Bored Quotes

When I see a kid in a movie theater texting, I think it’s a failure of the movie. It’s not a triumph of the Apple iPhone.

They’re smart little kids that are bored, and I wanted to challenge them Picture Quote #1

I don’t mind being pale. In high school, it seemed like everybody cared about being tan all year round, but I haven’t really thought about it since then.

I’ve read plenty of amazing science pieces where the writers don’t hang out in labs. I just have fun doing it. And I get rewarded for it; I get gushy, especially when kids tell me they expected to be bored by my books, but weren’t Picture Quote #1

I put in $10 of ‘Jingle Bell Rock,’ and this was back in the 90s, so it played ‘Jingle Bell Rock,’ like, 40 times in a row. It was just really fun to watch because after the fourth time, people were just losing-their-minds angry Picture Quote #1
