I brought some chili from home for lunch. I just went downstairs to the little bistro in the building and got some apple juice. I also picked up a few napkins and a spoon. The napkins were justified. Who doesn’t spill a little apple juice every now and then? But the spoon. I don’t plan to drink the apple juice with it. Was this unethical? Did I just commit petty theft? But more important, am I really this fucking bored??? 🙂

[In Florida, stealing a spoon is a felony.](http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/florida/walmart-spoon-theft-908346)

Even if you do need it to eat your Cap’n Crunch.

You should listen to the [Bonzos](https://genius.com/The-bonzo-dog-doo-dah-band-im-bored-lyrics)

I’m tired of art - drawing bored.  
I’m border to death - mortar bored.

And be careful, op. next thing you know you’ll be stealing paper clips. :eek:
