While We Wait: Writer's Block & Other Lame Excuses

[Angst]

My power level is now read by Vegeta's scouter.

Das, did you get the cold spell that hit Moscow?

Das, did you get the cold spell that hit Moscow?

It's been pretty stably -23 to -27 here recently. Definitely colder than usual for a longer continuous time, though I don't know if that qualifies as a cold spell. So if I haven't been posting much even though I said I was free now, it is because I have succumbed to the cold.

 

[Grandkhan]

-23 is not a cold spell.

-23 degrees celsius is not a cold spell.

What.

 

[Luckymoose]

50F is a cold spell.

 

[Gem Hound]

over here a Cold Spell is -35 celcius.

What kind of frozen wasteland do you people live in?

Seriously, any temperature below 0 is really cold down here. Like, the lowest it'll get in winter is like, well, 0.

 

[Tycho]

And here I thought our single digit weather patterns in the winter were heinous enough.

 

[Masada]

The cold-spells here are measured in positive double digits.

 

[Terrance888]

Pfff, I have a cold spell that can knock your socks off!

In Ohio, single digits are cold speeds, negative doubles are freezing spells. The latter, combined with gusty winds, is enough for school cancelations.

Anyway, apologies for being out the entire day. The internet was out and I didn't have my laptop available. Regardless, progress on the update was made!!!

Also: Nova is epic. Learned about Gothic Churches and the Mines of Solomon.

I assume you mean this Nova

In which case, god yes. Even better with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, though.

i know you Rusians are tough, but -20 is still on the chilly side in my book. I'm pretty sure a single night of it would freeze every water pipe in New Mexico.

 

[Terrance888]

NOVA science now is also great! It is more a science-magazine-style spread of short docs/interviews than the epic sweep that NOVA (period) offers, but I enjoy that as well.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Pff. You southerners are pansies. It's recently warmed up to a balmy -24 Centigrade up here in the Yukon, if you ignore the wind chill.

 

[Symphony D.]

Yeah well your environment is going to melt down and your kind are going to go the way of the Neanderthals so there.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Eh, we're all dealing with climate change in different ways. We're getting invasive species, rainier summers and milder winters, but at least we're not going to turn into a desert.

 

[Symphony D.]

This was already a desert and you can't make me feel bad when my feelings are so accurately summed up by this SimCity 4 LP commentary: "(I have so many negative things to say about Arizona that are completely off topic, but let's just say I will feel smug as hell when they finally run out of water, even though I know they will blame Mexicans for 'stealing all our resources.')"

 

[TheLizardKing]

Rarr my weather conditions are far more extreme/hotter/colder than your weather conditions, and so I will laugh at you for complaining about weather I have become accustomed too.

 

[Symphony D.]

You so meta dawg you like Metatron how you get so meta?

 

[TheLizardKing]

Not meta, just temperate. Clearly the best climate to live in.
