There is certainly the "I'm doing something I can't stand and yet have no way to distract myself" form of boredom, which I think is distinct. I’m curious what the other two forms of boredom are.

As far as the other forms of boredom: the text is Heidegger's <i>The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics</i>, remembered from a cursory skimming some time ago, so what you see (above) might be what you get (in that book). On the other hand, I might wind up having them go a little further in the text, which would involve me finding and reading the text (another reason why I stopped there).

Not quite the same enterprise you are engaged in, I suppose, but since you have read some Wittgenstein it might be interesting: http://www.nyu.edu/gsas/dept/philo/faculty/block/miscellaneous/Fodor_Wittgenstein.png I just came across of this bit of writing by Jerry Fodor.
