It also depends on the people a lot. There are at least two types of people who are tiring to be around:
1. The one who is very slow to get to the point. At around 10 second mark you can see where the story is going, but still you have to sit there for several minutes listening the person get there.
2. The one who has endless amount of stories about themselves. Initially you think it's interesting and entertaining, but soon it dawns on you that the stories are actually boring and waste your time. Typically people like this have developed a sense that people don't like to listen to them, and have excellent defenses against all attempts to shut them down politely.
