CHAIRMEN OF THE BORED

If you’re bored of the exciting and unusual it might be time to join the Dull Men’s Club at DullMen.com. November is Fig Month over at the DMC, where they are celebrating the fact that figs are good for you and taste great. Their exceptionally bland website boasts “no violence or scary scenes” and promises not to use exclamation marks. Instead, you’ll get some bland ideas for spending your time like watching clothes dry, making lists, staying up late to change the clocks each spring and fall, or watching BBC2 in the morning. The website also includes boring reports such as the analysis of 376 airport baggage carousels which found that 44.8 percent of them rotate counterclockwise. Unfortunately for the ladies, women are not invited to the Dull Men’s Club, because, according to the founder of the society, “women are exciting.”
