In the middle of the horrible winter, I usually pause and ask myself why I live where I do.  I mean, why not go somewhere warm?  But I will look back on this thread and remind myself why I am where I am.  A blanket of snow - a blanket of snow vs wild fire - wild fire.  That shit is way too stressful.  I don't know how you can put up with it.  I hope for all of you effected that you are effected in the least problematic of ways possible - you know like the kind of thing that a garden hose can clean up.  Just... just some settled ash on your siding.

You know what place doesn't have snow *or* fire? 

North Carolina. 

Of course, we have the occasional hurricane.  But compared to blizzards, wild fires, and earthquakes, I'll take a little wind every three years or so. 

And if you don't live on the coast, you might have a tree branch on your windshield if you're really unlucky, or -- more likely -- be without power for a few days, but on the whole, with a few exceptions, hurricanes don't cause much damage this far inland. 

Everybody should live near me so we can party.

Yeah, but tell the truth: you have humidity the likes of which will make people wish they would get knocked unconscious by a tree branch so they don't have to suffer through it.

yeah, but...

Charlotte is cool, though. Charlotte is becoming cooler by the second. I mean... it's not that cool right now. Probably less cool than St Louis. But... it's getting cooler. Whereas St Louis is becoming less cool, as they turn every single cool old building into lofts, tear down other cool old buildings, crime rates go up, &c.

Oh, it's no worse than D.C., and it's sure as hell better than Florida. 

Also, we have air conditioning.  Everywhere. 

When we first moved here, I was shocked to discover that they air condition the public school buildings.  The hardest part about summertime is walking from my air-conditioned house to my air-conditioned car. 

Also, hot leather seats.

This was shocking? We had a/c in our schools up in PA, too. They had the kind where the thermostat was inside a plastic case to keep people from fiddling with it. So if you wanted the temp to change you would have to soak a paper towel in hot or cold water and drape it over the box. That would fool the thermostat into thinking the room was much hotter or colder than it actually was.

I suppose I'm lucky where I live... smoke in the far distance north and west, the faint smell of it on a stiff breeze and...

That's it, happily. But good Lord from the look of the news, man, some people. Awful stuff.

I am glad you are all safe. Fires are scary as all hell.


I really don't like when people apply sexual assault analogies to things to mean "doing well." "I raped that exam!" makes me uncomfortable.
So, today, I am going to consensually fuck the shit out of my human ev exam. I'm afraid I might start making embarassing moaning noises about how awesome I will be doing at this exam. Other people will be jealous, because they'll be all "hey baby, let me tell you about the Cercopithecines... *leer*" and the exam will be like "hell no, leave me alone, I only let Daniel talk to me like that! what kind of Exam do you think I am?"

Can a person who sexually assaults their exam still sign the honor pledge?

We... we have airconditioning everywhere here too.  But it gets just as hot here as it does there... just not for as long.

It is possible to rape an exam. If the exam did not want you to fuck it, then you raped it.

yeah, ok, but I don't rape. I make sweet love to. Or, you know, if the exam is into it, I will fuck it hard.

Today the exam was like "you can fuck me pretty hard, but, I'm not into that thing you suggested" and I was all "ok, yeah, I can handle that. Maybe I don't get exactly what I want in this situation."

He asked some pretty bullshit questions. But I was still able to make educated guesses? I could narrow it down to two options, so, you know.
