Prison Lingo — Revisited (reposted w/o the pesky paywall) Prison is a strange world unto itself. It comes with its own set of rules--the convict code-- and a unique language.

The expression comes from an inmate serving such a long sentence that his release date is so far out in the future that it sounds like science fiction.
