What is better at shattering boredom than a great game?!? Break out Settlers of Cataan, Brain Chain or Ticket to Ride (depending on the kind of game you like) and your boredom will magically end! Unfortunately, you will have to scour up someone to play with you . . .

Entertaining but there's usually no one around to play games with me.

The only problem I forsee with this: My brother might not be bored enough to play the game with me. There's no point if someone isn't around to play it with you. And since numbah thinks that being naked should be involved: remind me not to try to play a board game with HIM :) *sorry, couldn't help myself*

My secretary won't play Monopoly with me anymore because she figured out that I was cheating.

This only works if there is more than one player. If its just you, you might as well just go turn on a video game.
