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

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

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.

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.
