There are always those who are bored no matter what and then a couple who show a spark of interest.

and remember, no candies or chocolate

It’s like they’re actually small humans.

Hm. But your readers think you’re quite interesting. A genuine conundrum, a rare thing, I find. Oh! I know! Let’s find out what your child readers think!

Don’t worry – you’re still younger and hipper than their parents.

When you’re a boffin, it seems quite ironic that you’d think other people are boring.

You seem to be contented and peaceful people. That beats exciting any day of the week.

Boring Nerds, of the universe, Unite!

WHAT? You two not exciting? I say NO WAY! A cartoonist and a Judge? What kid wouldn’t find that fascinating? You got a whole gambit of careers covered. I’m sure many of them will dream about being a cartoonist/judge some day….or put before one.

Never heard the word “boffins” before. :-O

Just tell them that you come from the first line of defense for the Bill of Rights. Imagine life if you could be arrested and held without even being told why you were arrested.

I admit it…I had to look up boffins. Now to work it into a conversation some time!
