As summer dwindles down...

[Lady Mylia]

...who has actually done something productive? Worthwhile? Anyone?

Let's see, I've gone to Island of Adventures, and I'm going to the beach next week, I've gotten up gone running, dribbling the soccer ball, swimming, sunbathing, slept most of it away... and work... anyone have any exciting summer plans?

[Vega Van-Derveld]

... I'm going to see Charlies Angels on Friday, if that counts ^_^;

:lol I will just be reading, watching movies, playing laser tag and trying to get a job (:x)

[Tujk]

Dwindles down? I get stuck in a time warp here or something? Summer's just starting, barely begun even!

[Alpha]

I've gone to four countries for summer. :) But that's it for now. :D Still got half the summer left.

[Christian Lightheart]

5 weeks of Thermodynamics... lessee... that is about... 20+ hours a week including lecture, tests, and homework. Thaknfully, that is over with!

Part time job, averaging 20-30 hours a week.

Washed the superprix, as I call it yesterday and cleaned out my grand prix. Washed some windows, played halo, LANed, went to a few movies, and a few people's houses. Having a party tomorrow after workage. ^_^

Thing to look forward to: Orientation at SUNY Binghamton, hopefully a trip to Darien Lake *or to Cedar Point.. really wanna go there* Trip up to the Caresoul Mall in Syracuse, maybe a trip to Canada with some friends... a Baltimore Oriole's game with my dad and brother... That's about it.

[Morgan Evanar]

I'm taking college courses and working. Its just hotter this time of year.

Neato! :D

I'm...doing what I usually do. Right now, I'm going to clean and organize my closet. Saturday I have a job interview at American Eagle Outfitters ^_^;

[Ishan Shade]

Working midnights at a hopsital....oh...the fun.

[imported_Grev Drasen]

Been trying to get in 40+ hours a week at work, and then come home to rot away at the computer.

[Lady Mylia]

I just saw Charley's Angels for the second time, today... it's really good. I like girls kicking <smallfont color={hovercolor}>-Censored-</smallfont>. LoL~ A lot of your summer's sounds great! Four countries, holy poop! I've only been out of US twice and that was to the Bahamas... sounds like fun Jacali! Enjoy! and everyone... good luck with your job hunting! I know what a pain it can be!

[Marcus Telcontar]

ITS WINTER HERE YOU INSENSITIVE CLODS!

[Dae Jinn]

It's still warm there, you silly ranger man! :spanks Mark :p

[Marcus Telcontar]

You call 10C warm?!?! No, 30C is warm! 47C is stinking hot.

[Lady Mylia]

it's around 90F here, I'm sorry... how's winter going for you, Marcus?

[Dae Jinn]

I do live in Canada :rolleyes

We call 25 C hot! :p

[Marcus Telcontar]

25C is just mildy warm :p

winter is so far wet and warmish, not actually cold. There's been no -C days yet.

[Dae Jinn]

PFFTTTTT!

I wanna see Mark in a nice Canadian Winter, with 3' snow banks :mischief

[Marcus Telcontar]

As long as i get a nice warm rally car to slide sideways between said banks, I'll be okay.

[Dae Jinn]

You'll get a pair of boots, a winter coat and a toque like everyone else! :p

[Marcus Telcontar]

A.... what?

[Dae Jinn]

I exlained it to you on the phone :lol

Toque = winter knit hat :) Usually with a pom-pom on the top :lol

[Alpha]

I'm w/ Mark on this...What is this you're mentioning, Dae? :)

[Dae Jinn]

o_O

http://www.buckmans-creek.com/cricket/images/cable.toque.jpg

That is an example of a toque. :)

[Alpha]

Stupid me. My comp is slow, and that meant I didn't notice your post right above mine...Sorry Dae Dae. lol.

[Dae Jinn]

It's fine. I guess 'toque" is just a canadian word -- a few people besides you have asked what it is :) So no worries.

[Marcus Telcontar]

riiiiiiiiiight

[Dae Jinn]

*stick a toque on Marks head and slaps him on the bum*

Yeah, I am right :D Glad you agree!

[Marcus Telcontar]

Is this some sort of Canadian kink?????

[Dae Jinn]

No :uhoh

But I do think you'd look cute in a toque :lol You could be like, a rapper...lmao!

[Alpha]

:lol that'd be a bit funny to watch! :D

[Lady Mylia]

Wow, LoL~ this place is very good at topic switching! We call those hats "beanies" here... even though we might get a chance to wear them...once a year?

