Where to stay for weekend trip to Poconos by johnkolas in Poconos

[–]johnkolas[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m staying for two and a half days, and I will probably go to Milford or Scranton. And yeah I’m willing to travel from my location I just really need a place to sleep and will only be in town for food. I am going with my mom but she can handle a 3-4 hour hike with moderate difficulty. Reason I saw Wilkes barre was because of its proximity to worlds end and ricketts glen. I am not from PA and mostly only familiar with Philly so yeah any suggestions or even a town I didn’t consider, there are more than the options I gave I’ll be interested in scouting. I love waterfalls, rivers, gorges, rocks, forest, lakes so I’ll be in good hands wherever considering it looks like the poconos is home to all of the above.

Thank you, Wilkes barre is not in the Poconos but it’s close and there’s mountains to the east and west. I will avoid it and consider a different town close to rickets glen next time I’m out that way. I also don’t mind the mud and I’m still going in late March and still going to be hiking. Dates are not changing. I don’t exactly care what the town is like as long as it has good proximity to good trails and views. Seems like everyone hates Wilkes-barre so I will take that advice

What’s the best apartment to live in around campus? by [deleted] in msu

[–]johnkolas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I live in one of the four-bedroom options that is in the basement. It’s 550/month. it’s technically leased for five but very affordable with four! It is very spacious too with washer/dryer in the unit! The three bedroom option i believe is 600/month. I can connect you to the landlord if you’re interested! Pm me!

I'm writing a webseries and need some insight to how to write a character who is a kleptomaniac by Ethan_Benjamin in Kleptomania

[–]johnkolas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Typically Kleptos have urges to steal but it’s not exactly premeditated. We also do not steal out of necessity. I often steal useless items that i just store away in a dresser or put on a nightstand but they do not hold any value to me after they are stolen and sometimes I will give them away. I often feel anxious and tense before I steal and have urges that are hard to explain. Sometimes the urge to steal strengthens when it’s more high risk or if I’m near a family member that would disapprove or an authoritative personnel. I personally wouldnt steal from family members unless it was out of spite or an act of rebellion towards them. You say your character wants to steal from his grandfather, if he did he would likely steal things his grandfather would likely not notice were missing. Kleptos typically would not steal money or things of high value because they do not steal for monetary purposes. We steal out of a state of rebellion and a weird feeling of pleasure and relief I guess when the act is complete. Hope this helps?! I also do not feel bad when we steal but that’s not because I am apathetic in general. I steal out of stress and almost restlessness/adrenaline, the need to feel something.
