To echo others’ sentiment, your experience and comments have been really interesting and well-received here imo, welcome to the OG weirdo internet asylum.

There is a subforum called Ask/Tell (A/T) that had an old but good thread from others regarding their prison experience. Wonder how that would compare and contrast to yours.

What up former prison goon. Glad to have you here and hope that you stay clean etc..

As you've seen, most goons are pretty decent folk and don't mind helping someone out, others are well.......

Anyway, I have some questions for you:

Whats some prison lingo that you learned in there?
Like there must have been names for various contraband etc....
Were there special names for porn mags, weed, bootleg liquor etc?

What about various uhhhh "acts"? If one guy was planning on beating up another guy, or like non-consensually sodomizing another dude was there a code word for that poo poo?

How many attempts at escapes were there? Any really creative ones? Any really dumb ones? Like did any prisoners try to hide out in the laundry baskets or garbage cans?

If you want to talk about it, whats the most hosed up thing you saw in there? The funniest?

How many people did you see get released and then come back later on another rap?

I think you mentioned something about movie nights, was there one particular movie that was super popular? Like when whoever asked what movie you guys wanted to watch, did everyone always scream out SCARFACE!!! Or GOODFELLAS!! or something like that?

Also, have you ever heard of this guy named Kirk Johnson?

Don't look at this if you're at work.


i'll answer the other stuff later but here's some slang

suitcase - your rear end in a top hat
pack the rabbit - hide something in your rear end
got a spill, or 'groundhog's up' - guard coming to the floor
hot in here - shakedown coming
foo foo - a homemade dildo
curtain up - hang a towel over the cell door for privacy
dance the blacktop - to fight on the yard
pruno - hooch or alcohol
walk -blank's- pup - like 'he about to walk mike's pup' was a warning that mike was bout to get got in some way

as for movies, scarface for sure. the original terminator was a huge hit. also tombstone.

All right I'd like to apologize harvey, I might have come off the wrong way. As it's something awful I've learned to doubt everything until I have verifiable proof.

I'm glad you found something awful and are able to relay your story to us, I really hope things go well for you. Now that you're free I know it's not an easy transition especially after that long of institutionalization.

I'm not sure what state you are in but hopefully you can find some kind of work that isnt extremely taxing on your body.

SUCK A MALE CAMEL'S DICK WITH MIRACLE WHIP!!
Hey OP, thanks for talking about the prison lingo, especially the one about the "suitcase".

It worked really good with the goatman above in my quoted post. I'll bet he could mule a Buick in his "suitcase".

Anywho, I don't know how extensively you've explored the forums, but you have to keep in mind that goons can be very snobby about poo poo.

For example, I am currently enjoying a milkshake from Dairy Queen. DAIRY QUEEN! And I'm ENJOYING THIS THING!

Now I haven't even posted this post yet, but already there is some goon who is getting themselves in to a rage about someone enjoying some mass produced nationally available product like a milkshake from a large chain.

To many goons, such a thing is blasphemous. Any time now there will be some smug rear end goon showing up to tell me how, by drinking a Dairy Queen milkshake, I am literally drinking liquid poo poo mixed with PISS and GARBAGE. Because that is what Dairy Queen is and you can't even think about enjoying a milkshake from anywhere but the most boutique of ice cream places thats only open for like 3 weeks every two months and gets their ice cream and other ingredients from a Swiss ice cream place in the alps located in some town that English speakers aren't physically able to pronounce properly.
Anything less than that and you are ingesting GARBAGE.

Same thing with just about any other product you can imagine. Like a particular type of mass market beer? Any cheap domestic piss will do the trick, but some goon will tell you that you are LITERALLY DRINKING PISS if you drink any kind of beer but (obscure brand from some unknown microbrewery somewhere that doesn't even sell said beer outside of a 50 25 mile radius of brewery).

Same thing with Swords, goons love studying the art of the blade, but if you don't have Hanzo steel, or take your lessons from (whoever the gently caress) then obviously you like wasting time as you can truly never know the blade?

Hey Harvey! Congrats on finding what I think and hope is the best possible online home for yourself (one of us!) I wanna know more from your perspective what the future shock feels like with respect to like, infrastructure and stuff. I feel like America was much more optimistic when you went in, and now it's all balls-to-the-wall chaos and bridges falling on people.

i haven't been able to find the type of honey buns i loved as a kid and that makes me sad. same thing with hostess fruit pies.

i don't know what's out there today. you folks seem like you might know a thing or two about junk food, so tell harvey what your favorite zoo zoos are.
My favorite zoo zoos are gone. I really loved the waxy, winelike, firm type of fruit snack from the early 90s, but by the 2000s they were all discontinued. Fruit snacks now have a very gummy/mallowy texture and taste way too sweet with very little fruit flavor. Just like how you’ve noticed everything being way too salty, many things nowadays are way too sweet with no flavor.

If you like Reese’s they’ve made a ton of varieties of that. Also a bunch of new flavors of Twix. Kinder Happy Hippos, Tropical Dots, Wiley Wallaby licorice, and grape Red Vines are some of my favorites right now. If you have a candy store nearby with an international section or Japanese supermarket there’s a Japanese jellybean brand called Poifull that’s excellent. A lot of Japanese peach candy and drinks are great too.

We still have a lot of junky cereal and they keep coming out with new kinds too. Check your local Walmart, they usually get them first and/or exclusively. Fruity Pebbles with Marshmallows, Kellogg’s Krave, Fruit Loops with Marshmallows, Wendy’s Frosty Cereal, and Post S’Mores are some of my favorites.

There’s a lot of new flavors of Mountain Dew. My favorite is Baja Blast. It’s got a lime/fruity citric acid taste. I also like Earp’s Sarsaparilla, and Brownie Caramel Root Beer, but I only find those at specialty shops. Some fast food places have machines called Coca Cola Freestyle where you can make custom soda flavors. I like Lime Coke and Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper.

What are your favorite flavors?

How did dude manage to cut off his own testicles if knives aren’t allowed?

What did it feel like the day you were released?

Crazy you read the tao te ching and have that ursula connection! I am super jealous you got a letter from her. Sci-fi dude Philip K Dick had a resurgence and a lot of his works are similar to Lathe of Heaven. They tried to make an anime out of Wizard of Earthsea but it was no good.

Tons of pop culture adaptation of sci-fi and fantasy has happened. They made really good movies out of Lord of the Rings. New Star Wars and Star Trek stuff is all poo poo. Special effects have become almost completely lifelike with the most high tech special effects films probably being Avatar 1 and 2 and they are a real experience to see in the theatre with 3D, you should try to check it out.

Oh yeah actually, that's a really good suggestion.

Watch Avatar if you haven't seen it, and then go to a 3D theatre and watch Avatar 2.

Avatar 2 is causing a slight resurgence, but it will probably die down once people realize that James Cameron is the only director who can make a 3D movie that doesn't look like rear end.

Pretty sure Harvey's legit, guys.

And welcome back to society, man. As others have said, it sounds like your actions were justified and it was only you who faced "justice" in the end. But that doesn't negate how hosed up it must feel to know that you took someone's (admittedly awful) life. Sorry you went through that and are still dealing with it, but I think your cousin led you to a place where you're going to fit in just great.
