No cheating and looking this up first. No looking at other comments before you respond either. What do you think the word droll means?

Something humorous, but in a pretentious sort of way.

That's what I thought! My response to the question was "boring, dull." But apparently it means "amusing in an odd way, whimsically humorous."
I think we should change it to mean boring and dull. It sounds better.

Somewhat amusing, like the French counterpart, drôle, which means the same thing.

Dry, witty, strangely humorous.