[Marcus Telcontar]

Topic switching? It's called thread hijacking. You have some absolute Masters of the Hijack here. We're so good that there is even a special catagory for our best Hi-jacks - thread wreck. This is where the hijackers so completely and utterly destroy a thread, there is no redeeming it. A genuine thread wreck is a sight to behold and DEFINATLY not normally suitable of children, plus funny enough to rupture spleens.

[Dae Jinn]

And it usually involves Marcus getting naked, a hose and gallons of whipped cream.

:mischief *shakes up a can of whipped cream*

[Marcus Telcontar]

Does not! Navaria started the last thread wreck!

.....

Okay, she might of started it, but I definatly made it go straight to thread hell

[Dae Jinn]

Nav rarely starts thread wrecks, my dear Mr Elessar, whereas you've been involved in nearly all of them.

*pops the cap off the whipped cream can and sprays Mark all with it* :D

[Marcus Telcontar]

Hey, there's only been three authentic and signed thread wrecks. I have not started any of them!

[Dae Jinn]

But....you're a bad influence! :mischief

*spray spray spray*


You've corrupted me, I used to be a perfect little :angel

[Marcus Telcontar]

*coughBULLSHITcough *

:p

[Bryher Conway]

:mad


I'm not a bad girl....really....:mischief *continues to cover Marcus in whipped cream*

[Marcus Telcontar]

I'm trying my best here ont to decend into smut :p

[Bryher Conway]

Aw :(


And I was just about to lick up all the whipped cream too :mischief Oh well.

[Dasquian Belargic]

;; does trademark Dasquian :o which will inevitably, as with every threadwreck, lead to some woman molesting Dasquian ;;

[Lady Mylia]

Wow, a thread wreck... where can I find those threads? I wanna see the chaos... the destruction... LoL~ anyway... so right now there is whipcream, and molesting.... what's next?

[Marga Alton]

*grabs Das since he asked and throws him into a room filled with nude women, all of whom are looking like Xazor*

Back on topic for a brief second,

I'm gonna be in school every weekday morning except for hopefully a week where I'll get to kick back and relax while out camping.


Now to get back to our regularly schedualed thread hijacking.

*grabs can of whip cream and starts to spray the room with it, but mainly Marcus*

And I haven't had a togue(sp?) on since I was a little kid.

[Lady Mylia]

LoL~ well, wasn't that interesting... I like togue's, but I can't wer them here...

[Dasquian Belargic]

We call togue's "bobble hats" over here ^_^;

[Lady Mylia]

That's cute--togue, bobble hat, beanie, any other names for them?

[Alpha]

Wow...This thing is trying to stay on topic. :) I wonder, am I in the list of "Good Thread Hijackers"? :)

[Christian Lightheart]

winter hat, mayhaps?

[Lady Mylia]

okies, smart booty... I meant any other weird names....

oh yah, who else is infamous for hijacking threads?

[Vishalla Daoked]

I'm gonna need a toque for this winter cause I should be going someplace which actually gets snow. Real snow, and not the 2 mm which we get here.

[Dae Jinn]

Come here! We had ice covered snow and it was like being an elf!!!! :D

I've always called them toques. Terran told me that a toque is like, some weird hat from the 1800's or something. Just to try to prove me wrong! :shakefist!

Mylia -- the biggest thread wreck is "About Chase" or something like that. That thread was SO funny! :)

[Alpha]

That was an awsome thread! :) At first we got like 20 replies in a minute. :) It was hard to keep up with. :D

[Vega Van-Derveld]

It was a bit <smallfont color={hovercolor}>-Censored-</smallfont>ed up at first tho wasn't it ? I mean that was the thread where it was like


O ... wait ... sorry Chase isnt ded. I LIED HAHAHA

[Marcus Telcontar]

WTF is this snow thing everyone talks about? Frozen rain? Yeah right. never happens. I dont believe any of you this "snow" thing exists

[Wei Wu Wei]

SNo-cones! That's what they mean!

[Alpha]

Well, just wait...:) One of these days you'll see it...Then we'll al be laughing at your dumbstruck expression. :D

[Lady Mylia]

O_o well, that's just craziness... geesh... LoL~ About Chase? might just have to check it out...

[imported_Natia Telcontar]

I used to be in the same boat as you Marcus. I grew up not know what snow was, and then one year, I found out and man did I have fun.

And Dae, sounds like you have fun where you live, getting snow and all. Though with snow, don't you like have to shovel it or something??

