the fuckin weather thread

[dorian gray]

I really wish I could have just one weekend with single digit temps and the wind howling across the ghetto.

fixed

yeah but the crack whore hotel at the end of my street is boarded up now. Where do the addicts and whores go when they are turned out of their homes?

 

[dorian gray]

excellent question. story: my wife is a real estate agent and her mom is looking for a house. my wife showed her an actual crackhouse. i wish i had pictures. as soon as we pulled up i was like, "lets get the fuck out of here. now." women are so naieve. anyway, i dont have clue where people go. how about when projects are torn down, as they are here? whole blocks are being obliterated.

Whitehall used to have five or six flophouse motels...but they're slowly being eliminated. Whole squadrons of crack addicts and really skanky prostitutes are looking for new digs!

 

[dorian gray]

id really like to document this. seriously, how do they find out where to go? word-on-the-street kinda thing im sure. i doubt they get on realtor.com
this whole thing reminds me of the sopranos epsiode where tony takes tony jr to a crack neighborhood and junior says, "dad, thats a crackwhore".

this discussion about the weather is officially gayer then the Journey thread

 

[dorian gray]

we're not discussing weather anymore. now its crackwhores and sopranos episodes.

it's not gay to bitch about not getting any winter.

 

[dorian gray]

seconded. but man, ill be honest: living in nashville for the past 5 years has really turned me off against winter. its nice to be able to put the top down on the convertible in january. granted, if i lived in the country, id much prefer a winter. but in a city? fuck no. too depressing and inconvenient.

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

I don't care where I live. I WANT MY FUCKING COLD WEATHER. I hate even 'warm'.

Besides, up here, winter means like 3 days of snow, and the rest if freezing cold and rain.

I like to be able to ran around like a dumfuck and not be sweaty. I like to play hockey and bitch about the cold, not bitch about how sweaty my balls are.

HAPPY FUNTIME WEATHER!!!

ICONO WANTS TO DIE WEATHER

 

[dorian gray]

you should move to ohio. seriously. or perhaps another midwestern state. cold as a motherfucker but it doesnt snow much like it used to. global warming and all that. anyway, i just remember playing street hockey at high noon and my hands will still be trying to break into a million pieces...and that was with gloves on under my hockey gloves. youd like it.

edit: ah yes, michigan would be a top choice for you. funny though, i meet alot of michiganers here that moved away because of the extreme inconvenience of 40 feet of snow.

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

yeah. Gimme fucking northern BC personally. Mountains, forests, lakes, rivers, kickass fishing/camping/hunting and its fucking cold. Plus all winter you get to party to the northern lights. At like... noon.

 

[dorian gray]

it helps to live in a place where you can have a job

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

theres jobs up there.

 

[dorian gray]

in northern BC? what the fuck city is up there? why dont you move to edmonton or something? calgary is pretty cool too

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

cause alberta is gay.

What city? how about prince george, they're doing a massive upgrade to the harbor to split the stuff from japan between vancouver and there to free up some of the congestion/backlog.

 

[lizard]

It's january.
It's columbus ohio usa.
It is so warm out I'm going to lunch without my coat.

THIS IS WEIRD. WTF

 

[lurch70]

yeah ... looks like around 60 tomorrow ... will outdoor handwash the car ... a first for a January

 

[lizard]

good idea.
