The upside of solitary probably is that you can drop the soap...

Oh my lord! I should have known it would have been something you'd say to give me my first laugh of the day! :p

Wouldn't solitary be an Aspie's dream? If Grumpy Cat nurse worked there, I'd have to slip the warden a note letting him know you're Aspie. ;) No solitary for you! :p

Beware, you might get wrinkles from laughing ;) and subsequently, Grumpy cat would not be amused, since you act out of character :P

However... good to hear at least something got you laughing *tips hat*
 
Solitary might be ok for many of us, but considering what picky eaters we can be, it might turn out to be quite a raw deal. :eek:

I'd be "scared straight" just from the bad food alone....

I'd fear for eventually wearing one of those Hannibal Lecter masks for assaulting a guard and taking a chomp out of them :D
 
that doesn't mean that you're weird
Nah, I'm definitely weird, zombies notwithstanding.
What do you think about with so much time to spare in there.. not You specifically! (He hastened to add).. just.. in there?
I consider survival, warmth, food, comfort.. basic stuff really, my freedom.. daily life :)

Then again with bad food I could get skinny enough to slip between the bars and go on a furlough. :p

In this day and age were everything is digital... I doubt I'd last long, lol. Honestly; it's a matter of time until they get rid of physical money and do everything from account to account... and that's where even mugging someone to have money to survive becomes tricky.

I suppose, for now.. .yeah, it would work :D

Must disagree there, King, me old son, with all due respect, credit is a social phase, physical money cannot disappear as it has more value than 'plastic money' and always will!
Imagine a world without power.. your credit card may open a door, but it won't get you food.. too deep, sorry.. just being prepared and all that :D
Hey, bin cold often enough.. I stock for tough times :)
 
You sound like the perfect post-apocolypse surviver.. (non zombie-fodder) bit of a.. hobby of mine.. more respect, Dudess!

Note: Does this make me seem weird?
Feedback welcome! :D

if surviving the apocolypse is your hobby, no, it doesnt make you seem weird, only more interesting if anything.

and who knows, maybe one day your skills and all you've learned will be needed. oh, let's not think about that...

but with all the dangers of today, here and now, I wouldnt be too concerned about an upcoming apocolypse. more likely to die from today's danger. it's good to have a hobby, and there's nothing wrong with that.

I'm thinking guns and ammo would be the best currency in really tough times.;)
 
if you had to choose between six months in jail with white-collar, non-violent criminals, no violence from staff, good food and medical care available, but NOT free to walk in the building freely, locked in a cell, allowed one hour a day in the yard.

Under these conditions, I'd take jail. It wouldn't be much different than my daily life.

your daily life is like jail?
that doesnt sound good. I dont hate my job, have a beautiful feral cat in my house, my nieces within walking distance, and i enjoy long solitary walks, just looking at trees and bushes. my life dont feel like jail. if your daily life seems like jail to you, maybe it's time for a change.

I love being alone, but cant lose my freedom, cant have someone making every decision for me, when to wake up, when to go to sleep, shower, eat.

and i love to walk and be outside, love the outdoors, and the company of feral cats and domistic dogs.

Sadly, yes ... my daily life is like jail, and my business partner is my warden. Luckily, I do have cats all over the place, both at my house and my partner's house where we have our office. That part is good ... at least when I'm not worrying about having to get all these feral girls fixed before mating season, and making sure I have shelters made for them all before the first freeze. The rest of it, though ... nah ... I could definitely use a furlough.
 
Would anyone understand if I say it is my hatred of the sun that makes me choose jail over life outdoors in a Californian climate?
Now, life outdoors in any of the other states I've lived in, that I might consider...

my cat is the light of my life, and two other cats come in from outside to eat, and i dont have the heart the say no, so i'll work more hours just to buy their food.

mine, hazelnut, is black and white girl looks like a miniature cow with black patches on top and a white stomach, black face with a white triangular right between the eyes, and a black patch on her white chin, touching the lip.

the others that get in are a fat brown striped one and a lovely black one.

is it the heat that bothers you, or the brightness hurting your sensitive aspie eyes?
