Yeah I remember a skit I think on Key and Peele, but maybe something else, of a dude doing that. Didn't seem like it would make sense irl at all.
It's from The Big Lebowski
Pretty sure I'm thinking of SNL actually.

Do people still have to go door to door and tell their neighbors they're a registered sex offender? Or was that never true? I remember hearing that but not from an official source.
Not every sex offense requires neighborhood notification. Some charges you don't have to tell anybody, some you have to notify every residence within a certain distance from your home. That generally falls in line with what tier you are (here in Ohio, there's 3 tiers of varying degrees of severity). But the judge is also able to add or remove specific restrictions from the standard for your tier.
In case anybody's wondering where I got all this info, I had a family member go through this. It's taken a very long time and a whole lot of work, but he's genuinely turned his life around. He's a good guy now. He wasn't back when he was offending, but he learned his lesson the first time and put in the effort to change (and the change is very noticeable). It's a shame it took getting caught for him to realize what he was doing, but it's an even bigger shame that most people who get caught still don't realize it and end up re-offending. I give him a lot of credit for the progress he's made and continues to make.
Can you ever get off the sex offender registry? ---
