Neosquid September 21st, 2011 1:58 PM

Oh, cool. So this is like this forums general chat thread?

DarkAlucard September 21st, 2011 2:02 PM

Yay! A new DCC!
We hope that this beginning will be exciting.
And that we have less chat of anime XD

vaporeon7 September 21st, 2011 2:09 PM

Yay a new thread!
I have a question, do people in America ever call it Autumn or is it always Fall?

Neosquid September 21st, 2011 2:10 PM

I usually call it Fall, but its sometimes called Autumn.

Meganium September 21st, 2011 2:15 PM

It's either one of the two for me. Sometimes I call it Fall, but on occasion during school stuff I refer it to as Autumn. But then Autumn is also a girl's name, so that's where I can use the word "fall". :P

Oryx September 21st, 2011 2:18 PM

For a while using Autumn on irc was like using the word forever, lol. Sometimes it still is :P

Impo September 21st, 2011 2:21 PM

...wait, there are editions?

I just call this thread the daily chit chat and that's it.
so much easier to type xD

Esper September 21st, 2011 2:23 PM

I call it fall so I can remember which way the time changes for daylight savings. You can't "autumn back."

Livewire September 21st, 2011 2:33 PM

Hooray my plan worked. Let's make this one successful, guys!

Neosquid September 21st, 2011 2:36 PM

I like fall, but winter is my favorite season.

Alice September 21st, 2011 2:43 PM

Lol, a new DCC, cue the 3 page long discussion on weather.

I hate fall though. D: I want it to be Summer forever. lol

Pretty sure they usually are called by their seasons at the beginning of each topic. Until some mod changes the title for the lulz.

OMG Char finally made the topic!

Ewwww. I want to live in San Diego where the temperatures range from 68-76 all year, lol.

DarkAlucard September 21st, 2011 2:50 PM

I hate hot weather. My favorite seasons are fall and winter.

Sweet Candace September 21st, 2011 3:07 PM

I hate hot weather and I hate cold weather. I'm really picky and finicky with the weather, and I'd prefer it to be comfortable all year round.

Xyrin September 21st, 2011 3:09 PM

I call it fall, I also love hot weather. :) It's so awesome and better than cold weather.

alisaie September 21st, 2011 3:11 PM

Oh sure, make the new one while I'm away in class. I see how it is. >:|

Anyways, I call it both. It just depends on my mood, I guess. Regardless I like the Fall/Autumn season. So many things to look forward to this year.

Meganium September 21st, 2011 3:26 PM

Weather talk in DCC = yay! :P

Let's traaaaaaade then! :D It's cold here in SD anyways, but at times I prefer the warmth xD

Charizard★ September 21st, 2011 3:29 PM

It's cold and warm over here. Today was 79 and yesterday was 59. :/

Why can't weather just make up it's mind? I ended up wearing a sweater to school today because I thought today would be a bit chilly today too, and I forgot to look at the weather, so needless to say, I was paying the price on the long, hot bus ride home.

YOU want the freezing, lake-effect snow-every-day-from-November-till-April weather that I live in? XDDD;

Neosquid September 21st, 2011 3:32 PM

Im generally immune to being bothered by temperature changes, but I prefer cold weather over hot weather.

Sweet Candace September 21st, 2011 3:34 PM

I want to live in place comfortable all year round. I can't stand the extremes in temperatures that we may get.

Weather can be a bit.....how do I put this? Bipolar sometimes. Especially during the Spring & Fall months. It refuses to stay between cold and hot, and that's where people like me get really sick with colds & stuff. >_>

BRING IT ON. In fact, I always wanted to see snow. it's been FOREVER since I've seen snow in person.

Oryx September 21st, 2011 3:39 PM

Oh Megan, you so silly, you'd get tired of that weather in a month. XD It's not the snow I hate...IT'S THE WIND ;_;

Sweet Candace September 21st, 2011 3:45 PM

I hate the ice that comes with winter weather. I always have to tread softly and slowly over ice so I don't slip and fall and hurt myself.

Shiny Celebi September 21st, 2011 4:14 PM

The weather has been cooler over where I am enough to wear fall clothes. Finally.

Sweet Candace September 21st, 2011 4:19 PM

It's been raining on and off today, and it's going to keep doing this until early next week. They don't want another sunny day until maybe next Tuesday or Wednesday.

alisaie September 21st, 2011 4:25 PM

We've been getting some thunderstorms here lately. We got one a pretty nice one yesterday, with some big thunder claps and lightning as well. Nothing today though, which right now I would guess it's a good thing, since I'm outside waiting to be picked up. xD;

countryemo September 21st, 2011 4:26 PM

[SIZE="a"]Its rained the last week here though we been getting some nice sun too. Yay a new dcc.

This is sent from my new android phone on the app. :)[/SIZE]

Neosquid September 21st, 2011 4:35 PM

I like the rain, although I hate getting wet from it. ^^;

Shiny Celebi September 21st, 2011 4:40 PM

I would like to have a nice day. Its been cloudy and rainy since last week.

Sweet Candace September 21st, 2011 4:56 PM

I never really like when it rains because when I go outside, I have to duck for cover to avoid getting soaked...

