[23:46:07] <exec> 08└─The video looks to me like a misdemeanor trespass. A couple weeks of mowing grass and painting fences and assorted other "restitution" should cover the "offense".

"All play and no work makes Jack a boy" is an intentional reversal of "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." Aristotle's point is that having entertainment as a goal is childish.
