It's cold where I live now...

[Uncle Sick]

Heck, they declared state of emergency in Maine www.maine.gov/tools/whatsnew/index.php?topic=Portal+News&id=1269&v=Article two days ago.
-19 degrees Celsisus last time I checked.

Pipes in our house were all frozen up earlier this morning - neighbor fixed it and I've just returned from a celebratory crap.
I need to have my car idle for a good 15 minutes every morning before I leave for work otherwise my freaking hands will stick to the steering wheel.

Anyone else freezing to death?

It's true we don't know what "really" cold is in the UK.
I remember watching some footage from Stateside, a guy threw a glass of water in the air. Before the water started falling it had formed into tiny ice crystals.


*reminds self not to pee outside in very cold weather*

 

[Deadmanwalking]

No, lucky bastard

Ok maybe -15 is a bit over the top, but a nice -5 would do.

Hehe... I still wear shorts when I go outside for a five minute smoke.

My nutsack is chiming like Santa's sled bells when I go upstairs again, though. Scared a racoon on our porch to death last night.

Where the hell do you live ?

gah wish i could be in all the snow and ice... its fuckin sunny here where everywhere else is blitzing it down with snow

/edit

i think the website in his first post gives that away L

 

[Uncle Sick]

Where the hell do you live ?

Arse-end of space (admittedly, the area is quite beautiful).

Lake Region, Maine/Oz/Land of the Freedom Fries.. halfway between Lewiston and Portland (a one hour drive in good weather, 3-4 in a blizzard) to be more exact. And - no - I am not a fcking yankee.

I went out by the sea today. Got a tan, drank a few ice cold teas.

Another lazy day by the beach.

Cold? What is the meaning of this.....cold?

Not surprising when you're sitting on top of the fekking mountain that is your sig.

Well im jealous, i want to live somewere that you get to see all the seasons every year. Not like UK when it just pisses it down all the time :/

*cowers* I know, I know... and if I come up with something witty I shall change it again.

We have a mountain right in front of our house basically - Mount Washington. They really are not very imaginative with names here... Oxford is 20 minutes away, Denmark and Norway about 15 minutes etc. etc.

Oh, btw - here is your mountain (Washington, ja!).

The only perk, whilst living in Qatar.

 

[Munkey]

he has a point you know

 

[Jonaldo]

I hate the cold.

Roll on April in my opinion.

 

[Scouse]

I've got a theory that films with snow in tend to be much better on average than films without.


It's the same with games for me - it's no coincidence that the best tribes, tribes2, Call of Duty, <insertwhatevergameyoueverplayedeverhere> maps all have snow in 'em


Or is it just me?

There is no such thing as "cold", only inappropriate clothing.

It was -5 here today, which with our rather considerable windchill works out somewhere between -10 and -13.

Yay for the North Atlantic gales!

*snuggles up to keep tw0g warm and comfy*

Oh... happened earlier when I went to buy some food for the weekend at the local, tiny, overprized (no such thing as fixed prizes for anything here) foodstore - anyway - it's so farking cold that the liquid in their sprinkler system froze and the fire alarm went off.

Resulted in a little panic and the local fire department, sheriff etc. heading there at top speed.

 

[mr.Blacky]

Why the land of the freedom fries? why not move south. I wouldn't mind going there on holiday but living? Way too cold

 

[RandomBastard]

If it was that cold here id just invest in a snowboard as an alternative mode of transport to walking.

 

[Uncle Sick]

why not move south

There be dragons!!1

 

[tRoG]

Why not be a real man, and buy a jacket?

 

[Darthshearer]

Pfffft Cold Cold I tell the man! You wanna gan with the Toon to Valaranga man!
