So...

I would give anything to be able to experience that. Then again, that's just about what would actually happen. I will admit that no matter how difficult it is to find one's way home in it, I still get deep satisfaction and enjoyment from a really, really good storm. There's nothing quite like sitting near a window in the summertime, watching a thunderstorm with the lights off.

We'res upposed to have a blizzard from like midnight tonight all day tomorrow. Everyone I know is banking on snow day, but I'm betting the irony gods won't let that happen.

dude, be careful what you wish for.

We had this MASSIVE strom blast through Montreal this summer, and MAN, it was freaky.

I looked out the window to see what looked like a waterfall. That and the thunder was deafening. We lost power for 3. FREAKIN. DAYS. Not fun.

Weather guys are saying Portland, Oregon (specifically the valley floor) could have close to a half a foot of snow by Christmas day! WOW! That's a lotsa snow for this area...

Half a foot? That's just a dusting around here 😊

Hell I had to brush 4 inches off my car two days ago. Just another morning. Ha ha.

Well, normally our school adds days lost to snow onto the end of the year.
But seeing as this is my senior year, and I therefore get out 10 days early, I won't have them added on. Thus I feel like I need as many snow days to revel in as possible.

The flash of the lightning woke me up�it was so bright it hurt my eyes even while I slept with them shut, and then it was like a bomb went off near my house. Then it happened again. And then a ton of fucking snow! Go Seattle.

For the "valley floor" as they call most of Washington County ... of Oregon... that's a LOT of snow (and a good bit of the valley floor also includes Portland City limits).

Eh... we'll see what actually falls. 😊

Yeah, it's never the amount they say it is. :shakeno: We're supposed to be getting three to six inches of snow on Friday. Southeastern New York is renowned for its inability to decide on how much snow it will actually receive.

Holy Crap! Maybe you were right Aegix. I was figuring, like, a foot or so of snow, not a raging storm that's closed down everythign from Milwaukee to Waukesha.

We're not allowed to have subtle nudity in our avatars, are we…? =[

Go for it. If you get banned, you can't say you didn't see it coming. 😛

In other news, from that huge storm over the Midwest, we got a whole half inch of slush, then a half a day's worth of rain. Freaking 33�F weather.

MD: I doubt it. If anything, they'll tell you to change it. I had that one avatar, and no one cared.

Everyone else talking about the storm: They have been saying we are gonna get ours, but nothing. In fact, it was almost 60� today -.-

I wanna get a massive snow storm. I like the sense of chaos it causes.

Just got in to Ottawa tonight. Going to the Senators game tomorrow night with 3 of my good friends. It's going to be a fun weekend!

Living in the Midwest, I actually was caught in that storm. Over the course of 12 hours it snowed a foot and a half to two feet. It was freakin' sweet.
Sitting by the window was like living in a snowglobe.

We had to drive through the storm to get up to Ottawa. It was crazy but we took our time and we made it here later than we were hoping but hey - we are safe.

Hehe, hearing about all this horrible winter weather makes me glad I'm in Texas for the holidays. Also leads me to questioning my sanity for deciding to live in Minnesota. Seriously, why on Earth did I decide to pass up on this beautiful weather?

Blizzards are coming here too. So much cold weather this year. Just goes to show what Global Warming can do to a planet. 😊

Alright! My brothers godmother just gave him a Wii Points card for Christmas. Its World of Goo tonight!

Plus that means if I get one later from my parents, my Mega Man 9 vs. WoG dilemma has been resolved.

This topic hasn't been posted in for one whole day. Tome to revive it with some purely mindless topic.

I think Metroid II is the best Metroid game. *waits to be destroyed by Metroid fans*

Yeah, you come up here to Alaska where it hasn't even hit -20F AT ALL this year. Global cooling my ass. Usually by Halloween it's easily -40F to -60F. Kind of weird all of you down south have the cold weather this year, and it's warm as hell up here (relatively).:eyebrow:

"hell" can be used to describe anything, really.

Today was hot as hell.

I'm cold as hell.

Shit was tight as hell.

That dude is sexy as hell.

etc. etc. hell

At any rate, I think Dante had just a tiny bit of creative license in his description of hell, seeing as how he was the first person to really describe it.

• Metroid ll: Return of Samus Music-SR388.
• The Physics were ... interesting enough to keep playing. They felt solid, in the sense that you always knew exactly what your movements would result in. A strange bullet in the list, certainly, but I feel it's warranted. Physics are a very important part of any game, obviously.
