“Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time.”
- Obi-Wan Kenobi
I’d completely forgotten that word existed, and now that I’ve read it I’m shocked that it hasn’t been used far more often over recent years. Perfect! Thank you.
Inside Out 2 had Ennui as a character, very enjoyable.
So did Zoolander. The name didn’t make much sense there though.
ADHD.
A Diet of Hors D’oeuvres?
All Day Had Dinner
Arbitrarily Doing Humorous Deeds
Always Doing, Hardly Done.

Alienation

Life.
Welcome to Life, the new interactive experience that will grind you down and kill your dream. Now a Microsoft copilot company!
Probably depression.
100% me.
Is it ok if I want to do all of those things EXCEPT the “profession” thing? And if so, what’s the word for THAT?
Yes. It’s called Hunkering Down and Eating Pizza and Watching Movies and Daydreaming About the Rest.
And rest api’s
