surely if they must have a pet name for it they should go for something more realistic like "my dogs mouth" or what?

Is it not annoying to find post after post that have the subject;
"What's your opinion?"
"What do you think about this?"
"I have a question?"
"Do you know anything about?

Put the subject of your question in the subject field and maybe more people would actually look at your question.

It seems like every once in awhile -- and it just happened -- I see a girl wearing a cute skirt on the street, and I just get the urge to put my hand up it. I've seen some other drunk dude on "COPS" do the same thing at Mardi Gras at least, and get into fistfight with her boyfriend and subsequently arrested. I never give in to the temptation however. Is this normal?

I want to be able to force myself to do things I need to do, even when my motivation is not very high.

Advice? Books you'd recommend, etc?

I don't mean official moderators or people who occasionally redirect or instruct newbies to a forum by advising them of the rules. I'm talking about people who can't seem to refrain from embarrassing, harrassing and critiquing any and every little thing they can find fault with. I know there has to be tons of them out there in cyber space. It seems to me that these people either have way too much time on their hands or some sort of personality disorder. Can somebody who understands the human mind better than I do please explain?

The two jobs I have had in my adult life are kindergarten teacher and cruise ship deckhand. As a teacher I was very clean cut, followed the rules and always nice to parents, teachers and students. However, as a deckhand I cursed constantly, had a regular 5 o'clock shadow, drank (too much) and followed a stereotypical sailor lifestyle. Which was the real me?

Does everyone put on a facade according to where they are and who they are around? Is it possible to combine the two parts of me?

When you have to take a dump it is hard to hold it. I don't live there but spend most nights and evenings there. I hate to stink up the place. There is only one bathroom and she has a teen daughter who always has friends over. I would like to fart too but what if it wakes someone up? Should I just let 'er rip?

Physical trauma leading to depression?

To avoid quibbles about the meaning of words, let me first make the following definitions. 100% Capitalism is an economic system in which all property and means of production are privately owned. 100% Communism is a system in which all property and means of production are owned by no one at all; in other words, they are simply commonly shared. I maintain that neither system is feasible.

Imagine a 100% Capitalist system. Someone owns every stretch of road and every stretch of sidewalk. Every time you enter another "landlord's" stretch of street or sidewalk, you may well have to pay a toll. Is this tenable? Of course not.

And every time you want to take a jog on a running track that currently exists because of park service efforts, you would have to pay something. Your fat friends would be richer than you are.

But if no one owned anything, no one would be motivated to improve the quality of anything. When a street light burns out, who would replace it? No one.

Anybody some advice on how to build self esteem & self confidence. I wouldn't say that I am a depressed person, neither do I suffer from social anxiety...(I have no problem talking to strangers) I would say that I am very self consumed & that I don't believe in myself or in what I say...for instance I always feel a need for a cosigner on my decisions (I like when people agree with me) What I mean is I don't want someone else to make my decision but I need someone to confirm that my decision is the right choice or else I will feel uncomfortable...so I say I think I lack self confidence. I love approval more so then average people I think. Why is it that when music comes on & everybody starts dancing I feel shy & uncomfortable dancing as well (now was I by myself I would go all crazy lol) Strange thing when I go out to a club (which I do) I love to dance & look good (I feel like a Diva lol) am I an oxymoron? I need a book about this any suggestions? I don't want to grow old & turn into the cat lady...
