fuck winter
2 reasons

1) -40C is fucking cold
2) 5 feet of snow in two days hurts the back
 
5 feet of snow? That's a whole vanth of snow! =D

I have snowboard a couple of times and it was so fun. Except for the part where I hurt myself repeatedly.

Flinch I think you are right to be worried about the idea of snowboarding on acid. Sliding down something slippery fast, below freezing temperatures, potential for hypothermia. Sounds like a bad idea. Actually I think I read about someone dying from exposure while tripping really hard or letting his friend die. It may have been an urban legend. I think a pill would be safer, but not safe. If you do end up doing it, make sure you take someone who is going to be sober the whole time with you.
 
I love winter for the snow, as others have mentioned. Been going for 16 years, simply cant get enough.

For the board riders out there, what do you ride?

I've got a Burton Baron 167, Burton Mission Bindings and to go with that i've got some damn expensive Deeluxe Boots. Very thankful i spent the money on the boots though, they are the best ive had and make riding so much easier. Looking to upgrade to either Burton Cartel's or P1 bindings when i have the money. Possibly invest in a shorter board as well.

As for boarding on acid, i think its pretty stupid. I've smoked weed whilst boarding, twas fun but made me too cautious. Also tried a little bit of speed. That was heaps of fun but ended up with concussion so maybe not the best idea. As for acid though, i think it would be too overwhelming and dangerous.

I hate it.

I have SAD. I think it's got to do with the overcast and the clouds and the proximity of the dull clouds to me - something about negative ions affecting my serotonin.
 
Yeah, i think ill jst stick to sober snowboarding. Probably alot more fun though. Id love to have a nice dose and look out over the mountains though, ah wells.
 
I have reverse SAD. I love you, winter.

I love watching TV with a mug of hot soup (+ chunks!), a doona, slippers, my cats and rain outside. Possibly more than anything else.

I love bustling through wind and falling leaves with a coat and scarf and tights.

I love snuggling and running in the rain and being cold.

I love a hot Milo.

I love rugging up and going to the football on a freeeezing night.

I love pubs with open fires and live music and everyone marveling at how cold it is.

I love driving to work in the morning and getting a hot breakfast and rubbing my hands together and looking at everyone else doing the same thing.

OH WINTER, I AM SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE.

I hate the heat, when its 30 degrees, u cnt do ANYTHING to cool down =\

Yeah I get really panicky when it's hot!! I hate it :X
And I hate being sweaty, then having a cold shower, then jumping out and immediately being sweaty again! GRRR!

As for tripping whilst snowboarding....hmmmm i dunnoooo
Maybe try a low-dose, just for a bit of euphoria. Say, 1/4 trip, then have the other 1/4 once you're feeling the first 1/4.
I wouldn't recommend taking a whole one though, too intense.

When I was younger I always wanted to try taking a pill and skiing. But now that I'm a bit older and a bit wiser (a bit...) I don't think I'll be doing it.

That really sucks. Can some SSRI's help with that? Or maybe (I dunno) getting some skylights installed in your place so you can have more natural light? Wearing bright coloured clothes?? Listening to music that reminds you of summer??
 
You can buy lightboxes in America for SAD. I wouldn't mind one but I haven't found one over here.
 
beautiful pics neophyte!!!
i personally dont like snow - its too cold, but its luvly in pics
we hav an indoor skiing place here, 'snowplanet', that goes all yr round
i spose its to make up for aucklands lack of snow
one of aucklands few bonuses

Oh man i am so gullible!

...wait.....were you serious?? I don't even know anymore!
 
Heheh, drug_wench is from NZ, I think she's serious.

A doof is a big outdoor rave? Usually in the bush. Horrible things ;)

More winter appreciation: I like "cool weather" perfumes much better than spring (flowery) or summer (citrusy) ones and more of them are released around this time of year. Orientals, amber, vanilla, sandalwood, aoud, mmmm..

Ooh wow I wasn't expecting you to say that! I'm totally not a perfume kinda person...
Now that I think about it, I adore such fragrances as vanilla and sandalwood etc!!
<3 <3 <3 Winter!!! =D
 
I think my SAD is related to the lack of sunlight more than general temperature.

Why couldn't the acronym for Seasonal Affective Disorder be EMO?
 
My birthday is in winter. Not that I really celebrate hard these days. I am, however, due for a trip to the snow this year. I might give cross-country a go - I think I've had my fill of snowboarding.
 
I adore the cold. I think Autumn is just divine for all the beautiful changing colours that are about and how lovely and sunny most days are but just a crispness in the air. I love my winter wardrobe and love boots, scarves, beanies and big fluffy jackets and stockings.

I guess being on the bigger side summer is just uncomfy for me as i like to have self respect and wear for my size which means covering up and layers and it's just too damn hot to do anything fun except going swimming.

I love hot soups and coffees and i have more of them in winter. Love cuddling up as summer is too sticky to do that.

and nothing beats a doof on a winters day.... just beautful :)
