Scientists found that people around age 22 may be less likely than those in their late teens to get bored. A possible reason is that the frontal cortex (the part of the brain responsible for self-control) is in the final stages of maturing. However, life sometimes decides that no matter your age it will throw you such spectacular curveballs that it will be physically impossible for you to get bored.
