  2. Totally. I mean, look at Richard Pryor. They say he's labeled as the best comedian of all time. Grew up in a whorehouse, watch his mom get plowed by these guys in the middle of Indiana, I want to say. And just who had a harder life? He would suck dick for drugs, all this stuff growing up, beat up. And then the weird thing is, oops, sorry, that's my birth control alarm. And then the whole world is trying to get rid of bullying.

  5. Pushed around. I was never hospitalized or anything, but you know, you get a black guy here and there and a bloody nose, stuff like that. And it was just the outnumbered thing. The violence didn't really bother me because you're just kids. You're boys. But it was Predatory. Let's get them. You know, we can take him down. He's an easy target. That's what kills you. Mental part

  6. Yeah, and I remember coming home crying with no bike, and my mom, my parents are like liberal to a fault. You know, where they were like, oh, well, they need it. They're poor kids in the neighborhood. And you're like, all right, but I also have a bicycle that I ride around, you know, and I also like to live in an area that's not just. Know riddled with theft and vandalism, but they were just like, ah, they need it. And then it was a moot point. We just moved on. So I remember very young being like, all right, I got to figure my shit out.

  8. Kids that day. So I let them put paint on me. And so now I'm riding home. What a mark. What a goober I am. I'm riding home and these guys see me a mile away. I'm a sitting duck and they go, we can take his bike. He's got a fucking rainbow on his cheek. So they just go, hey, cut in front of you. They go, let me try your bike. I go, I'm good. I'm good. I knew what they wanted. And they go, let me try the bike and then just push me and took the bike. So stuff like that was really shaping the insecurity. self-worth.

  9. I don't know if it made me the man, but geez, I had a lot of scuffles in the neighborhood. I was the white kid in the neighborhood. So I was automatically the odd man out, the minority, the weirdo, the dork, the dweeb, the honky. So just a lot of memories of getting slapped in the face by guys and just having to take it because there's like five guys there. And they'd be like, oh, look, you don't even fight back. And you're like, well, what am I going to do? hit you and then get beat up by these guys so a lot of that stuff was a big bummer growing up got robbed all the time lost a lot of bicycles had a bicycle taken from under me that was pretty brutal uh these kids pulled up you know they're like 17 and i was 13 and i had a face paint on like i had a not black face but i was at a summer camp and i had a rainbow face painted on me we were helping

  12. I think it's an antiquated idea. I think it's kind of silly and unrealistic. And I think we're coming out of that as we get all polyamorous and non-binary and Kuiffi and all this stuff. I think we're slowly moving away from that. But I think a lot of the ladies more majority women like marriage, like the idea of it. I'm a fianc ⁇ now or whatever you call it. I'm engaged. And I mean, she is just going hog wild. She's loving it. She's got the dress thing, pick a venue, flower, and she's deep in, whereas I feel guilty because I'm just like, ah, geez.

  13. That It was comfort, it was routine. And we just slipped into that kind of married life autopilot world. I tried to break up, I think, and it didn't take. It was one of those things. Our lives are just so baked in. And then I think I cheated and she caught me and it was ugly. And then we went to therapy to try to work it out. But it's much like a car that gets into a wreck. The door just never closes the same. You know what I mean?

  14. I do, but I think it's work. Everybody wants love to be this pre-packaged, perfect, euphoric thing, but you gotta. It's like a good body, you know? We're all born with a good body, but you got to keep it in shape, and it's the same with a loving relationship.
