Title: Why does it have to be winter.
Post by: MikMaq on December 16, 2012, 02:26:00 AM
Seriously. Were getting a foot of snow tonight no exaggeration.

I haven't done anything worth remembering in months.

And now I'm broke trapped in winter, trying to relocate.

For the first time in a while I realized my life is pretty awsome.

Atleast when it ain't winter.

Seriously does anyone here actually like winter?

To be honest, I live in st john's the weather is shit year round. It's the worst part of british weather combined with the worst part of canadian weather.

So the winter aspect only has a small bit to do with it.

I'm actually pretty excited just to get the fuck out of here.

You know your hard up when toronto seems like some tropical paradise.

Work is fucking miserable in the soaking wet, a while back we dug some foundations to the standard 900mm depth by hand as there was no access for the digger and at the end of the day the building inspector told us they had to go down to the depth of the nearerby manhole which was 2 fucking metres, so the next day we went back and there was a foot of water in the found and it was snowing, one of the most miserable days of our lives, hand digging is twatfull enough as it is

Its the getting dark early part of winter that gets to me also. Going from sunset around 9pm in summer to about 5 in the winter sucks balls. It really does make a lot of people miserable....liquor sales must double at least.

lol, if you don't have snow on the ground for atleast 3 months your not getting winter, hope this helps.


It's impossible to walk here for months at a time, to wet for skiiing, snow shoeing etc. I love snow and cold, it's wet snow for 6 months that's a fucking deal breaker.

Winters exist so you can enjoy summers. People living in constantly hot areas are often unable to work, concentrate, as the sunny weather conditionned them for generations to spend a lot of time outside enjoying themselves, neglecting to stay indoor and work, think, read, while people historically living in cold areas were forced to spend a lot of time indoor and as a result had to be creative; they became writters, inventors etc. Our environment shapes us . Our genes are a big part too. A white christian man living in the north will invent stuff sitting behind a desk, in africa he ll discover stuff by studying nature, when an atheist or voodoo believing black man will spend his life doing nothing and spread aids among his peers wether he s in a cold or hot area of the planet. Only black people able to rise to the level of the white man first have to be breeded with white people and to live with them distancing themselves from the black community, and to be christianized to give a higher meaning, purpose to their existences. Ideally one has access to cold and hot areas of the earth whenever he feels like, but you first have to be rich.

Get a job, your unemployed sorry ass cant enjoy life if you re useless to society/specie. You can only enjoy life if you contribute to it, that's how we ve been designed. Producing no efforts gets you no ability to enjoy rewards and you get sick of yourself. You have the typical behavior of an unemployed unfulfilled self victimizing virgin crybaby raised by a single mother, nobody should pity you.

Winter was always the time when Grandpa would pull out that old axe of his, with the Pecan Handle and show us how to chop wood.  He would stand behind us wearing ear muffs, and with both of our sets of hands on the handle, proceed to split the fat-lighter.  The faster you became at it, the more Grandpa would encourage you. "Harder, Faster, Thattaboy!".   I still get a tingle and chills whenever I smell hickory wood.

Sometimes we just don't know why we are depressed and we need for God to show us. "Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my (disquieting) thoughts: And see if there be a wicked way (literally = painful way) in me, and lead me in the way everlasting" (Psalm 139:23-24).  David simply asked God to look inside and show him the source of inner conflicts and the source of emotional hurts that would cause depression.  Then he asks God to show him the way out.

To be honnest, the reason why you feel bad is probably because your life isnt fulfilling enoug, more than because of seasons. You probably have some basic things to get in order first. Seasonal changes are just a worsening factor. Get your life back in your hands. You sound like a fatherless virgin crybaby.
