Boredom is evil?

Although I reflexively tend to agree with Pearce about the connection
between boredom and evil, the belief in it is not due to hyperactive
dopaminergic pathways. I am a counterexample; I take have to take
dopamine precursors such as tyrosine just to avoid being hypoactive.

I suspect that the agreement is motivated more by aesthetic sensibility
than neurotransmitter functioning.
