I always feel bad for people when they say they've never seen snow / wish they white Christmases, etc. ;u;

[BinaryPeaches]

I miss White Christmas. I used to live in Colorado, so we would get them all the time. However, I've live in Florida for a good few years now, and I haven't had one since. ;A; Contrary to common belief though, it can get pretty cold in Florida. Least in the part of Florida where I live.

If only I was so lucky myself. I'm so not looking forward to the snow coming back next month T___T

[BinaryPeaches]

You should y'know... send some of that snow to the people who's never seen it/hasn't seen it in a long time!

[Netto Azure]

I'm going to Canada this winter break so I'll go freeze my butt off the snow. :U

[Xulek]

Oh don't worry, as soon as I finish this catapult in the backyard all of ya will definitely be getting some of the snow I've had to live with for the past 9 years now hehehe.

[Pokemon Trainer Touko]

This is soooooooo unfair it never snows here ;A;

[Went]

I have seen more snow in the past two years than in the other 19 years I have been alive for.

Yay climate change!

[Xulek]

I'm moving to the ****ing bahamas by the end of next year, I don't care if I have to swim there at this point X___X

And I need a new sig pic. Maybe go Black/Blue or drop the personality test results altogether by now.

[donavannj]

You know, that catapult idea sounds really good. Let's build enough to send it to all to where they don't get any and we snowed-in folk don't have to deal with it for three days, ahahaha.

[Xulek]

I got a better idea, send them all the snow we have and we won't have to deal with it for at least a week. Have fun shoveling the stuff by the 3rd day hahaha.

When I lived in Florida, it snowed once for the entire 5 years I lived there. Apparently, that was the first time in about 20 years. Most people down there of my generation had never seen snow before. Also, if you slept in past 11AM, you missed it.

Went, you're stealing our weather, give it back. XDD

Its even more bi-polar than normal.

Because it keeps trying to get cold, and then stops and reverses.

You were in Central Florida, right? I remember that snow fall. It was enough to make a snowball, but it still wasn't much. Nothing compared to the snowfall in Colorado, but that's a given.

The last time I've seen snow was when we went up north in Arizona to go see it (because my grandparents live in Phoenix and well.. they don't get snow there. you have to go north in Arizona).

If it was cold enough right now it would be snowing. But alas, it's only rain right now. ;A;

[The Corrupt Plague]

It hardly ever snows where I live. It's mostly about once every two or three years if I get lucky and even when it does, it's usually not "deep" enough to do much.

Yep. I lived just outside Dunnellon (had a Dunnellon address), and went to Crystal River High. It's my understanding that a lot of in Ocala for some reason go to Dunnellon High. :\

It's happening in your part of Kansas, too? THAT KEEPS DRIVING ME NUTS. I'm like JUST STAY COLD ALREADYYYYY. @____@

I doubt we'll see snow for awhile. As someone who walks to work, I'm not going to complain too much. Yet.

[Shining Raichu]

Okay guys, it turns out sammi isn't as good a fencer as I am, SO I HAVE KILLED HER AND AM MOVING THE THREAD. This time it's going to.........

HEY LOOK I HAVE THE THREAD YAY

[lunis]

Generally speaking, who thought that pokemon would have lasted this long?

[Netto Azure]

Ah PG, my first forum how have you been after all this time?

Anyways not surprising considering the heavy Kids promotion, established fanbase, and of course the simple yet intricate mechanics of Pokemon. :U

[BinaryPeaches]

I'm not too surprised, considering some of the other series that have lasted just as long or longer. It doesn't help that it's grown to be such a big franchise either. I think the better question is how longer are they going to pump things out to keep it up.

[Pikapal642]

Not surprised at all, actually. xD It was a major success when it hit America, it has a fan base consisting of both younger and newer fans, and older fans who have stuck with the series. Plus the games are simple enough for kids to enjoy, yet has humor and mechanics older people can enjoy. :3

I am more surprised in how long I personally have stayed interested in Pokemon, lol. My grandfather would have been right in saying I would be done with it be high school, if my brother hadn't been so interested in it. xD Now we keep each other interested. xD

Being one of the older group who have loved and still love the Pokemon franchise since I was kid I didn't think I would be interested for this long, but they keep reeling me back in. x]
Plus all the kids and new fans they're getting are probably going to keep Pokemon around for a while.
