      I don't feel so bad about the frost warnings here now, thanks!

        I don't live in fucking Alaska or fucking Antarctica, and it is fucking snowing so hard that it is almost a fucking blizzard. It is May, and it is fucking snowing. Fuck.

        It's snowing here, too, only instead of snow it's white, fluffy plant bits.

          I'd rather have the snow/ice bits. At least it doesn't cause sneezing fits and make my eyes swell shut. 😢

            Man, I remember snow. I haven't seen it in awhile, but I remember it! Also... agreeing with @2mspris. Fuck you, pollen. I don't even HAVE allergies and it bothers me just for sheer volume.

              I'll give you some of my 90 degree muggy weather in trade for something that's not making me have heat headaches.

                Ah, that time of year where every plant in the world decides to forcibly rape your nostrils, causing all sorts of havoc. it's a lovely world we live in

                  We had seven feet of it this winter. In eight hours.

                    This year we had 15 feet of snow. And that's just falling, not including the piles the plows made. Most of it just left ... last week? Granted that was just the stuff that had piled up, along the highway, on the south facing side of a mountain.

                    I take it back, completely complaining about the second frost warning in May. @BetterJudgment, you have my deepest sympathies,

                      All this talk of snow is making me happy for my hot humid weather. My hair though...so frizzy. Soooooo frizzy.

                      Fun? What is this fun thou speakest of?

                        It was a nice balmy 50F when I got up this morning. I find this startling since this time last year I was beginning to want to peel my skin off to get some relief from the heat.

                          I'm freezing all the time now. Starting at 73 and below I really need sleeves.

                            1. The upper floor where my room is gets stupid hot.

                            2. Stupid, petty things making me sad. C'mon. So what if all my friends get to do something like a plot and I don't? It isn't the end of the world. Maybe I need to give this stuff more time.

                            3. Losing 2 days because I accidentally mixed up medicine and double dosed myself into a hallucinatory, wobbly, heart racing state. Bought a new pill pod at least.

                              Apparantly I need a new CPU for Witcher 3, which also probably means I need a new motherboard which will cost me. And on that note I still seem unable to gain employment over the summer which makes problem A a bit difficult.

                                I get the dilemma, but, at the same time its why to me it seems like going with a console over a gaming PC is where its at. I know that doesn't mean anything to you now, but, maybe when future costs look to cost the same as that PS4 / xBox One you could make a change. If anything its cost of ownership is basically the cost of the console to replace it every n (5-10?) years. There are some other accessories you will want/need but nothing to major. Games and such will run close to the same price and possibly less if you do the used/sell/digital dl sale ect. Just food for thought.

                                Then when it's all over and the rest of you are ready for Dead Animal Pickup, I'm gonna go balls deep into Dahl. But only because she asked me to. Sweet-like. - Riddick (2013)

                                  There's nothing like laying in bed with my feet propped up while I play my game. It's just not the same on a pc. I find them entirely different animals. I get that some people are into mods and stuff but I'm so over it. I just want something to turn on, do what I want for how long I want and to walk away when I'm done.

                                  Fun? What is this fun thou speakest of?

                                    Witcher has always been like that. It's a good time to get a new computer if you have the money; get a computer that will run the current Witcher, you're computer won't be obsolete until the new one.

                                    Having said that, have you checked canyourunit? Is it one or two things you need you can switch out, or is it a whole new computer?

                                      My left leg. Specifically this deep tissue infection. Leg, you've been infected since probably January, but it wasn't really weird enough to go in until the start of March, and you've been on four different types, and too many periods and amounts to count now. Get better, dammit!

                                        It's just CPU,
                                        Graphics, RAM everything I got enough to be able to play Witcher 3 at high. It's just CPU, but I am unsure if a new modern CPU would fit with my current motherboard hence why I might need a new one there.

                                          That sucks. If you can wait a couple of months to have sex on a unicorn, I would suggest waiting for school to start. At least here anyway things go on sale then.
