Reader's question: If you wish, when you do the cloning, you can watch the transfer process as it happens. Or you can watch paint dry. We elected to come back after it finished. Could you explain “to watch paint dry”?

My comment:

If you say that watching an activity is like watching paint dry, you mean that it is very boring. To me, watching golf on television is about as interesting as watching paint dry.

You can use this expression to say no. Example: Do you want to go see the movie ‘Confucius’? I’d rather watch paint dry.

That means you find the idea of watching that movie so boring that you would prefer to watch paint dry.
