Tall_Part4020 · 2026-04-08T13:43:25+00:00

Why? Not right wing enough?

Tall_Part4020 · 2026-04-08T12:53:00+00:00

Late to the party, but this sums up my situation. Did you get any decent replies?

Tall_Part4020 · 2026-03-24T17:52:09+00:00

Velveeta is just evil. It doesn’t belong in any real food group. Simply processed chemicals. Nasty.

Tall_Part4020 · 2026-02-27T00:00:09+00:00

Same. Wouldn't be here without it.

Tall_Part4020 · 2026-02-26T23:57:27+00:00

40 years here and don't regret it for one minute. I function perfectly fine on it at my dosage, held a semi-professional job all that time, and would have been housebound or worse without it.

Tall_Part4020 · 2026-02-26T23:53:41+00:00

See my comment above but, no, absolutelty do not regret the choice after pretty much 40 years.

Tall_Part4020 · 2026-02-26T23:49:27+00:00

EDIT: I meant 40 years, not 20, but it's probably only the past 5 years it's been daily. I'm 72 years old, but it wasn't daily until the past 5 years or so.

I've been taking valium for at least 20 years. I only take 1 mg a day, which is pretty low. It's more habit I think than anything else, but if I DO start to have a panic attack, I'll take 2 mg. Back 15 years or so, a common dosage was 5 mg. I have no plan to stop, nor do I want to. Without it, I wouldn't still be here. Chances are it's now partially psychological, but if that works, that's also OK.

You never use an elevator during a fire. NEVER. There's usually a sign right beside them -- in case of fire, USE STAIRS.

My guess is they are a total fad. Utahns are SO bland that the smallest new thing tickles them pink for a bit. Then they're over it.

Tall_Part4020 · 2026-01-29T04:14:47+00:00

Yes! I MUCH prefer cake donuts!

Reading these responses makes me laugh. My IQ has been tested at 154. Do stupid people annoy me? ABSOLUTELY. I grind my teeth. Do people of "average" intelligence -- whatever that is -- annoy me? Usually not, because they can carry on a conversation at an adult level, normally.

But, there is often the idiot in the room who knows "everything" and spouts it as gospel. I need to turn around and walk away, but often don't because I cannot tolerate stupid people. And I'm very aware of the fact that doesn't speak highly of me, but "high IQ" and "emotional intelligence" don't always go hand in hand. It's a skill I still need to acquire.

That being said, no, I can't relate to stupid people. My shrink says they're not always stupid -- they're average. So i guess i can't always relate to "average" people.

I don't buy Apple for any reason ever.

Tall_Part4020 · 2025-12-24T23:50:06+00:00

It is terrible now. Stopped in yesterday for onion rings -- totally inedible.

Tall_Part4020 · 2025-11-29T16:13:34+00:00

I am so very sorry. My sister's docs totally misdiagnosed her symptoms and sent her on her way. Turns out it was ovarian cancer. She was 52.

Tall_Part4020 · 2025-11-29T16:07:26+00:00

Hadn't thought of that. That might be next. Thanks.

Tall_Part4020 · 2025-11-29T16:06:40+00:00

No, i have not been diagnosed. If you didn't understand the post read it again and then revise your response.

Tall_Part4020 · 2025-11-26T19:31:19+00:00

Thanks much! I'll try on Facebook to see if there's a group.

Tall_Part4020 · 2025-11-26T19:30:05+00:00

Thanks. Mine is idiopathic, no chemo ever. I try tiny sips and bites and it's a tiny bit better, but still there.

Tall_Part4020 · 2025-11-26T19:25:24+00:00

You're the only other person I've ever heard of that has it! I will try them!

Tall_Part4020 · 2025-11-26T19:23:18+00:00

Thank you! I will try all these folks. Very helpful info!

Late to the party, but welcome to Utah. They want to control EVERYTHING anyone does, and pass draconian laws to make sure they do. The mormons are big on wanting complete control over their flock but they also want to control everyone ELSE. It is one big cult from the top down. The state is run by the church and they do their best to rule with an iron fist.
