There is a simple cure for boredom: realizing what a dangerous place life is and how fragile our hold on whatever situation allows us to be bored is. Much of the world is starving a war torn -- no I am not trying to guilt trip you, I am suggesting you spend some time preparing for the things that can go wrong in your life. Assuming if you are bored you A) have parents or the like supporting you. Try and live in a tent in the back yard for a week and avoid all help from your family. You have to go to a store to take a crap and you eat what you can earn, smelling like you do without a shower. Some will advise trying to be homeless for a day or a week, but I've been there and the street is a very dangerous place. Just try it in the back yard during the warmer months.
Ask yourself ten hard questions like "Why is the sky blue?" or "Why do cars ride on the right (or left) side of the road?" and find the answers WITHOUT USING THE INTERNET OR ASKING ANYONE ELSE WHO IS USING THE INTERNET! Boredom is usually the result of a disease called Affluenza which is when you have too much money, support and household appliances and you forget that life is a struggle between life and death. When you realize what life is about you go home EVERY NIGHT and hug the folks who know your name, and say a heartfelt thank you for simple things like sugar on your Wheaties.
First, boredom is ignorance. Secondly boredom is a defect of character. The problem is not in the world but in you. If you did every little thing you wanted to do every moment of the day your life would go in terrifying directions very quickly. You don't do that because deep down there is an unlabeled fear, a fear that the real you, your unfiltered behavior would make people hate you or stop supporting you and your ideas. A sociopath never feels those fears or is bored because they just do what they want. Because I am in touch with those fears, I never feel bored, rather I go right to terrified and I DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
A person or a hobby losing its appeal is also a function of affluence. If your GF was the last girl on earth she wouldn't start to look plain or become annoying. You would desperately need her. We DO desperately need each other but we cover the fear over -- with boredom.
