Bittersweet Candy Bowl

Alright so do any of you have a particularly hated season or weather-related pet peeve that you have to put up with where you live?

Me? For the last two weeks our house has been getting bombarded with, you guessed it, acorns. Our dog has been scared shitless again for the thousandth time by these accursed plant bombadiers, negating any chance that we’ll sleep tonight… again. You’d swear tree branches were falling out here.

So yeah I want to know if anyone else out there has some unexpected seasonal obstacles. It will make it easier to laugh about the 1000000 plant seed bombs hitting our roof .____.

FUCKIN WALNUTS. They are big, green and leave dints and stains on all the cars. 100 time worse than acorns I promise you. And all the tree around my house are dead so they our house is in constant danger of being knocked down by a tree.

Meh, cant really say i do. The only season i dislike is Summer, and that’s all cause the heat and sun…I like cloudy rainy and cold the best. Yeah i know, i’m weird

Arboreal abortion is much preferable to allergy season. It means your nose isn’t getting gang-banged by horny plants.

Winter

unexpected thaws in deep winter causing pigions to become active and next on my balcony, any other season i could just shoo them away but winter, too damn cold and my screen door can be frozen shut, so the bastards are there untill spring

Canadians ahahahaha

Aw. I can’t laugh at Triplesmex.

Texas doesn’t get winter. Not Dallas any way.

Summer wasps, anyone?

of it did it would be alberta, canadian Texas it is, cowboys hats covered in snow, Oil industry executives fallling on their asses on ice patches (the only funny thing about winter)

the other seaons are hilarious though, because its so dry when it rains everyone here whips out umbrellas and runs through the street looking afraidlike the world was ending
back in windsor it would be hot enough to cook an egg on the sidewalk one minute and then the next BANG! violent thunderstorm with rain so intense it would hurt to walk under it.

That’s how Dr. Atkins died. At least the Atkins Diet died with him.

Spring is stupendous because the world is brought back to life, the rivers run with clear water - and the flowers of this season are by far my favourites.
Summer is splendid because it is warm and the foliage of the trees is thick enough to cover the more boring parts of the forest floor. Besides, the sun.
Autumn is amazing because of the vibrant colours that appear, and the leaves blowing, and the frequent rain that I’ve come to appreciate more and more.
Winter is wonderful because of the snow that blankets the ground, and because it is a good season for both playing outside and cuddling inside.

I would give my opinions on climate and weather that falls outside these categories (tropical sones and whatnot), but unfortunately I have run out of appropriate alliterations. I’m just so happy to have been given life. ^_^

Man save for leaving a comment, you guys are all high on life or something

Vaccum(Spelling?), Flash-freezing… though it is funny as hell when you toss a shaken-up can of soda out the airlock. hehe, picture a can ripped into pieces, with a block of soda and ice-bubbles floating around.
Back in WV though, the fast weather changes could actually make you sick O.o

Hey Jerk, is this, “winter” The time period between Summer and the next summer?

It’s been hot and incredibly humid here despite the Ber months. It’s all thanks to 5-10 minutes of intense rain followed by a sudden beat down of the tropical sun. We’re averaging 32C and 84% Humidity. At night.

That sounds absolutely amazing to watch Nero.

I hate… honestly i don’t know, all seasons have ups and dwons, there’s none i really hate/like above the others.

Anything wrong with that, happeh? ^_^

I dislike summer a bit because everyone where I live is all, “OMG, TOO HOT, PUT AC ON TO NEGATIVE 100 FOREVER!!!” Which is really annoying when I decide to wear shorts.

Summer.
It’s too bloody hot during that season whenever I go to the U.S

@ happehface: If by “life” you mean “xanax, Red Bull and amateur porn,” you’re damn right.

@ILB: is there anything you dont like?

also, i hate winter…. especially canadian winter… where it can go down to -50C or colder…
the worst part: schools dont close unless its -40C

She doesn’t like it when I don’t live up to my potential.

(But doesn’t care about you other monkeys. Nyeh!)

Frigging acorns killed my family and my dog.


I don’t have problems with these things, because there’s none where I live.

Fuck yeah

That’s how Harry Potter really lost his family and got that scar. Acorns.

That is not true, Johnny. I care about everyone. ^_^ And besides, you must live your life as you want to; I hold no jurisdiction. I just feel the slightest bit sad that I will probably never read your poems in book format.


And there is very little I don’t like, apart from the obvious ones (death, cruelty, illness, disaster, and so on). Why should I dislike the rain just because it makes me wet? Or the sun merely because it burns? Should I care less for cats than for dogs, since they have such a rivalry? Resent the wind, as my hair is tangled by it? What about the sea; is my ruined sandcastle due reason to hate it? ^_^

Hail. In the middle of July. I mean, seriously!?!

The meterological conditions required for hail only occur in the summer, getting hail in July should be no surprise.

It should be obvious that he understands the concept behind the event, but what he is complaining about is the apparent irony of frozen precipitation during the middle of summer. After all, one’s annoyance at any occurrence is in no way connected to one’s knowledge (or lack thereof) of the event itself. There is simply no correlation.

@ ILB: No, actually I find it quite admirable.

@J. Vince: Red bull is bad.

Hee. I’ll just walk about and spew a bit more sunshine, then. ^_^

Careful were you spew that stuff ILB! At this close a range, it will cause skin cancer in a matter of seconds!

It was just a metaphor. ^_^

I need ILB’s positivity or however you spell it…

@ILB:And I was joking.

You can have some of mine if you need it HF.

@ Hysteria: Thanks, I’ve just been feeling a bit trapped lately, I usually bounce back though n__n;

I know the feeling. Don’t let it keep you down, you need to stay happy to live up to your name.

Yes, sir!

You know given all the crazy places people said they lived in in the other thread, I was expecting some cool stories about tornadoes and hurricanes or something…

Although it is good to see I’m not the only one plagued with tree-nut problems.

@ ILB I posted them in the best format I could in Arby’s poetry thread. And I understand. You have to save face in front of everybody. Treat ‘em all equally, eh? Eh?

@ happehface: Drinking Red Bull instead of water is the least of my problems, I assure you. <3

@J. Vincero(Jerk): Do you mean… The claps? D:!

I’m no fool, I wrap my tool.

This has to do with complaints about the weather how?

No, Johnny. ^_^

lol ninja, he said he had bigger problems so I just wanted to make sure he was checked. Paulo might have spread STD’s to him.

I think ILB just gave me permission to go commando from now on.

Well if ILB said it you know you’re in the clear.

Hells yes. Gonna put some stank on some skank, aw yeah.

i could tell you about what i went through during hurricane ike if you want hurricane stories…naahh who cares about that

I drove from Waco to Dallas during the Katrina evacuation when they thought Rita had enough power to be a Class 1 hurricane in the middle of Texas.

Hee. It’s almost endearing, the way you deliberately misunderstand me. ^_^

I understand you so well that I can take what you say and twist the words to something you had implicitly not intended. That is how you know I am your friend. xD

But of course. ^_^
