[09:02] IsambardPrince If a customer at Walmart tips you for helping them out with a huge TV set or something, and you take it, and management finds out, they can fire you. [09:03] IsambardPrince I don't think that's fair. If the customer says "Gee that was a lot of work. Thank you!" and hands you a $10 bill or something that's their decision. [09:04] IsambardPrince It all boils down to free market ideals, right? If the customer decides to hand you ten dollars of their money, which they were not obligated to, that's their call I think. [09:05] IsambardPrince Now, if Walmart has a policy where you can't solicit a tip, that's fine. That reflects on their business.

[09:45] IsambardPrince Matt and ISIS probably had a more normal marriage than my parents. [09:46] IsambardPrince Okay, maybe not, but you know what I mean. [09:47] IsambardPrince I don't think he's a Scientologist is he? [09:49] IsambardPrince My parents were constantly fighting. [09:49] IsambardPrince Any time you got them in the same house or car together they'd start in on each other. [09:50] IsambardPrince I don't even remember what most of it was about because it was never anything important. [09:50] IsambardPrince He never hit her, but she hit him several times and threatened to claim he was abusing her to the police. [09:51] IsambardPrince But meanwhile, he was confiscating her paychecks and not giving her any of it. He tried to sabotage her so she couldn't go to nursing school. He told her if she didn't already know how to drive when they got married, he never would have taught her to. [09:51] IsambardPrince He said that he didn't want her to go to nursing school so she wouldn't leave him. [09:51] IsambardPrince He would turn off her alarm clocks and he told her she was not allowed to study. [09:52] IsambardPrince So she set another one (since he could sleep through ANYTHING) that he didn't know about. [09:52] IsambardPrince Then she'd slip out the door. [09:53] IsambardPrince Most nights he had the TV on so loud in his "study" (full of porn and Scientology literature), that you could hear it booming through the wall into the bedrooms. [09:53] IsambardPrince He'd stay up until 2-3 AM, get an hour of sleep, then get up for work. [09:53] IsambardPrince Somehow he functioned like this for decades. [09:53] IsambardPrince On Saturdays and Sundays, he slept until 3-4 PM usually, unless he wanted to do something out of town that day. [09:54] IsambardPrince Until about 1991 he smoked. With his wife and child in the car. [09:54] IsambardPrince He not only smoked, he refused to roll the windows down, or let you do it. [09:55] IsambardPrince By the time he was done chain smoking everyone else in the car turned green they were so sick and it looked like rush hour in Beijing in there. [09:55] IsambardPrince He was not normal, at all. He is completely obsessed with porn and every really weird religion you can think of. [09:56] IsambardPrince When I got home from school I had two hours to do whatever I wanted until he got home. I put off doing any homework until he got home around 5:10 PM or so, plus or minus 5 minutes. [09:56] IsambardPrince He didn't care if I was doing homework and never interrupted that. [09:57] IsambardPrince So I saved it for when he was home. [09:58] IsambardPrince He wasn't usually the one to physically punish me for something, unless he had my mother after him to take the belt to me. [09:58] IsambardPrince Because she didn't feel like doing it herself. [09:58] IsambardPrince But she did hit, slap, scratch, spit, and wash my mouth out with dish soap.

[10:01] IsambardPrince It doesn't taste good. [10:01] IsambardPrince I can tell you that. [10:01] IsambardPrince she poured it in my mouth and made me swish it around for a few minutes. [10:01] IsambardPrince Because I said something she didn't like. [10:03] IsambardPrince schestowitz[TR3], She now thinks she's got a pardon from God for being a really shitty person her whole life. [10:03] IsambardPrince And as long as she gives the church $10,000 a year she's good. [10:04] IsambardPrince She could say "Hey, I'm sorry I wasn't there for you.
