I guess I get the “Most Original Entry” award this week. :eek:

You are probably right. Looks like most of us couldn’t resist the literal approach.

“Fish: A new inmate at prison.” Thanks, urbandictionary.com :slight_smile:
Who in the name of Suzanne came up with that term…?!

Who knows, it is probably something not intended for general audiences.

When picking my subject I have to remember that even though everyone here understands English, they probably don’t understand American. :stuck_out_tongue:

As American English is dominating a lot of worldwide distributed media products (movies, music, …) that probably isn’t that much of a problem for most people. Slang (in any language) may be another story (e.g. London’s Cockney - I have no idea how anyone can understand that ;-)). As said before I looked up “fish” on urbandictionary.com - https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/fish on the other hand didn’t know of that meaning…

According to this thred

Using fish or fresh fish for inmates dates back to 1863. I am not a native English speaker but I do know the reference well.

And since i have been in jail I know the feeling, looking at your new world as a fish in a bowl.

I don’t recommend it to anyone

Sorry to hear that Napivo. I hope I didn’t trigger any bad memories. I apologize if I did.

It was either that or I was going to redo this in either low poly or cartoon, but I was not sure if anyone was going to get the reference or if I was going to pull it off in time. I don’t know how many of you have seen the movie Airplane.

Classic.
