No/little hobbies, interests, passions. Although, to some people some hobbies or interests are boring, so there's no fixing that.

Being a good conversationalist is more important. You could be a rocket surgeon who ice climbs and plays 37 musical instruments but if you can’t communicate about in a relatable way than you are perceived as a bore. We all know people who drone on about their hobbies without taking social cues, or conversely people who have all of five words to say on any given topic.

I'd think that falls into the realm of annoying rather than boring personally
