for any hardcore readers of my website

you've probably seen me talk about all the good and all the bad about going to jail

having 3 meals a day brought to you

getting to have an entire group of men to think with

an entire group of men to watch tv with

getting to go outside and play

risking losing your hearing to all the loud noises

all the weird rules you would never know

being treated like a dog for the most part

having to be locked in rooms with others

but the funny thing is

if you go for violence like I did

for someone that has "bad roomate behavior"

you'll get in your first room

that has a rule obsessed person a cool person and a weird person

then second room is a cool old guy that gets grumpy a quiet guy and a crazy guy that claps in his sleep and collects toilet paper they'll all help you but basically the old guy can't hear the guy clapping and it's all you hear when you try to sleep and he does it basically like it is your thought process he is playing clap on clap off with

then the third room

is a guy that licks his lips all night another quiet guy and a guy that humps the bed staring at you like he's going to get you

basically all you wait for is the doors to open so you can run

then you get the guy that's not in your room but is wildly addicted to you to the point any free time he is by you to the point you eat your ramen in the shower to get away from him lol

but like what you didn't like about your house

making noise, loud, weird, weird rules

all that you didn't like that made you fight and wind up in jail

it all shows itself again but it's people you don't have much say over and can ask to change but that's just light it doesn't mean much

the bad roommate would pee for 30 mins straight

then in jail you'll have someone in your room that pees for 45 mins straight

your bad roommate will wake you up during the night

but in jail you'll have someone in your room that keeps you up literally all night long

your bad roommate has his weird rules

but in jail you'll get someone that makes up 10x more rules

BUT you don't have to walk around like you love them

you don't have to love them they're not family

and that small thing not having to love them

is what changes everything

you realize you had to love that bad roommate and you do not need to love this group of people

then you get out and it's forced 100% you can have zero contact

and that's like the greatest day ever

all you wanted was to be left alone

I 100% support fighting back

if you were in the situation I was in

I would probably suffer some massive issue and be stuck in invalid bedrest living some sick dream

I fought back

and my life is basically perfect

I got out of all my trouble

I got it good now because I did fight back

and even the state of texas respects that

sure you become a statistic

but it is good

sure if you can just move on out on your own that's the best thing

I didn't think I could do that

but I went to jail and right when I got out I got an apt

I love my life now

I got no one pushing me around making me work for them and being complete hogs

eating my food telling me things I can and can't do

taking my money

taking my medicine

I'm so happy I don't even need to drink or smoke

basically if you were at where I was at

first I would say just move out

but second if you can't which I really didn't think I could

consider fighting back

you become a statistic

but it sure got a hell of a lot better for me
