Boring?

my mother told me as a boy
(repeatedly) ‘Ever to confess you’re bored
means you have no

Inner Resources.’ I conclude now I have no
inner resources, because I am heavy bored.
-- Huffy Henry

That’s what comes to mind when I read the outrage which is this essay.

If you're an baseball analyst, and a team bores you, shouldn't you be looking for another job? Is that not an admission of failure? Or slackery? Or a lack of Inner Resources?

More on this later, maybe.
