6. That Norwegian prison that guy is held in is nicer than most college dorms.

And I'm not kidding!

Luxury prison built in Norway
A luxury prison containing en-suite bathrooms, £1 million Banksy-style art and windows without bars, has been built in Norway.

Each inmate gets a private cell with mini-fridge, flat-screen TV and even a private en-suite bathroom and barless windows - because they let in more sunlight.
Then for every 12 to 15 rooms there is a top-spec kitchen with stainless steel work tops and lounge areas complete with IKEA-style sofas and coffee tables.
To cap-off their stay at Halden the prisoners are also able to use a gym, complete with rock-climbing wall, a music studio, and a luxury library.
Architect Hans Henrik Hoilund said Holden was designed to ensure prisoners did not re-offend.

Re-offend? If you're homeless, it sounds like a nice place to hang! It might motivate those without flat screens and gym access to "offend" just to get the perks...!

I'm only half-kidding, too...!
