School and prison: two polar opposites; or so we thought. I don’t know what to write for an article, so I guess I’m going to do this. I’m here to educate you that we have actually been going to prison since we were five years old. Keep in mind this is just for fun; don’t get heated over nothing like I know you all do.

Anyways, when I think of prison, I think of a dirty jail cell, violence, and chaos. It’s the exact opposite of this. I read a prisoner’s biography of what his daily life was in jail, and it didn’t seem terrible. Did you know people in prison are allowed to have pets? Yeah, true story (sort of). I would rather be in prison for 8 hours a day then in school.

Anyways, here are the similarities of school and prison.

A good place to start would be the food. I mean, the cafeteria slop. Believe it or not, the food company that attempts to make food for us, The Nutrition Group, also tries to make food for some prisons. But the thing about prison is that the people in there get way more food than we do, and what do we get? Like no food at all. Like I said, prison doesn’t seem that bad so far.

Another thing that is similar is that both school and prison are of a set schedule. Like the bells we have, they have the same thing in jail to know what they are doing, or where they are supposed to be. Although the schedule is stricter in prison than it is school. You know, if some dude doesn’t show up for his job then the building will go into lock down. But if some kid is missing or skipping class at school, people don’t care. If it is an issue then Mr. Sarnese will go looking for them.

Another thing similar would be the people. They stick a whole bunch of crazy people in a tight space, and try to “educate” them and make them better people. I don’t really think this one needs much of an explanation. You all know what I’m talking about, that “crazy” group of kids that are okay one minute, and then are screaming the next. Also, there is a lot of illegal things going around in school and prisons but I’m not even going to talk about that.

I hope I’ve educated you on the similarities of school and prison. This is all just a meme so stay in school and don’t go to prison: that is no good. Jah would not be proud of you.
