, but holy sh*t is the NEC boring. I could bore people to death reciting code articles from it.

Mr. Scratch Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Someone once told me they found Thompson's books boring, I mean what do you even say to that, apart from every swear that comes off the top of your head?

RiaJay21 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Someone once told me they found Thompson's books boring, I mean what do you even say to that, apart from every swear that comes off the top of your head? I ... that's ... yeah, I'm not even sure of what to say to that. There are a great many things that Thompson's books were; boring was not one of them. Also, on the subject of required school reads being boring - I guess I never got that. I enjoyed analysing the text, for the most part; if I'd gone to university, I would have studied English/American Literature. A lot of the books we studied wouldn't have been ones I'd necessarily picked to read myself, but I didn't finish them feeling as though I never wanted to read another word by those authors again.

Mr. Scratch Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Yeah and someone said that Naked Lunch was boring lol. Crazy. If someone who was a fan of Bukowski's work would say that then I'd provide them with enough lead to take them inside Chernobyl.

I cucked Alex Jones Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I found a A Separate Peace pretty boring. Of all the relevant books we could have read in 9th grade my teacher had to choose A Separate f*cking Peace.

na89340qv0n34b09q340 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) Naked Lunch is not interesting. Lol okay bro. I haven't read the whole thing, just the first few chapters, so maybe there's a really neat part that I missed out on that makes everyone love the book, but I couldn't stick with it from what I'd read. It's unique, but not very fun to read in the way it's written. It's like trying to decipher time cube or that guy who went on that rant full of anti-semitic and racist words that doesn't actually make sense. I guess some people are into that, but not me. This thread asked for opinions anyway, jerk.

Mcquiz Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Anything from Shakespeare. It is awful to read and no matter how deep the story is it won't make those books great if you read 40 pages and you have no idea what's going on.

na89340qv0n34b09q340 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Anything from Shakespeare. It is awful to read and no matter how deep the story is it won't make those books great if you read 40 pages and you have no idea what's going on. If you ever happen to need/want to read Shakespeare in the future get a version with notes or something. If the notes don't make everything clear make your own notes and pause when you need to to take in what's going on. Barnes and Noble publishes really good versions of Shakespeare that have incredibly helpful notes right on the same page.

Adler Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) The Biblesh*t, I actually like the Bible. Old Testament, that is. New Testament isn't really interesting except for Revelations. Too bad they didn't include Jesus' Babby Adventures in the canon. Brings more depth into his character. Twilight. Nuff said.You actually read Twilight? I f*ckin didn't lol.

Gutslab Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) Some of the sh*t in high school was pretty boring, like Jane Eyre and The Scarlett Letter. The Grapes of Wrath was another one, although I did enjoy the book by the end but it was still a boring read.
