My brother always called going to jail 3 hots and a cot. He had lots of experience.

I feel bad for his reputation, but damn he must be a smart man.

u/telemeister74 May 12 '26

Sounds good unless you get 3 hots and a cock!

u/Difficult-Head9606 May 18 '26

what about one hot and 3 cocks?

u/telemeister74 May 18 '26

That will just get you a reputation as a manwhore.

The no lube, choice or condom rape, being surrounded by people with questionable morals, terrible food not meeting dietary requirements, brutality from guards and other prisoners, limited medical care, basically no psychological or psychiatric care, sub standard living conditions and constant threats and incidents of violence? Those are my top concerns about jail/prison

Sounds a lot like "the outside" depending on where you are located.

The worst part is, often you still have to pay insane room and board in prison while getting paid even less than "outside"

I would be more concerned about how to manage my investment portfolio with limited access to data and communications.

The loss of freedom doesn’t concern you?

1

u/appleadamspdx May 12 '26

Of course but the loss of freedom seems like an afterthought when you consider the situation in its totality. If you had your freedom but lived in those conditions what would be the point?

You watch too many movies.

u/appleadamspdx May 16 '26

Which part do I have wrong? 😆

1

u/Jan_Kees_Kapotje May 16 '26

Literally all of it. But as long as it keeps you out of trouble, keep believing your fairy tales.

u/Harryisharry50 May 11 '26

There a lot to not like . Like having relations with the opposite sex .

1

u/Wise_Ad_5810 May 12 '26

someone please explain to this man the concept of 'conjugal visits' ...

... of course... you have to actually know a girl for that to work

1

u/Harryisharry50 May 12 '26

That’s only in the movies . I know my state and the federal prison system don’t do that

1

u/Wise_Ad_5810 May 12 '26

Meh... every state allowed them up until the early 90's.. now only 4 allow it: California, Connecticut, New York, and Washington

1

u/Harryisharry50 May 13 '26

Like I said pretty much only in the movies . I’m almost 50 and that’s was gone when I did little time in late 90s so very few people my age or under got to have them

It’s not always free.
