Boring the **** outta me was an exaggeration, I admit that.
I enjoyed 1984 like I enjoyed LOTR, both well thought out but unfortunately flat when it came to the human aspect of their characters.

Yes more original thought, Orwell's concept was probably one the conservatives have been hyperventilating over for a while.
