Somehow, this doesn't surprise me <VVVBG>.
Serious question...since you refer to never in your life,
is it possible that this could be a physical thing?  I mean
a bio-chemical brain function thing?

If some people are never bored and some people are always bored
could there not be some bio medical, brain chemical observable
quantifiable difference?  There are receptors in the brain just
awaiting to be stimulated.  Maybe some people's receptors are
more easily tickled?
