As is typical of most TriadCity commands, Bored searches for <thing> in a specific order, starting with the room you're in, then your worn or wielded equipment, then your inventory. So, if there's a box in the room, and a box in your inventory, the command "bored box" will refer to the one in the room, not your inventory. You'd need to use "bored 2.box" for the latter.
Unlike certain other social commands, Bored cannot be parameterized with an intensifying adverb or other modifier.
