-Ryan Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Merry Christmas, TDN. Currently letting parents sleep in before running in and loudly waking them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted December 25, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 25, 2011 Share 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.

khaos Posted December 25, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 25, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaos Posted December 25, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 25, 2011 Share 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.

khaos Posted December 26, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 26, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted December 26, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaos Posted December 26, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted December 27, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 27, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebeka Posted December 27, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritzie Posted December 27, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaos Posted December 27, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I don't know when it started, but I've loved candles for a long time. (My first job when I was 16, was actually at a candle store.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naamah D. Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I like the way spice and vanilla candles smell but I prefer potpourri. It makes my nose happy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Did someone say scented candles? I prefer lavender-scented candles myself (not just for the light-purple colour), as well as any fruit-scented candles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I love almost all scented candles, especially the ones that smell like pie, cookies, spices or anything tropical. The only scented candles I don't like are the ones that have a really strong flowery smell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Lavender ones are awesome! It's always such a nice, refreshing scent. That's another favorite of mine. I usually would light those ones in the evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Score in Blue Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I don't mind scented candles. But I seriously dislike those candles that don't go out when you blow them on the birthday cake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linsta Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I think the only thing I've ever set on fire was a bowl of ramen in the microwave >.> That was back in 1st year of university when I was living in dorms. I was so glad that it didn't set off the fire alarm at 3am or I'm sure everyone would've hated me xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Considering my luck its a mircale half of Arizona isnt in flames right now. :P So I just played CoD online for the first time. My god these people take that game seriously. o.o Not as bad as when I tried a gamer truck though. I still have nightmares about that.
