Just taking the opportunity to be a rebel, like my shirt says.Oh, and I wanted a new profile pic on here. :D< Nvm I missed my old one
to be fair, there are people that live in places with such a low chance of flooding occurring that even after it happens once, it is chalked up to an anamoly and they carry on living there with the low statistics. this is what we did like ten years ago, at least, when a storage unit in Birmingham, AL (where I lived at one point) got flooded, taking most of our stuff with it, but we lived there for a few more years. unfortunate as it was, some people just aren't able to move away after the fact, for sentimental or physical reasons alike
I don't think we've been on the continent long enough to know all of the patterns of nature, such as locust awakenings, floods, all that sort of stuff. They have that down in the Old World, at least in some places (Mediterranean).
you're right other continents probably have it down to a tee
Twitter. Why you'd go to a place that condenses every message to 140 characters is unknown to me besides the fact your friends are on there. 140 characters aren't nearly enough to describe thoughts or opinions; it's just enough for a useless bunch of sentences and hashtags. Come to think of it why do they abuse hashtags like they do on there? What's the point? Couldn't they put a ^ or a @ instead of a # on everything? It would make more sense; hashtags are usually descriptive of numbers, while the ^ and @ generally are used to describe topics.
