Dull Men's Slogans
It's OK to be dull
We're giving a good name to a four-letter word
We don't get out much
No matter where you go, there you are
We don't try to keep up with the Joneses (who are the Joneses, anyway?)
Seeking glitz and glam? Why bother?
Born to be mild
Think inside the box — it's safer there

Dull Men's Club

Welcome to our website

About Our Website

This is a place in cyberspace where dull men — and women who appreciate dull men — share experiences, interests, and ways of coping – coping in a world that presents ever increasing number of exciting things to do.

A new way of enjoying the ordinary has come about — www and email. We now share with fellow dull men around the world without leaving home. And, when we do leave home, we consult this website to find ways to avoid excitement wherever we go.

This is not an aspirational website — not a website promising men flatter stomachs, whiter teeth, more money in the bank, and (air-brushed) girlfriends. Instead, we enjoy ordinary things.

We hope you have as much fun viewing our site as we have maintaining it. You too can have a hand in maintaining it. Email your suggestions for content using our Contact Us Form [click here] or Email [click This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ].Your contributions will be posted to the website and to our daily blog — Dullog.

Calendar of Events

February is not only Watching Maple Trees Drip Month. February is also [in development]. Click here to get to our March Calendar of Events.

Airport Luggage Carousels

Our website has what we think is the world's largest report on airport luggage carousels — clockwise or counterclociwise. We cover over 400 airports, and the list is growing.

Collections & Museums

We like museums of everyday, ordinary things like coat hangers, combs, lawnmowers, dog collars. We avoid glizty exhibits of famous museums, their wine-and-cheese parties, racing to get headlines, constantly raising funds. We report on over 100 collections and museums, and the list is growing.

Appreciation Societies

We don't need to appreciate things all by ourselves. There are appreciation societies we join to be with others who also appreciate things like clouds, biscuits, traffic cones. Twenty-one Appreciation Societies are reported on so far on our website.

Races.

Formula 1, Ascot, NASCAR — too exciting for us. We like races of slower, more ordinary things. So far, our website reports on racing snails, turtles, gold fish, rubber ducks, ferrets, pigeons, shopping trolleys, lawnmowers, milk floats, donkey carts, Trabants.

Roundabouting

Here we reflect on our favorite roundabouts around the world.

Parking Lots
