>When [Wallace’s sister Amy] was three, he knocked out her front teeth. When he was in ninth grade, he got so mad at her… that he pushed her down and dragged her through the backyard through the excrement left by their dog.

She beat the crap out of me regularly and would bang her head against the tile when my dad would ground her for bringing random guys to the house to bang.
She's cool now, but when we were teens she was a selfish asshole.
