- Eddie: Bored. Bored out of my tiny mind. This is how they get ya. Slowly chip away. Compromise after compromise. Until you're finally trapped. Slowly dying of boredom. Boredom is a dangerous thing. Many perfectly sane people have been driven mad by boredom. That's why leaders go mad with power. They start looking for problems. The maddest, cruelest, most batshit ideas are caused by boredom. How many people have accidentally killed themselves while bored? Making bathtub meth, or looking down the wrong end of a nailgun. They call it invention. Curiosity. Science. Endeavour. It never leads to anything good. Wars are waged. Ethnicities cleansed. Plagues invented all to alleviate boredom.
