last year i was talking to my mother and she was telling me she was going to finally fix her lazy eye. I looked at her eyes it was clear as day, one was completely looking the wrong way, she had been like this for 20 years, after a failed operation on it.

| Do NOT disclose -- UNLESS you are asked, and it's thus inevitable. I used to work as a substitute teacher. I used to reveal that I had ASD to the teachers. Not a single problem came from that last year. However, this year, under a new substitute employer, and at a new school, I revealed to one of t... |

She started off as my supervisor, but with in the first 3 months her boss put me directory under him removing any power she had over me. My mother used to work in a different department an... |

| and yet i think i enjoyed skyrim more. I don't know why. Exposure to hype and advertising? I don't mean to sound snarky or patronising, but Skyrim is worse in every aspect, so it's what I have to assume. Or maybe being able to choose and create your own character, while The Witcher already has a pr... |

I agree with the "left right" not really fitting into modern day politics.
