Do inmates experience boredom in jail? Can you provide an example of something an inmate might do for fun if they were bored?

And a lot of this has to do with common comfort.

Some eventually relent and escape to their cells and those welded sheet metal bunks…really no more comfortable than the day room furnishings, but at least you can get horizonal.

That's where you typically shoot the shit with your fellow inmates.

How do you relax?

You can only watch so many hours of basic cable on the shitty day room TV…play so many tricks of Spades…read so many chapters of Michael Crichton…listen to so much Top 40 radio over your earbuds, before it all just becomes too fucking much.

And as the seconds, minutes, and hours tick by, your ass starts to ache, your eyes cloud over, and your brain begins firing on one single cylinder.

And that's where you've fucked right on up, since now you're inevitably going to nap, and nothing's more dangerous in jail than an intermittent sleep cycle.

The perpetually tired don't think straight.

Spartan circumstances only build character when you're allowed to maintain a certain level of self respect and esprit de corps.
