A word that means that you have gone left to right and top to bottom on your keyboard in a desperate cry for help, yet boredom will not let go of you, so you resort to going right to left in a top to bottom motion. If you have found this definition for the word, that means you are suffering just as I am as I type in this definition. So how about you take a different approach by finding something productive that will certainly free you from boredom, such as reading, YouTube, BuzzFeed quizzes, Quotev quizzes, listening to music, anything that might release you from boredom's grasp.
