I’m sitting in an ER with IVs in both arms, being pumped fluids cuz I’m so dehydrated from puking all night. THIS is hell.

Well, there is that.

I used to think this was good, now I'm not so sure.

My wife was bipolar. She killed herself after we were married only a year.

I am so sorry for your loss and her daughter's loss. It's hard to lose a mom, and the MH problems don't help.

Senate Confirms Anti-LGBTQ Gov. Sam Brownback to Ambassadorship | Human Rights Campaign

wordywalt comments on Jan 28, 2018:

Brownback is a morally bankrupt political and religious demagogue who took Kansas back 70 years and left the state virtually bankrupt. He has no place in ANY public office!

Is this the smartest thing Trump has ever said?

gater comments on Jan 20, 2018:

Trump is a brilliant man, those that don't agree are clearly not aware.

@gater why do I feel like I need another shower after reading your comments?

You always hear that age old question...”what is the meaning of life?

HippieChick58 comments on Jan 28, 2018:

I think life is more than just sex. As I remember sex was pretty good, but so is music, food, and children/family, and art, and so many other things. Sex is pretty basic and we've evolved. Life is making a difference, and being connected.

@Shelton I live in a conservative area and I'm selective about who I am going to date much less go any further with. Lets just say it's been a while.

I lived in Kansas from 1999 to 2005. I am so glad I got out of there before he screwed everything up. My kids are glad too. I mean, we didn't go far distance or ideology wise (Nebraska) but Brownback just screwed the whole state up.

How many folks here know who this is, and/or remember his presidency?

David1955 comments on Jan 28, 2018:

Did the poster seriously think that people wouldn't at least remember JFK if for no other reason than the recurring issue of the assassination? I'm sure not. As for personally remembering him, well that is a generation related question. I was 8 in 1963. I remember the shock of that time, generally ...

HippieChick58 replies on Jan 28, 2018:

Being the OP, and I'm being dead serious, I've met folks who ask "who?' when JFK is mentioned. We're not good with history in the US. Also I was just looking to get conversation going, that is what this site is about. And it's been a good conversation, I'm glad to have posted it. Did that answer your question?

I used to keep a towel or towels close to the bed. I'm just practical that way and I hate sleeping in a wet spot.

JackPedigo comments on Jan 28, 2018:

We have the term fore-play but how about after-play?

HippieChick58 replies on Jan 28, 2018:

Back to the original question what to call the after play, I used to think of it as afterglow. Waiting for the heart rate to drop back to where it belongs and the breathing to return to normal. At least I think that is what I remember.

Gender bias & agnosticism

stinkeye_a comments on Jan 28, 2018:

Those are some BIG leaps. 1. The "purpose" of this site is not solely dating. I, for one, am "here for community." 2. Forum discussions (even in a dating-oriented environment!) do not solely serve the purpose of attracting potential matches, like some sort of Discovery Channel mating display....

Which high rate atheist state/country would you love to move to?

HippieChick58 comments on Jan 28, 2018:

Interestingly Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine have high rates of atheism in the US, followed by Alaska, Washington, and Oregon. I've lived in Washington state, loved it there but the high cost of living and the lack of sunshine were hard.

HippieChick58 replies on Jan 28, 2018:

@MichaelSpinler Western Washington has mild winters most of the time. Now the Northeast states, it's bad enough where I live.

wordywalt comments on Jan 28, 2018:

I was in West Berlin when he became president, and there when he gave his famous "Ich bin ein Berliner" speech. The Berliners loved him. I also remember the exact moment when I heard of his assassination.

HippieChick58 replies on Jan 28, 2018:

I was in Kindergarten when he was assassinated. The principal came into the classroom. He was crying when he told us. We really had no idea what that meant, but grownups were crying and that terrified us!
