Enjoying the Snow?

I'm not! I can't watch TV or play Rock Band or Xbox cos
it's just so damn cold in my conservatory living room! :(

I could use this to go outside and embrace the cold and
throw a snowballs at a peoples face, hehe. But I got no one
to go out with! If I do it to strangers they might do a
chase on me!

Anyone else living in Brighton and doesn't have a snowball
partner, contact me via 075... Oh wait, maybe just reply to
this thread.

Everyone else, how are you enjoying the snow? :)

Someone threw a snowball at my window last night and it
really made me jump! I thought it was The Terrorists at
first, then looked out of the window and it was just the
friendly Chineses next door. They're not threatening, they
are adorable! Any snow-Chinese related stories welcomed in
this thread.

haha, the terrorists
>:( <---- grim looking terrorist
i have a cold chinastory for this thread:
chinamen in my town (or i believe chermans of chinese
heritage is the politically correct terminus) ehm on new
years eve a few men of the chinese restaurant nearby
launched fireworks at their own restaurant´s windows and
their wives or relatives inside were waving and yelling at
them. was well funny^^

today i re-isolated a couple of my windowsills with
silicone, to save a little heating.
that stuff stinks really nasty.

anyhow, just go out and have fun sliding and stomping!
you might meet someone new or old who enjoys the snow
aswell. im preparing for a walk too.

Hey man, I am comfy and fairly warm, have been reading a
book about radical feminism today and one about domestic
abuse too and playing Peggle and watching Curb You
Enthusiasm. :)

That story about Chineses is well funny! :D Some Eastern
people have a very different sense of humour to Westerners,
I reckon. I bet that poor family really did think The
Terrorists were attacking! Reminds me of the fireworks scene
in Visitor Q. :)

Yeah, I heard someone bought some tape to seal their windows
for £4. How much was the silicone? Sorry to hear your room
stinks! My housemate wanted the heating on aaaaaall night,
but I said no, cos it was unnecessary and would be too
expensive. I did mention the heat being lost through
windows, too. Silly Zakir...

Yeah, I might go out tomorrow if the snow is still there do
some slidin' and stompin'! :D

How did your walk go? I felt like doing one, but it looks
soooo cold!

peggles is a funny game!
havent been given it a shot recently.
good to hear youre warm.

i saw visitorq but have absolutely no memory of it!

dunno how much silicone is, had it lying around.
it was past the date, so i slit open the package
and cut pieces out. it was still a little fluid inside
and that stank horribly, but i guess it always does.

snow was wonderful! had a chill walk with some saw2
on the ears and went into the woods/park, watched the deer
eat and stretch and caress each other with distant childrens
laughter etc..
i was pretty cold in the face after about 30 mins.
so if you have a scarf dont be too macho to leave it at
home
^^

I envy you. I'm on the east coast of Canada and we still
haven't gotten any decent snow. A couple of little sissy
snows but nothing worth shoveling. It's creepy.

Ophecks, shit, really? I thought it snowed all the time in
Canada! :(

I'm sure you'll get some soon, mate.

Advocate, whatta you mean by this? It is snowing quite a lot
here, whatta you want? My uni was closed, I couldn't even
read my radical feminism book; missed out on the chapter I
wanted to read about African genital mutilation and
EVERYTHING! :'(

I was thinking about you today. Was gonna dedicate a thread
to you, asking if the snow has brought out your awareness of
the lighter side of life.

Apparently not. :(

Wow, were there really deer having sex? :O Sounds idyllic,
lulz.

Yeah, I like it when your face gets cold. Victorians used to
have cold baths and put sheets soaked in cold water on
themselves to stimulate blood flow. I think it makes people
look healthier and happier when their faces are red from
being out in the snow. :) Or if sometimes their red noses
make them look like alcoholics. :(

I went to the bank today to deposit a cheque, but when I got
there it was closed! :'( And the walk back made my hands
really cold. Did you get out today and how is the silicone
holding up?

they were not having sex, no!^^
just necking around. of course i would have been discreet
and left if it was going somewhere.

as stimulating the cold may be it does not improve
your appearance when your nose is consantly running
so thin fluid that you couldnt even keep it in..

stayed inside this afternoon and played starcraft2.
silicone is doing just fine, smells gone, but the window-
frames are shit aswell so i dont know if its brought much
effect.

couldnt you just throw the cheque into the letterbox?

I struggled into work the last couple of days, yesterday
involving a near 3 hour trek via bus and DLR going in, to
say nothing of coming back, but today I said "No more!" and
worked from home (and I did actually work from
home).

Now I am tired and lonely and begging you, or indeed anyone,
for sex.

what's so hard to understand? it's quite pathetic your
country can't cope with a bit o' snow.

its even more ridiculous in germany,
while bavaria and southern germany do excellent,
the rest of us is helpless like a baby when the temperature
drops a little beyond the usual.
roads are mostly cleaned but still theres lots of chaos,
especially with public transportation.
