When I was about 8 years old (2016) I woke up early while my parents were still asleep and turned on the TV to see what to watch. Superjail was on and I cried due to so much gore being on the TV, even if it was cartoon gore. I was 8.

Dad standing on top of mountain, looks thru binoculars, sees backs of family's heads. "It's a closed world, son"

And now you're even older And now you're older still
