Oh man, 4 months of snow and that's it? That's awesome!

You guys in the Gulf Stream area are lucky. If you think 4 months of snow is bad, you've not expieranced true terror.

Additionaly, those who have never even seen snow in real life..well, it's certainly an expierance. I fully support you never expierance it.

[Asta Kask]

You're welcome to move here. I may even buy you a beer.

[LaZodiac]

Unfortunately, I cannot. As much as I hate the weather here, I do like living in Canada. Thanks for the offer though

[AtlanteanTroll]

You're all nuts for hating the snow. While I would never want more then 3 months, it's nice to have around that much.

The most snow we have ever gotten here (in my lifetime) was just barely enough to make a footprint out of grass and have a snowball fight.

It actually was 5 months of continual snow last winter, but meh, could have been worse. I wasn't the one to complain, as least.

And I think that unless you've experienced snow, you've never lived a complete and fullfilled life. Plus my comment about white Christmases.

I have a hard time believing that Sweden can possibly be any less awesome than Canada. The whole notion is simply off the charts.

You probably live further North than I do... I live in Gothenburg, so four months is really unusual.

[Gwyn chan 'r Gwyll]

Toronto is the most snow-fail-tastic part of Canada. I wish we got more snow. So far, we've gotten maybe 10 minutes of snow, which isn't enough to actually do anything. And it looks like we're not getting any snow until January, at which point we're getting a HUUUUUGE amount of snow. Well, huge for Toronto, anyways.

No, no, see, he's probably your neighbor. He just has a poor sense of time.

No snow yet here in the American Midwest. East Coast has got some snow though, and I'm sure I'll see some when I head up to Minnesota.

[Asta Kask]

Northern parts of Sweden has gotten snow, but nary a snowflake here in the south.

Neighbor man. Neighbor. Weren't you talking about last year?

[Teddy]

True. Sweden's fourth metropolis here (I think, I'm not quite sure if we've passed 200'000 yet). Although, that may change in a year or so... as in, the metropolisity, not my location )

No, no, see, he's probably your neighbor. He just has a poor sense of time.

Last time I counted, mid November to mid April was 5 months. And only because the USA is huge in all directions doesn't mean that other countries can't be large in any. If you'd put a hinge on the southernmost tip of Sweden and tip the whole country around, the northernmost tip would suddenly end up in Italy.

And even though we both live in the southern half, it would take about 4 hours* by express train to get to the other's location (unless I'm wrong).

*this assumes that there hasn't been any snowfall within the latest month.

They're both less awesome than Wisconsin, though*

ION: Ugh. I got back from a church lock-in. Very fun. We played midnight laser tag and many hours of video games. And also feasted on pizza and Mountain Dew. Then when I got home I slept for six hours. And I still have to do all my homework.

*The following is based on assumption. I have never been to Sweden, and the only time I've ever been to Canada was for a few hours while on a trip to Michigan's Northern Peninsula.

Lock-in? They lock you in the church and force you to play a brutal fleshmelting lastertag? And then play Mario Party???(this post is a really bad joke that should be ignored)

Uppsala? Isn't that basically a big suburb to Stockholm?

I wasn't implying anything about the size of Sweden, just that you were a silly person.

That's what you get for being the center of the world Gwyn

Yep. If there's an inch of snow the entire railway system breaks down completely.

*waves happily and trips, falling into a bottomless pit*

Yup.

And by "video games" I meant "nothing but COD". I wish we could play something else like Mario Party, but the people at my church have no taste in video games.

[Teddy]

Uppsala? Isn't that basically a big suburb to Stockholm?

Yes, and no. A suburb kind of implies easy communication, and if you listen to the commuters, that's definitely not the case most of the time (given, they're a loud and whiny lot (okay not all of them, but the loud ones are pretty whiny)).

I'm a silly person?

Yeah, it sucks living in the best city in the world.

[Tragic_Comedian]

Yeah, it sucks living in the best city in the world.

I'd imagine even the best city in the world wouldn't be much compared to a part of the world that isn't a city. But what do I know?

[Mutant Sheep]

Yup.

What's wrong with CoD? Sure, its not Gears of War (chainsawing people in the face>stabbing someone in the foot and then they die) but its better than just about every Wii game that has come out ever.

[AtlanteanTroll]

I'm a silly person?

My perspective on life may be a tad bit flawed.

[Mutant Sheep]

Teddy, you're a very silly person. And by silly, I mean normtasicular.

There is so much wrong with this, I don't know what to say.

Want a Cyanide capsule? I have at least 12.

Well every Wii game that wasnt a near-launch title. Or Kirby. Or Mario. Or some of the really good smaller titles. But so many Wii games are ... really bad.

And how does having a throwing knife hit you in the toe make you fall over dead?

[AtlanteanTroll]

Well every Wii game that wasnt a near-launch title. Or Kirby. Or Mario. Or some of the really good smaller titles.

Or Sonic. Or Legend of Zelda. Or a lot of things.
