One could make a decent case for either my awfulness or my wonderfulness. People sometimes idolized me, and then hated me in my youth. I always took it as a sign of mental imbalance on their part, but now I wonder if they didn't have a point, after all.

for some reason when i joined here i thought you people would be like me but i feel like when I'm on this site its like I'm someones shrink or someones ex wife or something and I'm just helping everyone through there s**t and i just feel distant. i don't even know why I'm here right now.

i think i actually relate but i just want to check: when were you idalyzed?

I have lived in Iowa City for 6 years and I f*****g hate it there is absolutely nothing to do in this pretentious god for saken city. It is the epi-center of mediocrity when it comes to everything; Music, culture EVERYTHING. Every event is a alcohol fueled music show where the music sucks and everyone is drunk. The festivals are just stupid corporate sponsored family gatherings The only thing that has changed is a new theater but that hasn't really improved things. THERE ARE NO GOOD MUSEUMS, MUSIC SHOWS or ANYTHING to do. THE whole town is getting more expensive without any of the perks because f*****g CHINESE AND CHICAGO STUDENTS have MORE MONEY THAN BRAIN CELLS. The whole city is just one big real estate plot and nothing else. The people are either really snoody, simpleton farmers or too crazy to hang around.

The reason IOWA in general is behind is because millionaire farmers either buy more expensive farming equipment,though I don't criticize them for that, or they hoard their excess cash send it east to Florida or the CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE. NO ONE is investing money to build good museums or anything like the Carnegie's or Rockefeller did. IOWA is and always will be just FARMLAND and nothing else.

Don't get me wrong I love Iowa weather but god if only the culture and people could evolve a little bit. The only thing Iowa is stays current with are Cellphones, TVs, Star Bucks, houses, retail stores and restaurants. I mean Jesus Christ you can't build those things any faster in this State. Don't bother with museums, music halls and other stuff that would actually elevate this state to something more than farmland and four letters that get confused with Ohio and Idaho.

It still happens, I think, but mostly when I was around 20. I spent more time with other people back then.

In a bad spot here. Someone I care about is in a really bad position, and I'm worried about her.
One of my favorite online communities is falling to pieces, too.

A very bad person has been allowed to run amok there and has f****d up a lot of things that I really care about, and has shown the intent to harm others by means of extensive blackmail and destroying trust between friends.

I will kill him if I ever meet him.

severely depressed.feel like absolute sht,no one in life cares, they assume am just down because am not able to communicate it across to them, and am not able to show emotions either,it comes out as severe challenging behavior;they blame the autism and ID for everything.
am the only one here at the moment as its a brand new build,waiting for others to move in,weve got a new manager who is changing everything around in this care home without a thought to the impact on self, introducing new rules without transition periods and making a lot of awful assumptions, honestly hate the woman and she knows it-she said today she doesnt care if am seeing here as the wicked witch of the west as she is here to do a job.this isnt a job,its a life-mine. btch.

can understand how exactly feel.
felt exactly the same way when was groomed,bullied and threatened by a regular user here [now banned as a result],it went on for so long ended up sectioned in a intelectual disability hospital for four months.

pyschopaths/people with pyschopathic behaviors shoud not be allowed near public communication platforms like the internet,its a pity theres no way of blocking them all from accessing the net,let them mess themselves up instead of other people.

No one warned me that I would have to figure out lots of important $41+ that no one would warn me about!

I'm so sorry that you feel this way and hope that you are still around. Just know that you aren't alone in this because, more so than I would like to admit, I feel the way as well.

The more I understand, the less I like it.

Still, there's fun to be had.

(The point is moot. I feel a little better now.)

Computers suck. They break down, they malfunction, they complain that there's no storage space when the disk has plenty of space, etc. I hate computers and yet I'm using one right now. How ironic.

I hate doctors! I went to a ENT specialist today because I have had tinnitus since I was a child. I heard that there are now new treatments for it. So, I scheduled an appointment and was told that there is no treatment for it and there most likely will never be one. They still do not know the cause of it so there for are not able to provide any treatment for it. I left very puzzled. Why are they stating on there web site that they have a treatment to manage tinnitus and then the doctor says they do not. I think they will do and say just about anything to take peoples money!

@Deb, do you have that "S" in your avatar ?
If so that's AWESOME! I have an 09 VDB without the S of course.
I collect Jefferson nickels and nickel errors OMM, RPMs, off center.

Sorry for randomness, I'm into coins

I like to collect pennies. I do have some other coins in my collection but the pennies are my favorite, I collect double strikes, off centered, wrong planchet, broadstrikes, anything unusual about a coin, Below are the pennies I search for the most: I have most of them. A couple years ago I had to sell my 1909-S VDB. I hope to buy another one before they get more expensive.

?1909-S VDB (small "S" below the date and "V.D.B." on the back at the bottom between the stems of the wheat ears)
?1909-S
?1914-D
?1922 No "D" (there is no mint mark below the date)
?1931-S
?1943 Bronze/copper (cents in 1943 were made out of zinc plated steel, not copper)
?1943-D Bronze/copper (cents in 1943 were made out of zinc plated steel, not copper)
?1943-S Bronze/copper (cents in 1943 were made out of zinc plated steel, not copper)
?1944 Steel (cents in 1944 were again made out of copper/bronze, some old steel blanks got minted in 1944 by mistake)
?1955/55 (doubled die variety)
