I'm looking around the room, avoiding eye contact with him, and sighing loudly: he doesn't need an advanced degree in body language to see that I've checked out of this conversation about three seconds into it when he started talking about how the bass player in his side-project jazz band got him a bong for his birthday last month. Who cares? That's the dumbest story I've ever heard!
Dude, I'm wearing a nice dress: I don't want to talk about either bass players, jazz side-project bands, or bongs right now. What the hell? His stories make no sense and they drag on longer than a Spiderman trilogy marathon. UGH! I have no patience for this sort of thing. Make it stop.

Story of my life. In fact, this happens to me so often that I'm pretty much determined to marry the next guy who doesn't tell me stupid, pointless stories.
aw come on.. wouldn't you want him to listen to YOUR stories, no matter how stupid or pointless?? you can at least pretend to be interested! (unless he is clearly a douchebag and deserves to be ignored)
no! his stories were FUCKING BORING! At a loud bar on a Friday night, I don't want to dedicate brain cells to listening to him ramble on about any sort of nonsense. We weren't on a date, I was chatting with him while my friend hit on his friend so it was more of a wingman scenario. And, it sucked.
Not saying this was the case, but I've told intentionally boring stories to girls that I didn't really want to talk to
Well, he added me on Facebook two hours later so o guess he liked boring me?
There's always the option of outright honesty that the story is dreadful. To be honest, with the number of times I've had to hear about how a woman's cat has been acting strangely, the bank line was too long, or how she dislikes her most recent best friend for some never divulged reason; my sympathy wears thin.
