The first thing I have to say is don't ask me where the hell these conversations come from!
We all know the prison stories about Jamal or Bubba having his fun with the fresh meat in the pokey. Most of us have probably seen American History X when Ed Norton gets railed like a malaysian prostitue, Butterfly Effect with the biting, or even Shawshank Redemption.
In all of those movies their is only one little depiction of unwanted Brokeback action, but we have to assume that it happens quite often in prison. Some of us have also learned that the best way to neutralize an enemy is to embrace the manner in which they are trying to attack you. Those of us who know Erran saw the Night at the Roxbury spoof of him and Nick. If not, it was someone making fun of them for being out in the clubs every night and to those that don't know them, seeing a couple of douchebags wearing sunglasses in a dark club and obliterating their livers with the swiftness of a Chuck Norris roundhouse.
Instead of fighting back and raging about it, they embraced it. Erran commented on the blog, posted bulletins and just had a good time with it. The attack on them was negated and made meaningless.
So, back to Oz for a minute. If you happened to find yourself in prison would it be better to take the same approach, or fight for the sanctity of the cinnamon ring? Do you drop trou' pucker up and go fabulous in order to run off your attacker and pray that it works? Do you fight as hard as you can against 5 Aryans and get you ass kicked before it gets turned into mayo smothered ground beef? Do you run like hell and lock yourself in your cell to save for another day?
I have to say, I would take an ass kicking every day, maybe figure out how to McGuyver a shank out of a cot spring and a blanket. I don't think I could embrace the attack. My chocolate starfish is definately thanking me for the effort. It throws a parade in my pants for my heroism.
What do all of you think? Freddie Mercury or Freddy Mills?
