Yes, that's what I want. :roll: ASL requests out of the way, now we can get down to the stereotyping and prejudice that comes with these gender labels. I just have a doomsday future view of what can go wrong with gender on display. And aren't these messages viewable by the public? Yes, I want the wh... |

Just a friendly reminder that a hospital stay runs around $800 per day, just for the room. Extra treatment, like medication, meals, and therapy sessions can run your stay into the thousands. Your minimum stay would be 2 days, I'm guessing, just to make sure you are stable for -- do I get this right?... |

If you had one, I would leave it. Somebody would have to be working and paying the bills for this commune, and I think that several necessary jobs would go undone, because nobody would be enabled enough to do them. We would have to get NTs to work for us on some jobs. Then there would be a necessary... |

I get racist accusations rarely. One man asked me for a date and when I said no, he brought up the race card. Since he lives in my apartment complex, he gives me a disgusted look now. Hey, I never brought it up, wasn't thinking about it at the time. I said no because I couln't help but notice the st... |

It is easier than it seems. Once, I went to a nearby city, picked a charity that looked like it needed help, walked in, and volunteered some hours. They let me in immediately, I got a free pizza from it too. You can give any name you want. If they ask for ID, show it, but insist on them calling you ... |

It's springtime! That means spring flings. I doubt he will sign you into his will on the first date. Take the chance. You never know how a date could normalize his sleeping disorder. You are overthinking - stop it! :) Don't look at the disabilities and get pre-judging happening. Sure would not want ... |

I get migraines from all temperatures of red peppers, bell peppers to the fiery types of red peppers. Fiery mouth, burned belly, sting in the eyes if you rub them with your fingers. What goes in must come out, so your O-ring might be stinging as the hot "exits the building". |

Move to Arizona! No daylight savings here - we have enough sun already. 88 degrees on the first day of spring, if I recall correctly. Can't wait for the 115°F days |

Don't forget: you need about fifty bucks to take the test, so the smart thrifty people skip the chance. Great, if you want to play with the eggheads, but sort of intimidating when you meet the child doctors and people with 200 IQs. |

117. Not my favorite type of IQ test, because it is all written, in english, and it's short! Normally I get more than that in IQ tests, over 130 at least. I feel puny now. |

Get real. She's 17, he's a drug-popper with a gimpy leg, and if swearing were acceptable on public tv, he would probably be swearing up a blue streak. The House character probably would not go after anything right in front of him. He would like a good chase, someone hard to get, someone with experie... |

Why get diagnosed? For another patch on the vest of diagnoses? Just self-diagnose. Not like they have pills to adjust dyslexia that would require a diagnosis to prescribe. Not like it is a mental illness or anything - it's a learning disorder (or an info processing disorder, something like that). Yo... |

If people are like sheep, like the Bible mentions, then a megachurch is a bunch of sheep under one roof, like those big livestock-raising farms. The type of farms that animal rights activists are always fighting to bring down. It seems to be the kind of church where people visit, and they have a har... |

Rumor has it that my grandma made money by being a prostitute. Each of her sons has a separate dad. This was back in the late 1920's, early 1930's, around the time of the Great Depression. My great uncle moved out of America to France, and he married his daughter, so she would get his millions, and ... |

Go for the SSI first before you're too broke, because it takes time for the potential funds to get back to you. On the side, keep looking for work, apply for work you think you would not like, and temp work, not just the work that looks good to you. Multiple streams of income if you can. Getting fir... |

Men and women do type differently. In a chatroom, without hints from the nickname, I can tell the age and sex of someone based on their choice and rhythm of words. Most men-chats I've noticed are dry, they don't use a lot of descriptive words, they mention objects in their chats, they don't hesitate... |
