Tedious sort (4)

I believe the answer is:

bore

(Other definitions for bore that I've seen before include "Drill - pest" , "giving big wave" , "Tiresome person - tidal flood" , "Carried - drill" , "A tedious talkative person" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate and The Wall Street Journal.
