Update on 9/4/08 @ 4PM: Comments are borked. They're going through, so please don't comment twice, but they're just spitting out ugly errors and not rebuilding the pages to show your comment. I'll look into it after I get some sleep. I think I got this fixed. Let me know using the contact form on the right column if things are still wonky.

How Do People Find UtterlyBoring.com?
Apparently some folks at a radio station in Portland (who will remain nameless, as I didn't ask for permission) were bored (which seems to bring a bunch of traffic here) and searched for "bastard gas prices suck", which has an old post on my site listed as the third result.
It was from 2003 and I was complaining about our $1.94 prices. My have times changed.

Dane said on 04/26/06 @ 05:14 PM: Oh man, $3.02? We're still at the bargain price of $2.85 here in Minnesota. Guess I should stock up before my grand exodus back to the Northwest.
Jo-Anne said on 04/27/06 @ 01:18 AM: As of right now,the lowest is $111.6 per litre....doing the math per gallon
ughhhhh! May the nice weather and cheap walking shoes be in our days ahead of us!
Oh yeah I found Utterlyboring the geekette way..I opened Google and typed in a search using the word "boring" ..been coming back ever since.

Dan said on 04/27/06 @ 06:31 AM: When I started my current job (outside of Boston) 6 years ago, the local cheapie gas station was $0.79 a gallon. It is now $3.10.
I can't quite remember how I came to this site; been reading for about 2 years.

who gives a rip said on 04/29/06 @ 01:03 PM: very boring likes to talk about himself
A student from San Antonio, Texas who should REALLY get back to work. said on 05/02/06 @ 01:10 PM: Yeah, so like the Jo-ann person, I gogled boring, looking for amusing sites to while away my time, and avoid doing my class work. Lo and behold, I came upon this site, and now it is one of my favorite distractions.
