Boredom does lead to trouble! Unless you are bored and have emotional problems or psychological problems that make you outside the accepted "normal" standards of society! Sometimes trouble attacks innocent bystanders and there is nothing that they can do to avoid the trouble. An example of this would be being mugged on a subway. Or another example would be a bitter ex trying to ruin your life! However only people who have major emotional defects and psychological defects encounter trouble while they are bored! If an individual can't find a healthy outlet or a source of information and new experiences to entertain their mind...then they are socially underdeveloped and have emotional issues and psychological issues. A well adjusted productive member of society is easily entertained.
