Julian Assange is a hero of our times. Let us hope the Ecuadorians protect him from the grubby hands of the heartless Americans.

Not gonna lie, I've always had a soft spot for Julian Assange. I love that whole whistleblower bad boy deal.

@wikileaks love Assange.

@bodhibrian A liar who claims to be a champion of truth. He fools many vulnerable people. #Assange

I have better things to do with my time, but by all accounts Mr Assange as popular as a bucket of (boring) cold porridge. Oh dear.

This week's officially boring chart:

Julian Assange;

Scottish Independence (up 2 places);

Ebola (baring a serious death toll).

Cycling.

Julian Assange - almost as boring as Adel Taarabt.

— Paul Thompson (@staineshoops) August 18, 2014

I've always admired the goal, but not necessarily the methods, of wikileaks. But the Assange saga is just getting boring now, to be honest.

Julian Assange breakingly boring.

#Assange should be thrown in jail for the most boring news conference i have ever seen #tosser

Genius move by assange's people starting a rumour he might be leaving today, to get us watching THE MOST BORING PRESS CONFERENCE IN EVER

— Dave (@isntdave) August 18, 2014

@JuliaHB1 julian Assange is the most boring man on earth #wikisnore

— Paul Cleary (@clears45) August 18, 2014

For a very boring word, it's good to see "soon" suddenly parading around with quote marks and an air of mystery. #assange

Most boring press conference in the world with Julian #Assange has driven me back to work. Wonder if Met can recoup £7M cost from him?

— David Gurtler (@GurtlerDavid) August 18, 2014

There is probably a strong argument that right now Julian #Assange is the world's most boring man

If the Assange press conference gets any more boring and uninformative, I fear for property prices in Knightsbridge.

Chuckled. Needed it. RT @fieldproducer: There is probably a strong argument that right now Julian Assange is the world's most boring man.

Bloody hell Assange just announce whether you're releasing a new album or not. This is just boring.

— Ben May (@B3nMay) August 18, 2014

Hmmm! The majority of 'journo' tweets re. Assange appear to be of the 'boring us into a coma' variety. :-D

— Carole (Ducky) (@IrPsych) August 18, 2014

Batshit boring TV

Thanks for the life story Julian. Just walk out the door #DraggingItOut#Assange#Boring

— Rob Edmond (@RobEd88) August 18, 2014

Is it just me or is Julian Assange really boring

— MursMums (@mursmums) August 18, 2014

Ugggggh, I forgot how boring Julian Assange is. Maybe I should put this on to put me to sleep.

— Robert DeFino (@RobDeFino) August 18, 2014

If being boring was a crime, then #Assange should be sent to jail without passing Go.

— Krister Renaud (@krenaud) August 18, 2014

Boring as hell. I'll wait for the summary. #Assange

— Matt (@Vanalli) August 18, 2014

Funny how Julian #Assange said he would be brief then goes into a long, rambling, tedious rehash of all the old nonsense, boring everyone.

— Sandra K Eckersley (@SandraEckersley) August 18, 2014

Julian Assange fronts the media to reinforce just how boring he, and everything about him, truly is...

— Mathew Thompson (@MathewJThompson) August 18, 2014

Most boring 'you caught me gov' speech in the world goes to #Assange, now off you pop and face the charges levied against you...

— Siobhan McFadyen (@siobhanyc) August 18, 2014

Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian embassy is the most boring story about being stuck behind walls since Daenarys Targaryen went to Meereen.