[Tujk]

Come visit me in oooh... about 5 months... then you'll see snow.

You'll also be introduced to warmer clothes than you thought existed.

[Dove]

I remember when some of my college roommates saw snow for the first time. They were all excited while the rest of us couldn't care less.

[Dae Jinn]

It's not too thrilling when you get it every winter, Natia. I don't like the cold (or the extreme heat either, lol). I don't shovel it unless I absloutely have to.

And Marcus, go into your freezer, scrape off some of the icey build-up et voila! Snow :p.

[imported_Natia Telcontar]

I'd love to come and visit, but I'll probably be in school or visiting my parents (where they will have snow.)

I'm sure it would be thrilling though if you never get snow. The extreme heat though is something I could live without. Mind you, I do live without it.

And I'm guessing that I can't go around in shorts and a t-shirt in snow.

[imported_Jacali Danner]

I don't like snow, it's cold and wet and is terrible to drive in. A couple of years ago, I fell asleep at the wheel on my way home off 3rd shift and ended up stuck in a snow bank. I really hate it. I'd be very happy with 70-75 degree weather all year round....

[imported_Natia Telcontar]

70-75 degrees?? That's kinda hot isn't it?? The hottest(sp?) it gets here is about 30-32 degrees. And then we're really cooking.

*is Canadian so doesn't deal in Farienhiet(sp?) and knows that Jacali is meaning the Farienhiet(sp?)*

[Lady Mylia]

70 or 75 hot?! I would love it to be 70 or 75 all the time! At 11 PM right now, It's 79 degrees F! Just think of what temp it is at noon here during the day... today the high was 97 degrees...

[Bryher Conway]

It was 30 C here, and that's pretty hot. It's freezing in my apartment cos we can't control the a/c :grumble

[Marcus Telcontar]

In summer, my place outside got to 47C - that's about 120F I think. It regularly breaches 43 - 44 C. 35C in summer is resonably cool.

[Kelt Simoson]

Holy bollox O_o

[Lady Mylia]

Holy Poop! Where do you live??? Geesh...

[Dae Jinn]

In Aussieland, where wild Marcus' roam free! :lol

[Marcus Telcontar]

I live on the outer edge Sydney. Yes, it does get that hot :)

[Alpha]

Geez...I thought New Mexico was hot...:) It's cold compared o where you live! :)

[Pilot Akito]

LOL! But I wonder how cold it gets during the winter...

[Alpha]

probably not below 50F. :)

[Morgan Evanar]

Jeez, it only gets to about 105 (40) here. I don't want to even think about 43/44.

PS: the weather people lie about the temperatures here, add 5-10 degrees during the summer for the truth. All in the name of tourism, wrar!

[Lady Mylia]

O_o Wow, *is gonna stop complaining about the hotness here*

[Aaron Belargic]

Yeesh, and I thought 21 C was hot

[Marcus Telcontar]

21C is a nice witer's day.

Now that puts it into presepective, dont it? Places that think 21C is hot in mid summer, that's only a nice winter's day here. Some days in winter can reach 27 - 28 C. Granted, that's thats only once or twice per winter, but 20C is about a decent average. It gets on average to 2C overnight.

The outer west of Sydney is almost classified as semi arid, it misses out cause there is usually enough rain. This year, it's been a very nasty drought. That's why it's been, even for here, unusually hot. I was outside trying to get a windscreen out of a car (had to, no choice) and it was staggering how much water was sucked out of me. I literally drank a 2L bottle of Coke in one hit and STILL needed more.

So, i have no concept on how cold places get that can get snow. But I am very well aware how hot a desert can get :D

[Alpha]

lol. I LIVE in a desert, and it still don't get that hot...

[Ryla Relvinian]

*Pout* It never ever snows around here. I think the last time it actually snowed and stuck was around...8 years ago. It just rains and rains. Pretty nice, actually. (Spoken like a true Portlander, I know.) All the rain means that it's incredibly green all the time, which is great.

The temperature today is around 73F (22C, methinks) and it's nice and sunny. I spent the morning so far making a blueberry pie with the blueberries from my back yard. Sounds like a productive summer to me!

[Lady Mylia]

That sounds nice. Was the pie yummy? LoL~

[Morgan Evanar]

21C is a nice witer's day. Yup. Same here.

[Alpha]

Mark~ Is it really humid at all over there?

[Lady Mylia]

Humidity! ick!! Makes your hair go puff!
