This is growing everywhere here. I thought it was a dandelion but its not very big. Perhaps I'm wrong. The flower is no bigger than the head of a pencil. Is this a different variety of dandelion or something completely different? Thanks in advance.

Perhaps it's a Hieracium.

This is another shot. The flowers have no centers. If you pluck the petals off theres nothing left. Hieracium = Hawkweed? I think you're right. Thanks :)

Wow.. just when I thought for sure it was one thing, now I think its another 0_0 Does this ever get any easier? I really think it is crepis japonica. I found this great youtube video that looks identical to mine. Thanks!

Yes, but you have to be 60 years old (kidding), seriously
experience does help. Patience, and helpers like Eat the Weeds
is the way to go.
