-Ryan Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 -sneaks in all squirrely like, steals Colorado's snow using a shovel, a pickup truck, and duct tape, then leaves- When was the first time you all saw snow? Quote
Naamah D. Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 I haven't seen snow in 5 years ^^; What's wrong, Naamah? D: I haven't made my Christmas list yet. ^^; I'm still sick. It's driving me crazy not being able to talk. We finally got snow today in NH, where do you live, Javi? I picture you living in the South(I'm from NC). Quote
Spritzie Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 I haven't seen snow in 5 years ^^; Lucky. :( I've been seeing too much of it this week. -sneaks in all squirrely like, steals Colorado's snow using a shovel, a pickup truck, and duct tape, then leaves- When was the first time you all saw snow? Yes! Take it all! :D I don't remember my first memory of it, but I always remember my dad taking my sister and I sledding and stuff in the snow. I was a summer baby, so the following winter would have been my first snows. Quote
rachiee Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 I haven't seen snow in about two months. And it's late December, the time of the year when it's supposed to snow and not be 50 degrees outside. In case anyone doesn't remember, there was a big snowstorm around Halloween in the Northeast, which led to messy roads, power outages and school cancellations. (My school didn't get cancelled because of snow; instead it got cancelled because the power was out district-wide.) Quote
khaos Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 I first saw snow in New York City when I went to vacation there a few years ago. Also, random, but when I was 3, a house burned down about 4 houses down, and right now they just finished building it. xD Quote
Spritzie Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Also, random, but when I was 3, a house burned down about 4 houses down, and right now they just finished building it. xD That's happened here. Last January, a house on my way to work burned down. It still isn't finished being re-built, though it's close. And there was another house when I was in middle school, that burned. It's still how it was then. (They determined it was intentionally set by the owner's for insurance money. Since it was intentional, they didn't get the money, so it's just sat there, boarded up. They haven't torn it down, or rebuilt it. And that was like, 13-14 years ago.) Quote

The fire was intentional? o_O They should still tear it down. Why leave a burnt house there when there can be more people there? :P Quote
-Ryan Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 Merry Christmas, TDN. Currently letting parents sleep in before running in and loudly waking them up. Quote
Tedhaun Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 I had to wait until 9AM or something to unwrap presents. I'm happy that I got a good sum of money this year, I'm willing to save it for some flea market visits. Quote
Spritzie Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 The fire was intentional? o_O They should still tear it down. Why leave a burnt house there when there can be more people there? :P Yep. They were hoping not to get caught. (They wanted to think someone else started the fire so they could collect the insurance money.) I don't know why it didn't get torn down. I know they couldn't rebuild because they didn't get the insurance money, but maybe that had something to do with tearing it down as well. Merry Christmas TDN! :) I'm at work today, but since almost everyone else is off work, things will most likely be nice and quite today. Quote
khaos Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 I got like five things. T_T My sister got like 1678365936483820203826273837589632485234 25 gifts. On top of that, I got five bucks. <_< That's weird, Spritzie. Who would they think started the fire? Weirdos. :P Quote
Spritzie Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 There's been plenty of buildings here set on fire, purposefully, just to ruin things. There's insurance money given, depending on the policy, depending on if it was intentional (I've known people who accidentally started fires with candles) or if it was, who set it. (The home-owner doesn't get the money, if they started it.) Quote
khaos Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 Apparently, the house that burned down on my street started with a candle. It was a man who lived there accidentally brushed against one. Quote
Spritzie Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 Yeah, candles can be dangerous if you aren't careful. A family I grew up with, the grandson (who was actually right between my age and my sister's age) started a fire in their house by having a candle too close to curtains. Quote
khaos Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 I've never purposely or accidentally burned anything. :P Off-topic: This was a request from my cousin, but I feel lie posting it here: Quote
Spritzie Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 I haven't either. I always make sure my candles are far from anything else, and kept on the proper surface. Quote
rachiee Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 I've never purposely burned anything...but once when I was making some pasta, I accidentally burned part of an oven mitt. I don't think I had it it very close to the flame, it was just touching the handle and one moment later it just... burst into flames. o_O Quote
khaos Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 If I do have a candle in my room, I have it on a granite counter away from anything else. I haven't burned anything, but I burnt my finger once when I was 3. :P Quote
rachiee Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 I don't use candles because I gave the only scented candle I have to my friend, and I would probably end up burning down my whole room. (There's paper everywhere, and besides, I don't consider my room to be clean enough to have a candle) Quote
Spritzie Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 My mom always loved candles and always stocked up on them. I think for the last week, We've had a berry scented candle burning in the kitchen all day, except when we've been sleeping. Quote
Rebeka Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 I like candles. Now, during christmas I have apple&cinnamon candle from Ikea. It smells wonderfull. I also have one that smells like vanilla and one that smells like berries. Wonderful :) Quote
-Ryan Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 lol @ how everyone ignored Khaos' picture.I thought it was funny... Quote
Spritzie Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 I have an addiction to candles. :whistle: I usually tend to like the berry ones: Mulberry, Raspberry Sorbet, Blackberry Crisp.... My mom likes more of the spice/pumpkin spice types. Quote
khaos Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 lol @ how everyone ignored Khaos' picture.I thought it was funny... ^That. :P I have one scented candle in my house, in my kitchen. I'm not a big fan of candles. Quote
