The last time I was bored at the DMV, I played with some plastic explosives.
Is this a joke? Why would you play with explosives?
The key was there in my hand and I just started to fiddle around with it is all. I never exploded anything.
You were bored and tried to play with something dangerous, but something could have malfunctioned and gone off. Then you would have been responsible for many deaths and injuries. Your face and name would be on the TV for days on end, plus everyone would shun you.
What?! I wouldn't hurt anyone. I was just having fun.
While it was fun, what happened if they accidentally were set off? You could have hurt a lot of people. It is better to leave explosives to the professionals and never play with them in public.
