• 2:35
  Speaker 1: If you're in a super Walmart, you need to know
• 2:38

  Speaker 2: lived in Verden, Illinois for a couple of years, very
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: small town in central Illinois. Now Saline is a pretty
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: big town. I'm thinking of some of the smaller towns
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: I've lived in. Passed through a super Walmart in terms
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: of square footage, how does that compare with like the
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: town square where most of the businesses are in a
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: little American bigger more Yeah? Yeah, back to the Babylon Bee,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: absolute psychopath. It's microwave counting down all the way to zero?
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Is that a common thing?
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: I do that because I hate the beeping. I hate
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: beeping out of electronics. Who decided we needed that? Why
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: can't you turn it off all the time? I don't eed,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: bit bit, bit bit bit? Why so many beeps to
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: let me know you got to zero on my freaking
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: pop tart. God, dang it.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Wow number one. Put it in a toaster.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Oh it pierces my brain.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Oh interesting.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Ah.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: My wife used to make fun of me speaking of
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: a microwaves because I would regularly heat some something for
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: seventeen seconds or twenty three or whatever, because I would.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Say, Hey, here's the question. Is it always an odd number? No,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: because I'm always an even number on my what I
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: set my microwave for. I can't even imagine setting it
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: for an odd number.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: I have confessed in the past that I used to
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: only change my air conditioning in my car by even numbers.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: If I was at seventy two and it was, you know,
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: it was chillier than I needed, I'd move it up
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: to seventy four. I would never do odd numbers. And
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: because OCD runs in my family a lot of family,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I convince myself, Nope, you've got to fight it. I'm
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: talking to myself now, You've got to fight that sort
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: of impulse. You've got to regularly do the opposite of it,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: realize everything's great, and move on with your day.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: You think that's helpful.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: It feels like it is.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know, it does seem because I have one
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: kid who's got OCD to a pretty high degree, and
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: it can kind of take over your life. So maybe
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: fighting it at the lower level is better so it
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: doesn't grow.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't want to out anybody, but I have
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: been very, very surprised to learn fairly recently how prevalent
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: it is in my family.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: H Yeah, it comes in different sizes, like I have
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a little bit of it, but nothing that has any
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: effect on my life. But I can't imagine choosing an
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: odd number on the microwave.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: I think I was in my middle ages. Yeah, that's funny.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: That's funny. I was in my middle ages before I
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: realized how much depression there was in my mom's family.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, like back in the day when treatments were
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: not very good, people hospitalized and shock treatments and stuff
