I Am Bored With Boors

I looked up the word 'boor' in my Funk n' Wagnalls to verify the truth. I found that, "A 'boor' is one who's ill-bred, crude and somewhat uncouth!" I find boors obnoxious and inconsiderate jerks when they flaunt their gall! Their disgusting, rude and churlish behavior nearly drives me up the wall! I detest loud-mouthed youths (and adults) who I suppose vie for attention. Their total lack of respect for anything is beyond my comprehension! Their public display of putrid language is offensive to others' ears. Free speech is fine but public vulgarity could be reined in, it appears! My eyes glaze over when gasbags bore me with trivial conversation, And don't get to the point and babble on and on without cessation! In a fine cafe why don't boors stifle cell phones and let people dine in peace! Their chattering is akin to a pair of magpies or a skein of honking geese! Teenage boors practically make love in malls that is offensive to many others. Aren't kiddies today taught be a bit more discreet by their pops and mothers? They tote their boom boxes with 'music' blaring throughout the 'hood. I'd like to tell them where they can shove those things if I legally could! I loathe smart aleck boors who tailgate and impair my driving vision. Don't they know this lack of common sense is apt to cause a collision? I reckon I'd better wind this down and not bore with further dissertation, But no doubt by now with boorish boors you can sense my frustration! Robert L.
