Paid Members nfc90210 Posted February 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) I would imagine that it's pretty much impossible to stop prisoners exercising. Sure you can take away the gym but if some fucker wants to spend his days doing a 1000 press ups and other improvised exercises then there is very little you can do to stop him. Â Going slightly off topic, if the internet is to be believe Mike Tyson never did weighs seriously until after he went to prison for rape. So, if you have lots of time (which prisoners do) and the right genetics you can turn yourself into a physical specimen with a very small amount of equipment.

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted February 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 Was spot checking that HMP Aylesbury show for captioning last week, first bit I really listen to was the "Get the Governor or I'll rape him!" bit. Messed up. E-mail the subtitler, "these seem like nice chaps." She replies, "nothing compared to some US prisons." Cool, that makes it OK then.

Chop their fucking hands and feet off too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Dead Mike Posted February 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 My mate was in Fazakerly prison in Liverpool for a bit of his stretch. Visiting him there was thoroughly depressing (unsurprisingly). The visiting room was full of teenage inmates, apparently mostly doing stretches for stabbing some fucker over a fiver, a postcode or something equally as trivial. Seeing their teenage girlfriends there with their pushchairs drains the soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted February 19, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 19, 2013 The whole thing is utterly miserable and depressing. That's probably why it doesn't get discussed frankly and openly very much, unfortuantely. Â But fuck knows I wouldn't want to sit about talking about it all day.

King Pitcos Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) My nephew got hench as fuck in prison, and frequently threatens my sister and her fella if they don't bring him phones/takeaways/whatever. They're shit scared of him too, so they do it. After a few years inside, he was allowed out on Saturdays for a few hours but did an armed robbery on about the third time. He's not allowed out anymore. He was pure scum anyway so prison isn't to blame, but it's made him worse rather than better. Does it really turn more bad eggs good than rotten? According to this Guardian propaganda piece from two years or so back, no. Edited February 19, 2013 by King Pitcos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professor Paul's Bin Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Gonna be recording that Fried Chicken Documentary on Channel 4 tonight. Anyone else watching it? I think it looks alright. I can't give an explanation why because I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members John Matrix Posted February 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 I saw the advert for that last night and was equally intrigued. Should be worth a giggle. Â If it's anything like when i used to work the graveyard shift at KFC, i hope they have someone come in 5 minutes before closing when nothings ready, order a megabucket, and fuck off 30 seconds after it's loaded into the fryer.

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted February 19, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 19, 2013 Is it an actual documentary? Or is it like a "scripted reality" show? Â Although, the advert was good enough that I'd quite like to check it out either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Paul's Bin Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I'm pretty sure its a documentary. I've always felt sorry for these foreign blokes working in these fast food places with drunks. I'm sure its the same everywhere but Rhyl (where I'm from) the people are absolutely awful to them and treat them like shit. Â Plus I've worked with fast food in the past so it interests me abit, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted February 20, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 20, 2013 It's not always cunts though... A little while ago I saw a "Thank You" card from a satisfied customer on display in a Chicken Cottage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Dead Mike Posted February 20, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted February 20, 2013 I find myself often being overly polite in takeaways mainly because of my mental internal logic that my overt niceness will somehow balance out the shit the poor bastards get from others. I watched half an hour of the Chicken Shop programme last night. It was like a window into the worst parts of night out. I'm in no rush to watch the rest.

Â I have no idea what I was expecting from that Fried Chicken Documentary but it was pretty dull. I just thought it would be alot more interesting then it was. It watched the entire hour of the show and nothing really happened. Â On a slight off note, I thought the prices were fantastic for the food they were serving.
