the means by which inmates who are locked down pass things, including commissary items, from cell to cell
How do inmates trade goods in supermaximum when they are never allowed out of their cells? The answer is by "fishing."
A fishing line consists of a long piece of string with a weight attached to one end. The string is usually obtained from bed sheets or prison attire. Weights can be made from combs, soap, plastic bags containing toothpaste, or the flat end of a toothpaste tube snapped off from the rest of the tube, the latter option being the most popular due to its efficiency. Using these items an inmate can assemble a fishing line in excess of twenty-feet long.
To exchange goods with someone housed on the same floor, two inmates will first ascertain whether each of them have sufficient lengths of fishing line to meet each other. Every cell door at SMU2 has a two-centimeter gap between the bottom of the door and the floor. The possessor of the longest fishing line will slide his weight under his door in the direction of the room that he wishes to trade with. Depending upon his fishing skills, it may take several attempts to get the weight into the desired area. Following a failed attempt, the inmate simply yanks the line back into his cell and tries again. When the weight is in a good spot, the second inmate will slide his weight out, aiming to catch his weight on his trading partners line. Upon snagging the line, the second inmate will then reel in both lines. The lines are then securely tied and store items can be transferred to and fro by attaching a large Manila envelope to the joint line, and filling it with the desired goods.
Passing flat items such as stamps, envelopes, newspapers, pen refills, and paper is easy. Larger items such as chips (crisps) or candy bars have to be squashed flat or crushed into particles. Coffee and stamps are the two most heavily-traded items.
How do inmates housed upstairs trade with inmates housed below them? This requires lengthy fishing lines and considerable talent. The upstairs inmate slides his weight directly out from under his cell door and over the balcony in the direction of the inmate downstairs who he wishes to trade with. It may take several attempts to get the weight positioned in a good spot downstairs. The downstairs inmate then slides his weight out and when the two are connected he reels them both in. Items can be passed up and down, between the two floors, via the two joined lines using envelopes or plastic bags.
Sometimes, mishaps occur, lines may snap and loads may get stuck on the run. Fishing rods made out of newspaper can be used to retrieve lost items or lines when such accidents happen.
Fishing is banned and opportunistic guards will snatch fishing lines. Getting caught fishing after receiving a warning can result in an inmate getter stripped out. Being stripped out consists of an invasive strip search followed by a rigorous cell search. Master fishermen will generally fish after the hourly guard walks, to minimise their chances of losing their lines.
When fishing traffic is in full flow, the run takes on a life of its own. Envelopes are rapidly sliding across the floor and plastic bags can be seen floating upwards as if they were balloons. Fishing lines are barely visible, so to an observer it looks as if ghosts are moving objects around. It is an amazing sight to first lay eyes on, and a credit to inmate ingenuity.

Get the Fisting mug.A predominant trait almost exclusive to women of Asian descent where the vagina possesses a tight curve and lack of depth coupled with durable elasticity. Anthropologists have determined this trait was the result of Han Chinese becoming common genetic ancestry following the defeat of Miao and the Li during the Battle of Zhuolu in 26th century BC. This unique vagina configuration was first thought as bodily defense to insure a genetically pure sexual reproduction. The vagina possess a physical obstacle with its curve that makes penetration difficult from a thicker penis, its shallow depth and elasticity cause an effect known as wondering cervix; causing a longer penis glands to travel along the side cervix pointing the meatus away from the cervical canal.
This female trait has been criticized for the decline of Asian penis sizes; the decline was a result of a need for a smaller penis proper sexually reproduction, this decline has mirror the enlargement of the physical obstructions in the females vagina.
In modern culture Asian women have found it an empowering trait when having sexual intercourse with men of far removed ethnic heritage with lager penises. During penetration the larger penis requires a large amount of force to fully penetrate while wondering cervix rubbing the meatus of the penis randomly producing a great deal of pleasure for the male.
This trait has been known as a contributing factor of contracting “Yellow Fever” in men of non-Asian descent.

Get the Dick Fishing mug.Not only the name of a seriously kinky sexual act, anal fisting is also a gamed to be played in extremely public areas. Taken from the idea of ‘bogeys’ and originating from Ryton rugby club the object of the game is to shout anal fisting as loud as possible in the most public place trying to get as much attention of possible. The way to win the game is to out shout your opponent so that they give up as they feel it is getting to embarrassing.
