悶到爆
都市人怕什麼呢?除了怕窮怕病怕死之外,應該數到「怕悶」。點解都市人咁怕悶呢?
「悶」沒有市場
市場上的產品服務,千方百計爭取客人注意。如果該產品服務給人有「悶」的感覺,就一定乏人問津無銷量。結果,「悶」變成沒有市場,「悶」是一種壞評價。如果一套戲被評為悶戲,觀眾會鬧爆割櫈。進修讀書,學生彈阿sir教得沉悶。參加旅行團,旅客彈行程好悶。那本書寫得好悶。「悶」是一種罪名,會接到投訴的。
悶是浪費時間
人人每天得24小時,如果花了時間在悶的人和事上,是十分浪費生命和不值的!與其花時間在悶嘢身上,倒不如拿時間做其他更有趣的事情。這是「機會成本」的道理。最普遍的例子:跟朋友吃飯見悶,便垂頭玩電話,電話提供資訊娛樂,更勝面前這個悶局。拒絕沉悶,不想浪費寶貴時間,改去做其他有意義的事情。
悶令人情緒低落
有人說:「悶會悶出個病來」,即是所謂「屈到病」;情緒影響身體狀況。例如:有人認為返工好悶好悶,放工後要心理平衝一吓,開懷大玩大吃一番!人天生本性追求快樂,所以本能地逃避沉悶。悶人沒有話題,不懂交際、欠缺吹水藝術,身邊的人都避之則吉,結果惡性循環,悶人越來越無人理會,變成了個孤僻「悶精」。
習慣被娛樂
在消費主義主導下,顧客養成了的心態是:「我來消費你便要娛樂我」。每一分鐘都習慣被娛樂。如果面前的人或事缺乏娛樂性,就打個呵欠,立即想走人。相反,如果那人充滿娛樂性,則成為聚會中的焦點,大家乖乖做觀眾,等他提供免費娛樂。
悶的工作、悶的電視、悶的節目、悶的菜式、悶的建築、悶的天氣、悶的環境、悶的情人、悶的人生。人人都怕悶,人人都嗌悶,其實人人日日都嗌悶,本身都已經好悶。

Being
Boring - Pet Shop Boys
I came across a cache of old photos
And invitations to teenage parties
"Dress in white" one said, with
quotations
From someone's wife, a famous writer
In the nineteen-twenties
When you're young you find inspiration
In anyone who's ever gone
And opened up a closing door
She said: "We were never feeling bored
'Cause we were never being boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
And we were never being boring
We dressed up and fought, then thought:
"Make amends"
And we were never holding back or worried
that
Time would come to an end
When I went I left from the station
With a haversack and some trepidation
Someone said: "If you're not careful
You'll have nothing left and nothing to
care for
In the nineteen-seventies"
But I sat back and looking forward
My shoes were high and I had spots
I'd bolted through a closing door
I would never find myself feeling bored
'Cause we were never being boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
And we were never being boring
We dressed up and fought, then thought:
"Make amends"
And we were never holding back or worried
that
Time would come to an end
We were always hoping that, looking back
You could always rely on a friend
Now I sit with different faces
In rented rooms and foreign places
All the people I was kissing
Some are here and some are missing
In the nineteen-nineties
I never dreamt that I would get to be
The creature that I always meant to be
But I thought in spite of dreams
You'd be sitting somewhere here with me
'Cause we were never being boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
And we were never being boring
We dressed up and fought, then thought:
"Make amends"
And we were never holding back or worried
that
Time would come to an end
We were always hoping that, looking back
You could always rely on a friend
And we were never being boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
And we were never being boring
We dressed up and fought, then thought:
"Make amends"
And we were never being boring
We were never being bored
'Cause we were never being boring
We were never being
