Not only that, but screen-based entertainment wasn’t available on-demand. Remember having to wait until a certain time to watch a show you wanted to watch and figuring out something else to do while waiting? Or having to wait until someone was off the phone to use the internet? I feel like another big problem related to boredom is the general lack of patience in our society today. If I can’t have it -right now- then it’s not worthwhile. Which is unfortunate, because a lot of things worth doing require both boredom and patience.
