Don't have a problem with suburbs or citylife. Both have advantages. Both have negatives. Of course, in Colorado, you don't have to really worry about much.

I grew up a LOT over one summer in high-school and got insanely thin, so I was hassled a couple of times by older kids because I... well I looked almost like DJ Qualls.
I live in a city of 200,000 people and large cities freak me out... I like visiting them, though, mainly because of stuff smaller cities don't have and because I know I'll be leaving soon. On those terms, I actually love getting lost in the crowd for a time, it's a good change of scenery.
I'm a pretty big guy now so I've never been afraid to go anywhere and have never been harassed or attacked. I do obsessively keep track of all the stuff I have on me at all times when out or traveling, out of habit.
My comfort level in city has a lot to do with my company. If I'm alone, I'm fine. If I'm with friends, I'm slightly on guard. If I'm with my girlfriend, I'm more cautious. If I'm with my girlfriend and her daughter, I'm analyzing the quickest way to kill everyone within a hundred feet of us.
Is.. is that real? TBA, seriously?
The 'burbs really creep me out. And I'm course reminded of Joe Dante's hilarious Tom Hanks 1989 comedy that's one of my favorites.
People praise EMTs/Paramedics for the things they do. Little do they know that we're mostly taxi drivers for the crazy people/drunks a good amount of the time.
-OCD Lady having trouble breathing
-Shedfire
-Femur fracture (legit)
-Guy trying to get out of Police trouble by faking stomach pain. Claimed he would faint on the way to the hospital, tore off his nasal cannula, and cussed at everyone but me. I'll remain thankful for that.
2:07 AM. What a night... I'm not really complaining as it's all been pretty entertaining for my weirdself, I'm just complaining that it's time to get up in 4 hours for the other job.
I never win contests. I should win more contests.
Like this lady?
I wouldn't mind that certain people always seem to win contests if I was one of the certain people. I would be totally cool with that.
I entered the PCH contest where you can win $5,000 every week for the rest of your life.
I will alert you upon my triumph.
I always do those rotten online customer service surveys. "Tell us about your experience at Home Depot!" "I found everything okay. Now give me $2,000 bucks."
It is a startlingly ineffective way to raise home improvement funds.
Wait, do I actually have the highest rep point here? Or is there someone else?
Hmm, that is surprisingly easy to check.

Snap. At least I don't have the highest post count, like I did on RT at one point.
There's a man at work-- the boss of my boss, and the CFO of the company-- and I needed a document from him, which is always tricky business.
I knew his office was a mess, but I was asking for a very important tax document-- something that is a major part of his job. He pulls open a drawer in a very large filing cabinet, and the drawer is filled to the brim with loose paper. It's not stacked, it's not in folders, it's not even paperclipped together. It's just... paper. A nightmare of paper.
He found the document, but I'm having heart palpitations just thinking about it.
I love the suburbs. That's the #1 reason why I can't wait to move to LA, despite my anxieties. I'm fucking sick of rural life.
#33 in posts, and #59 in rep. Got a long way to go.
6th in posts, 5th in rep.
