The Borings are a group of famous RAs at LMU.
Current CTY LMU students and alumni know the three Boring brothers as virtually inseparable from the CTY identity. Chris, Jesse, and Jason Boring are the most respected and legendary RAs to have been employed at the site, and are known for running the best activities, many of which are long-running. Examples include Sparkleball and More Active Than Sleep But You Probably Won't Break a Sweat. Along with their "adopted brothers and sisters," RAs Tom Ryan, Jake Benninger, Jess "Stumpy" Bonnlander, Nate "Hairy" Stern, and Mary Rieg, the Borings have dominated the site since 2001 and remain a student favorite.
Famous Boring moments include Jesse's bedtime song written for his hall in 2003 ("Sleepytime in Jesse's Hall"), the painful waxing of Jason's leg in 2005, and Mary accepting an annual challenge to eat a snail, slug, or worm.
In one year, Jesse Boring and his hall participated in the talent show video, and as part of the act Jesse ripped off his CTY shirt in truly macho style, then one of Jesse's hall poured cereal and milk into the hollow between Jesse's ribs and ate it. As any LMU student knows, most of the female population of CTY LMU is in love with the Boring Brothers. For example, Mary Rieg's hall (the Latin girls) serenaded Jesse's hall with songs like Tearing Up My Heart by NSync in exchange for the shirt Jesse had ripped off as a get well present for Jen, a member of their hall who had been hospitalized. Later Jesse sprayed the shirt with his cologne as a bonus. Strips were torn from the shirt and every girl from Latin Session 2 2004 has a piece of Jesse Boring's shirt with his cologne (Curve for Men, if you want to know) on it.
Jesse was unable to attend CTY 2005, but Tom ran an activity, "Jesse Boring Worshipping", in order to generate interest for Jesse's surprise visit.
In 2006, Sessions 1 & 2, only Jason, Jake, and Mary were RAs (edit by Tom Ryan). Jesse and Chris couldn't do it. Well Chris couldn't do it because he got married. Now he lives on a huge homestead with his wife. Chris has offered to let Tom live on his land (as what, a sharecropper?) but Tom hasn't accepted the offer. Tom also wasn't at LMU, everyone was sad. Especially everyone. By everyone I mean Tom Ryan. He cried. A lot, since he missed everyone (this too was edited by Tom Ryan). Also some members of the instructional staff hung a sign in a window of their apartment that read "KAREN: BRING BACK THE TOOL", which became a source of controversy when members of the LMU administration misinterpreted the sign as more than a shoutout to Baltimore and site coordinator Karen Weeks to rehire Tom.
In 2007, Jesse became the academic counselor at the Lancaster site and Jason became the Dean of Residential Life at LMU. Jake is an SRA (thus Jason's deputy). In 2007 Mary TA'd for Crafting the essay A at LMU. Tom is still back in Odessa but but his Robot Wars creation continues to play out at LMU and at Lancaster. Up in Santa Cruz, two RAs ran "Glue Stuff to Tom and Jason" (except they renamed the activity after themselves) during 2007.1, except there wasn't enough glue, so the RAs got covered primarily in streamers, twigs, plastic bottles, and and expensive low-tac blue masking tape.
