You're boring to everyone else? Fine. Don't be boring to your kids. Be there for them. "Dad spent time with me" will matter to your kids far more than being able to tell some rando about your hobby will matter to said rando.

(Don't be boring to your wife, either.)

In fact, don't be boring to the neighbor kids. You want your house to be the place they hang out, rather than your kids hanging out at the neighbor's house. That way you find out what's going on in your kids' lives sooner, when you can do something about it, rather than later when you maybe can't.
