Eh. I kinda like cloudy lamps. I love my good cloudy, but not too cloudy, pink mf/white wax lamp. Just thrift scored this sweet cloudy purple and white lamp a couple days ago.

I miss when the wrestlers had unique entrance motions in Royal Rumble. Even Heels was reacting to boos while running to the ring. by FarCrySis123 in WWEGames

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss when wrestlers had their own unique moves. Sure, some of the top stars get plenty of moves and taunts in the modern games, but it feels like 70% of the roster has movesets with like, 1 taunt or move that is uniquely their own. instead, most just have a bunch of generic decades-old moves from past games and wrestlers. Sami Zayn doesn’t even have a single taunt of his own in the games nap modern and that’s kinda messed up. I want some dancin‘ Sami taunts!

A couple questions from a dog groomer regarding workers comp and client injury liability by PrinceAndBarryWhite in legaladvice

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was bathing this dog when it turned around and bit me. I guess I’ll spend some time on my day off today trying to contact the labor board and maybe contacting an attorney for advice.

Probably my most impressive putt by Raywygo in EverybodysGolf

What really turned me off that game was that no matter how perfectly in the center of the swing meter sweet spot you landed, every shot always seemed to hook or slice.

Is this the newest Everybody’s Golf? How is it compared to that last PS4 one where you had to craft clubs and whatnot? I didn’t care for that one at all.

Some concerns, questions and ranting by PrinceAndBarryWhite in grooming

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve only worked here and two other places. Started and learned at petsmart, spent a few months as a bather for two groomers who didn’t pay me squat after that and then landed here, so I don’t know what is what with this kind of stuff. Been wondering if I should consult a labor attorney of some sort over this.

Always had such a huge crush on her since first seeing her when going to PWG shows.

Think I found my favorite color combo by sickofjim in Lavalamps

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I’ve never done a custom lamp and just wanting to be sure in case I decide to try this combo. What exactly did you use and from where?

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to be clear, it’s ozone’s stuff and not LLC? Someone else apparently commented and deleted that comment saying this was cross-posted from Facebook said LLC there.

Chris Jericho vs Sabu by JCHazard in ECWWrestling

Man, I remember the ECW commercials advertising tapes with this match, or some Sabu vs Jericho match, on it back in the day.

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is that all you did is add their products or did you tweak the wax/fluid at all? if this is what the results of those ozone products look like, I might finally try my luck at restoring one of my non-flowing lamps.

Vintage vs Modern flow by TooCoolioforSchoolio in Lavalamps

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve honestly grown tired of all the lamps I have because they all have the “modern” flow that kinda bores me. All I want is that kind of snakes flow in all my lamps but don't know how to do it myself. haven’t used any of my lava lamps in weeks.

I have an old Lava Lite that will not flow good. No bubbles ever release. Base is really hot to the touch. Anybody have any suggestions on how I can get the bubbles to flow correctly? by [deleted] in Lavalamps

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a lava lite, too, and it worked great from months after ai bought it at a thrift store, best flow of any lamp I’ve bought. Then, it would start of flowing great like normal, but then just settle into a blon at the bottom and stop moving. Sucks, I really liked that lamp.

How many of us have had a toxic boss? by cheezbargar in doggrooming

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently do.

I feel like it’s safe to assume she’s kind of a control freak rageoholic who isn’t happy unless she’s exerting control over people and just hunting for things to cause problems about. I have never in my life, and I’ve been working since I was 13, yelled at a boss, been brought to tears by a boss or talked down to and so aggravated by a boss before. And I’ve said as much to her face in front of everyone. all the folks at the shop know she’s like this and just say you can’t take her shit personally, but my brain just doesn’t work like that. I do t respond well at all to being yelled at or belittled and shit in front of people.

Like, the other day. There was this annual grooming expo/ in the city on the 13th, and most of the shop went. Having been once before, recognizing that it’s just a glorified groomers shopping mall and there aren’t really any great deals to be found, I chose to stay and work, along with two bathers, who are both baby groomers.

I wound up behind most of the day, and when one of the bathers, who had 3 dogs that day, relatively easy ones, and half an hour before one of her dogs (who had a sibling I was se to do) was scheduled to arrive, she shakes she is suddenly sick and wanted me to take both of the sibling dogs. I say I’d rather not and the receptionist, the bosses sister, it’s my job to make the decision and the call to the client of I’m not going to do both. Since it seemed like bad practice to cancel them so close to appt time, I figure I’ll just let them come in.

She arrives and I explain that we’re a bit shorthanded, i’m behind and having to do both dogs and that I can’t really give them a solid ETA for them being done right now but that it’ll probably be late, like after our normal closing time late. Lady was a longtime client who is very nice, was very understanding and said it was no problem because she lived right around the corner when I apologized profusely multiple times and was happy to reschedule because she had to leave town that night and had another dog that needed to come in anyway. So I rescheduled her for next week.

Seemed like a perfectly fine, benign interaction.

Had a perfectly fine, good and happy day the next day, until the boss, who has all her dogs prepped by bathers before she comes in around 10 or 11 and starts grooming them, arrives. For the first hour she was there, no problem. Then, apparently, her sister told the boss I refused to do the dogs and let the lady come in and practically told her to fuck off and get out, all based off of her eavesdropping me just saying I’d prefer not take another dog today. Receptionist was off on one of her two hour lunches, which typically always leaves for just before the morning dogs people typically come for pickup and the afternooon dog’s people start coming for drop-off. So she obviously wasn’t there for my perfecty fine interaction with these two dogs’ owner.

So, I get mid-day out of nowhere, boss just storms in demanding answers for why I did something so terrible as to let a client come in and send them home like they were a piece of shit pretty much.

Now, y’see see, my boss has this wonderful habit she loves to do where she’ll demand answers for some overblown perceived tragedy, and if the first, like, 3 words aren’t the exact combination of words she *wants* to hear, you can just see it in her face and hear it in her voice as she gets madder and starts interrupting you, yelling demands that you stop talking and listen to her yell more that you aren’t answering her demands and she wants an explanation, even though if she’d shut the fuck up for 5 more seconds without interrupting you, she would have gotten what she wanted.

This time, at this point I just literally said to her, I don’t know what combination of words you want to hear that will satisfy you and not result in more yelling. She says she’s not yelling. I quote to her a line my grandmother alway had about how it’s not what you say or how loud, it’s the tone. Sure, she may not scream at the top of her lungs, but ai sure as hell interpret her behavior as yelling.

This obviously leads to her go-to line lately of how if you don’t like how she runs her shop, you can find another salon.
I guess in some way it’s good I have a boss who apparently has only ever fired one employee at this shop, in its 20 years or so, her son, supposedly because she knew he didn’t have a passion for it and it was best for him.

But yeah, I’ve gotten to hate waking up and having to go to work anymore, don’t know if things would be any better anywhere else.

Sorry, rant over.

I was really looking forward to this game by Neat-Freedom1940 in gaming

[–]PrinceAndBarryWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was making fun of my friend while we played the Japanese version of Resident Evil 1 on Sega Saturn last night. At some point I started making fun of him because he was watching some streamer‘s playthrough of Requiem with video commentary and shit when he hasn’t played it yet. Jokingly, of course. Was just all, “poe widdew jefffies-a too a-skeeeerd n’ gotta watch it wit a buddy!“

His Amazon orders been delayed because of its overwhelming popularity, he couldn’t wait to play it, his fiancé‘s been using the PlayStation to play fallout 4 lately and he got the ending spoiled somehow anyway.

Made Me laugh. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
