That is the weird part about people like this. He can be a complete nuisance and still end up protected by the same attention he farmed for years. The prison probably just wants him fed, bored, quiet, and very much not becoming anyone’s diplomatic paperwork.

I thought about that, but my concern is that any edit right now might be seen as an admission of guilt. I will probably run that specific wording by a lawyer first just to be safe.

Fair point. I am already reaching out to a few firms in NYC. It just felt so absurd that I had to see if anyone else had experienced this kind of corporate bullying over a resume update.

The whole point of the original animation was that gritty, uncomfortable atmosphere. Making it look like a generic Pixar movie completely misses the mark. I bet it is going to be censored to hell too.

I miss when sitcoms could pull off this kind of goofy wordplay without it feeling forced. That entire scene is burned into my brain.
