Story from someone getting out of prison...
“My best friend got out in January after twelve years. He can’t handle the awesomeness of Netflix. Also booking shit online. I’m still teaching him Amazon. Oh and you pick your seat at the movie theater…I’m not really over that yet either.”
Um, it's been about twelve years since I went to a movie theatre with any regularity, but from the 1970s till recently, I've never, ever been in a theatre were you DIDN'T pick your own seat. What weird world did that guy live in?

“In like 2015 I met a guy who went to jail in 1997 and had just got out. The big thing he noticed was that there weren’t as many large groups of youth out and about like when he was a kid. He said the saddest thing he saw was going to the local park and seeing almost nobody there at 6pm, when he went in the 90s there were typically 50-60 young people hanging out skating around and socializing.
I suppose the way we socialize has changed so much since then. Back then the only way you could socialize was by leaving your house and hanging out with friends, even doing nothing with friends was preferable to just hanging out inside, today people don’t do that as much.”

In prison you're assigned seats when you go to a theater.

Sure, but you still remember things that are the same from before you went in. Twelve years is not a long time to remember going to the movies.
Like you wouldn't get out of prison after twelve years without a hamburger and be surprised that hamburgers exist, just as they did before you went in.

Is that how you thank someone for mowing your grass?

Maybe he was mowing someone else's lawn.
