P1na: How often do you guys see the snow? And would you miss it?

F4LL0UT: A lot. There's been a lot of snow here in Warsaw for the past couple of weeks. Also in November/December there was already a "first wave". And yeah I would miss it. It's a little annoying how cold and wet everything gets but I love the sight of it (especially at night), I also love the sound of walking through it and I love how generally everything looks and sounds cozier (note how quiet everything gets when there's snow everywhere).

Btw, don't know if someone mentioned it already but I think last winter a GOG user living in an African country posted a thread because he got excited since it was snowing there for the first time in his life. It was kinda heartwarming. :)
As someone from Florida, I'm still greatly amused by snow in Warsaw.

jamyskis: I think I have YouTubitis - every time someone says something, I can think of the ideal YT clip for it.

F4LL0UT: It's okay as long as you post stuff as hilarious as this vid. :D

F4LL0UT: Is it true that you guys decorate Christmas palms there?
Sometimes, yes, but that's generally done as a joke. Generally we use pine trees; most people I know use plastic ones.

So glad I am not a mechanic anymore otherwise I'd have to deal with snow melting everywhere and having to swap summer tires for winter ones before the first snow falls. I like snow when I know I am stocked on food and such but God help me if I have to go out in it ...

Ian: well it's official sports fans, the UK has seen 4 flakes of snow, and is officially CLOSED until further notice !!!!
Is the UK going to hide from its own shadow and declare that it's going to be 6 more weeks of winter? :D

Ian: lol :) we just cannot cope, makes me a tad embarrassed when you see some of the pics from other countries where they just get on with life :)
Don't feel too bad :D I live in a country where the folks responsible for ensuring the public transport does its job are regularly surprised by the fact that it snows here. One headline in a paper around here mentions how the winter just snuck up on them like a thief in the night. Because, you know, Poland is a tropical country and all :P

reaver894: Just throw a snowball at a train, that should be sufficient
Man, that just makes me think of Madagascar in Epidemic: "SHUT.DOWN.EVERYTHING!"
