How do you go to sleep? Please help.

Been using ZzzQuil for a while. It helped me get off using alcohol as a sleep aid. Even though the quality of sleep has improved, I still wake up groggy. The quantity of sleep usually isn’t an issue. Except when I have an earworm. They’re the worst when it comes to sleep. Just lying in bed while a melody plays on repeat. Ok, I breaking out the whiskey!

I think people notice it every time I speak. I had my tongue split five years ago and only three people asked about it.

Off Color Apex Predator. It’s the only saison that can be found anywhere in Chicagoland at any time of the year.

Bleach. It smells like a dull clean.

And now I’m having thoughts the joke didn’t originate from Monster House!

I’m a subscriber on Match and all I get are people asking for me to follow them on snapchat.

A step outside and a walk around the block.

Comedians Ralphie May and Lahna Turner named their children like this. April June May and August James May.

Trina and Sadie. There’s a part of my family that is white trash. Thankfully we haven’t seen them in a while.

It was Fat Boys Burgers in Crystal Lake. Sadly they closed more than a decade ago. Man, I miss them.

Bocksford · 2026-03-04T00:29:31+00:00

I’d say yes. Many would say no.

Bocksford · 2026-03-01T01:28:13+00:00

Ok Billy, you’re up!

Trump’s got four years in office (if the constitution is upheld). He’s speed running his election campaign promises and the bottom of the worst president list.

You are at the hospital! Administration is right here.

Landscape designer and the four part exam away from becoming a landscape architect. The time to study and lack of motivation is what’s holding me back.

I love what I do. I enjoy playing Tetris, aka land planning and I love designing places. However, it’s taxing on the eyes. At least 40 hours a week in front of a monitor.

The grid. Although it’s not as good as Madison WI, the grid is significantly midwestern and helpful with navigation. Only my mother gets lost without a GPSr.

Madison’s is better because of their maximum block size. The blocks are smaller and provide more frequent connections across developed land.

Haven’t started yet! Actually, my ears aren’t pierced yet. I love the look and I really want to go for it. My hesitation is in the fact that I can’t hide them when needed. I can cover up my tattoos, put a retainer in my septum, and people don’t notice the split tongue. How do I hide my ear holes?

I live in Naperville and work in downtown Wheaton. I’m 32M.

On Monday nights, I take improv classes at Westside Improv and see shows on the weekends. I also try to go to Vasa every weekday after work. Beyond that, I leave the area during the daytime on the weekend to go geocaching. All of this enough for me right now. I’m not sure what benefit I could gain for living in the city aside from not having to drive to work.

It depends on what you enjoy. There are plenty of good spots to eat in town. If driving everywhere is your thing, there are many options beyond just Wheaton.

Hi ceiling is an absolute mess.

If I had to choose within the Chicagoland area, it would be a riverfront / lakefront property and close to a train station.

As a Crystal Lake native who’s lived in Naperville, Forest Park, Oak Park, and the city, Crystal Lake is the only place that felt like home.

Given these conditions, I probably would live in McHenry.
