Is this how I find out that other people find finding out that someone's going to prison less normal than I do?

There. Now my brain can process this.

Should take a screenshot and post to the "aneurysm posts" community.

After reading it multiple times, I understand now what was meant, they just lacked proper punctuation.

The OP is surprised, that other people don't find it normal that people go to prison.

So a difference in life experience, because I also don't know anybody who went to prison.

ah, right. Yes. I'll make sure to call you when I need a complex parser

I think OP is actually asking if this is a normal way to find out someone is going to prison. Not that people do go to prison, but hearing the news via gaming stuff.

No, I saw the screenshot in the article of "going to PRISON?!?!?!" and thought, you know, I don't think that's all that schocking in itself. Granted it had the look of Tumblr about it and Tumblr's signature move is overreacting, in hindsight.

The punctuation is correct. The wording is just confusing.

I'm laughing quite hard now but I do apologise. Hopefully this makes it clearer:

  • "Is this how I find out that
    • "other people find
      • "finding out that someone's going to prison"
    • less normal than I do?""

I'm slowly wrapping my head around it, the indentation helps !
