  1. He wore a jacket, it was brown swede. A sad look glazed over sunshine has not hit his eyes in weeks. The sound of 60hz hum, the florescent tubing clicking as it comes to life. This was his life, all of it and nothing.

  7. I used to wish that my life wasn’t so dull. Now, I’ve come to realize the difference between dull and lonely and how the latter is far more pitiful. Cheers? Well, if I had someone to clink glasses with, I would. Now I’ll just curl up and swirl my glass alone.

  8. In this very dull life of mine, everything manages to revolve around school. I wake up and study for school. Go to school and “learn”. Go home, do work sent from school. Then I do it again. They are a hardship, they are chains, and they are an unnecessary punishment.

  10. Doing the same thing, day after day. A life where you give most of your time to chasing money, just to support yourself, and so you lose what wonder and enthusiasm you might have had growing up. Dull is death in living.

  11. Sometimes I feel like a dull person. I don’t drink. I don’t do drugs. I don’t “party.” My idea of fun consists of talking, playing board games, and just sitting around listening to music. Sometimes I feel dull.

  13. there is a dull ache inside my skin. just underneath the translucent white layer I can see my heart beating through my veins. everything is darker now than it was before and to control this darkness, to make it brighter would mean to sacrifice myself. I am unable to breathe. My soul is aching and I’m not quite sure why. I can’t go back there. I wont go back there. but my skin is crying with such a dull ache…

  16. It was a dull grey morning in a dull grey town in a dull grey country, where a dull grey ordinary boy lived. Oh, if only they knew, of if only you knew what was about to hit that dull grey country and just how ironic the hit would be. For there was also a dull greying man standing, watching over the small dull, grey town below.

  18. I never would have thought of a thunder storm anything short of eventful, but ever since my last hopes in this now bland and dry room, I am left here to think of how dull everything really is with no one to share it, with no one to know the wonders that i used to share with this world, for no one to know of the wonders i saw in you. Now that you are gone, so is

  19. It’s a damp feeling that makes everything around me gloomy. It just sucks the energy out of me and enthusiasm and changes my face into a grouchy one. Also when I feel dull, I make everyone around me feel dull too! I hate dullness. It’s an ugly feeling.

  20. She was dull, her tedious conversation made me so bored I almost wished to stab myself with my fork for a moment of entertainment.

  21. Day after day, it’s the same thing. That’s the definition of ‘dull’ isn’t it? Nothing changes. It stays the same. One day, something will change, but it won’t be what I wanted or what you wanted, will it?

  23. To night I don’t want to say anything about my dream. Dull is not what I want to describe my feeling. I just try to achieve something that I should make it done very quickly but as my routine task. It is so dull.

  24. I glanced around the dull,dull room. There were pictures of grim-looking people on the walls, and mustard-colored blankets on the bed.

  25. I’m dull, and I don’t like being dull, but it’s the way it is. And what’s worse is this image that people have of me for being so ‘interesting,’ and I’m just not, and I constantly feel the pressure to live up to their expectations that I’ve forgotten my very own expectations. I’m dull, and I hate it, but I hate not knowing how to hide it even more.

  26. the knife was meant for cooking. Not actually cooking, but cutting, however it couldn’t perform it’s duty. Years of neglect prevented it from fulfilling its purpose. Like me. Time to sharpen up. Time to be who I am intended to be.

  27. Sitting in my room, reading. Thinking. Studying. Sleeping. This is what you think I do all day.

    My friends have called me dull and you have called me boring. But what you all don’t realize is, I have a world going on inside my head. One where I am everything you think I’m not. I have my adventures, I have my prince, I take risks and leave my mark. Ideas grow and develop and entertain me. My dreams may seem just dreams, but they are better than this reality.

    It is going on right now, as I type this word. I must get back now, I’m not sure what I’m missing. I’ll see you when I see you.

  28. Dull means something that is very boring, or it can also mean that something shiny is very not shiny.

  29. Her back is to him as she works at the counter, slicing tomatoes for sandwiches. He rambles about something she can’t quite follow; engines or something, and she struggles with the dull blade. The tomato slices are jagged and uneven and she feels a tear starting to escape from her eye as she realizes their glaring imperfection.

  30. not sharpened uuuuuuuhuuuuuuuuuhhhhh

  31. Saddening and brown. No tip, not sharp. No point, no meaning. Diminished thought, over. The end.

  32. the pencil was just about as dull as his personality. i was tired of waiting for someone to ask me if i needed a new one, i believe in this color so much, i had so much faith that something good could come, something inspiring would spring up and out of nowhere, but i’m sorry to say you have only disappointed me.

  33. when you wake up and aren’t excited about your day. and when you look in the mirror and you see that your eyes and your hair and your general mood reflects that feeling. how do you break away from the dullness. what created this deadening feeling inside of you that even the hope of a new day can’t cure.

  34. What monotony…
    Black is black and silver is compounded upon silver.
    What a way to live.
    In utter hated of the boredom that fills this place.

  35. Apathy.
    To little, to often, to much.
    An illness of the bored and tired.
    Our youth’s greatest downfall.
    To bored to even care.

  36. Dull is too bleak a word to describe this cold. The wind blows from the north and chills my eyes. My love is far warmer than this dull, bleak, shiver.

  37. This life is dull.

    I feel like – and have always felt – I have so much potential, but I am simply in the wrong place and the wrong time. I have accidentally been put in the wrong body and the wrong circumstances. I could be great in another world; I could be substantial in another universe.

    Who I am is not all I can be – but what can be done?

  38. Life was dull and endless.
    I’d reached a point in my life where not a damn thing made sense.

    No one else could relate to the unfathomable monotony that had grown upon me.

  40. Again? Dull? Really? I am getting tired of this word. It comes out everyday!!! Jeez!!! Well, I’m still working, same thing different day. My boss is not around. Sounds good! He will not come in today, it is raining so i guess he is scared of getting wet.
