      Maybe we can focus on Office Space jokes instead

      WILD that you’re getting downvoted. Seems some agree a person can “deserve to be raped”… y’all need to do better.

      Idgaf if they’re convicted of the most heinous crime, rape and mental torture was not part of the sentence handed out in court. Never mind that there’s thousands of people who are wrongly convicted.

        OP was quoting Office Space. A character in the movie is scared of prison and thinks that the worst punishment would be time in a minimum security detention center until they are corrected by another character who uses the overly dramatic “point you in the ass” prison to describe the level of misery that the character will be in.

        You can hate the joke but OP is using it correctly.

          It’s still needlessly being repeated, and trivializes prison rape as a ‘normal’ thing. I can cherry pick lines from a bunch of movies like Blazing Saddles or Django Unchained that are inappropriate - but it’d be ‘using it correctly’ right?

        Would this land someone in federal shank-me-in-the-ass prison?

          No, an example of a better joke about prison.
