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.

And if you're not…well….
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.

That's where you play cards and board games;
How far back into your childhood can your remember and what is your favorite memory of that time?
They lash out under circumstances where they would normally just let things slide.
That's where you eat your meals;
