akward thing to say
you dunno how Natan perceives Xmas and he even pimped his avatar Razz
as an atheist meself I don't celebrate it but the spirit behind it I can embrace
that is also why I made some Xmas avatars for others

I only celebrate new years and birthdays, nothing religious Wink

but... new years
are also after religious beliefs

I bet the canadians (when their faces have thawn and the ice has melted off of their computers) will have a laugh at you guys with your pathetic snow that has to be measured in cm. Not that I'm a fan of the Imperial (sounds like something decreed by darth vader Razz) system but 0.2 m of snow sounds pathetic. Razz


It's 0.02 M Razz


That's even worse but I was referring to Reindeerland where they had '20-30 cm' of snow.

I don't wanna open anything that has iNatan spoiler on Laughing

As for Christmas: I stopped to 'celebrating' the religious side of Christmas a loong time ago, and since my family was never that religious to begin with, we celebrate it mainly for the family sake. I see it as a time where we are all together and having dinner and stuff like that. As I've said, mainly for the sake of family...

I hate winter here in Norway..
We only get 1-2 days a year with snow :'(

Sunny and temps below freezing temp for a few days, then lots of rain and +5c on saturday, then down at -1 on sunday and the rest of next week with sun again..

Theres never any fucking snow in this shitty country.
Winter is only rainy and stormy.


I hate you.

Pff you wimp, -11 isn't enough to even justify wearing a hat and gloves. -20 minimum for proper cold weather, and -30 is where the fun starts. Twisted Evil

Temperature is relative, wind speed also has influence on the effective temp.

Haha, damn Lathieza, I was gonna ask what the hell you were talking about with your 2cm, but I guess your from a more southern bit of the netherlands

Living in Groningen (northern province of the netherlands) sure has become more interesting. Public transport having issues for days now. Even no buses at all on the 17 or 18th (when you mentioned the 2cm Laughing ). These are from that day;
