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

Take a bunch of prisoners, lock them in a pen, make them as uncomfortable as possible and feed them shitty food, and if you're VERY VERY lucky, they'll only manage to take it out on each other.

And if you're not…well….

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

Family scapegoats with years of healing: what events or thoughts precipitated your full acceptance of your family's narcissistic dynamic? Can you share your inner thoughts as you reached it? How do we know when we have reached full acceptance?

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.

That's where you eat your meals;

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

What is your interpretation of the movie Rocky? What makes it a good film in your opinion?

Because it's hard enough to pass the nighttime lockdown in jail without having to deal with sleeplessness, what with the dusk-til-dawn florescent bulb over your burnished chrome shaving mirror shining in your eyes, and the CO’s slamming armored doors throughout the graveyard shift.

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.

The perpetually tired don't think straight.

Time to break out the CS canisters.

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

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.

See those stainless steel stools?

That's where you watch The Price is Right;

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.

What qualities do single women typically look for in a man? Is it a common preference for women to want a man who earns more than they do?

They lash out under circumstances where they would normally just let things slide.

That's where you play cards and board games;
