word interminable
definition Having or seeming to have no end; tiresomely drawn out.
eg_sentence The preacher was making another of his interminable pleas for money, so she snapped off the TV.
explanation Nothing is literally endless, except maybe the universe and time itself, so interminable as we use it is always an exaggeration. On an unlucky day you might sit through an interminable meeting, have an interminable drive home in heavy traffic, and watch an interminable film—all in less than 24 hours
