no it won't, however people will be able to say they're bored 'of' something (which most naturally do) rather than bored 'with', which is formally correct but jars a little more than 'of' in this example to my ear at any rate That's completely different and more superficial; it's just replacing one preposition with another, it's not using a preposition where a verb belongs.

What's happening there isn't in itself different from what happened when people wrote in Morse code, sent telegrams or composed newspaper headlines (a manager doesn't "consider" or even "look at" a prospective player; he "eyes" him). The difference is of course that in this instnce there is a sociolinguistic caste in which such language use is assigned prestige.