Livewire September 21st, 2011 5:42 PM

Depends. I usually like the rain, but at the same time there are days where i wish it was nice and sunny, like festivals and stuff. Speaking of, it better not be rainy come Saturday. >:|

-Jared- September 21st, 2011 5:44 PM

I love the rain. Like, all the time. If it weren't for the fact that it would flood, I would want rain every day. XD I don't mind getting soaking wet!

Truality September 21st, 2011 6:05 PM

I really like sleeping when it rains outside. It's that ultimate safety emotion, you know what I mean?

Also, yay for the beginning. You guys made it to two pages too fast.

Soft rain, yes. If it's a freaking deluge, then no. XD

KEEP POSTING GET TO 100 BEFORE MIDNIGHT.

alisaie September 21st, 2011 6:11 PM

In two hours? xDDD

I love rain in general, no matter how heavy it is. Just as long as I'm not stuck in it. :P

/just finished watching the season premier for Criminal minds ahh. <3

Now, is it gray cloudy, or is it darkish-blue-black cloudy? Because if it's darkish-blue-black cloudy with rain, I'd consider that a lovely day. You must not appreciate the rain and believe nice days can only be ones where it's sunny and light blue and all that!! Pity.

Shiny Celebi September 21st, 2011 6:12 PM

I really dont mind rain. I like the sound.

Neosquid September 21st, 2011 6:18 PM

Same, Celebi. I also find it pretty and relaxing. Theres other reasons why I like it, but its kinda hard to explain.

Saryka September 21st, 2011 7:12 PM

The sound of rain when you're going to sleep = the best thing ever.
The sound of a thunderstorm when you're going to sleep = even freaking better.

Shiny Celebi September 21st, 2011 7:15 PM

I sleep better when it rains, too.

Oryx September 21st, 2011 7:18 PM

Snow >>>>>> rain, all the time forevr

Shiny Celebi September 21st, 2011 7:21 PM

I love snow too. Its pretty, I hope we get a good amount of snow here this winter.

Neosquid September 21st, 2011 7:23 PM

Im wondering if I should play in the snow this year at all. =/ [/childish]

Livewire September 21st, 2011 7:24 PM

Snow is still pretty awesome, despite having to drive in it most of the time. I love it. XD

Chikara September 21st, 2011 7:28 PM

I like the rain only when I remember to force the passenger side window up on my car ;-;
It just kinda... falls halfway and won't roll up all the way. It's off the track.

If I forget, the seat gets drenched.

BUT YEAH when I remember to do that, I love the rain :D

Saryka September 21st, 2011 7:30 PM

I think I'm the only person who hates snow. XD I always get so depressed when the first snowfall hits because then it gets super cold, and then you have to shovel it and salt the driveways and... gah.

It doesn't help that I'm Canadian therefore we get a lot of it, haha.

Oryx September 21st, 2011 7:31 PM

I didn't even play in the snow last year, just rushed through it trying to get to classes because Notre Dame barely ever cancels classes cause of snow x.x loool.

We actually had like 3 days cancelled because of snow. I missed the memo one day and showed up for my morning class with the entire campus/parking lot empty. :|

alisaie September 21st, 2011 7:47 PM

We don't get snow down here in Florida. I would say instead we get Hurricanes, but we haven't gotten one in yeaaaaars (for the most part).

I'd rather have snow than a Hurricane. D:

Shiny Celebi September 21st, 2011 8:09 PM

That last Hurricane we had was bad.

donavannj September 21st, 2011 8:27 PM

We rarely get snow days here in the Twin Cities area (Minneapolis, Saint Paul, and their suburbs). We're just too darn prepared, and the worst snowfall levels usually happen just south of here or up by that wonderful port city of Duluth.

I'd take snowstorms over hurricanes any day, though. They're typically much less destructive, so there's no need to evacuate.

Her September 21st, 2011 8:34 PM

smh why is it Fall/Spring it should just be remade YEAR BY YEAR
though lol i was the one who pushed for the dual season title in the first place but whatever

I've never had a snow day in my life, lol. I guess that's what I get for a) living in Paris where the Eiffel Tower had to have been blown up before a school day was cancelled and b) living in New Zealand where snow doesn't exist.

22sa September 21st, 2011 8:37 PM

I hope I don't hit anyone, or damage anything while snow drifting

It shall be a good winter this year!

Nick September 21st, 2011 8:39 PM

I like snow for a day or two, and then the novelty of it wears off. Once there are footprints and all that in the snow, it just loses its appeal. Right now I really can't wait until winter. I want it to snow already.

Chikara September 21st, 2011 8:41 PM

I'm hoping we get a hurricane in Florida this year. Not a bad one, maybe like a level 2 baby hurricane. It's been raining here a little bit lately after a drought of like a month and a half. We could use a day or two straight of rain ;w;


Also, I found one of my dogs while hurricane Charlie was hitting Florida. We were going to the store while the eye of the storm was over us, and we found her running around. She was all dirty and still a puppy, so we took her in. She's terrified of rain now. Not thunderstorms, just rain in general. Poor baby ;___;

She's about 7 years old now.

Oryx September 21st, 2011 8:58 PM

In my old high school, I lived half an hour from Philadelphia and we got a day off because the Phillies won the World Series. So different in college xD

It's too bad Ophelia is going the same direction most of the Hurricanes from that area are going. ;A;

It's funny watching my cat look outside while it's raining. Like, he wants to go outside but he doesn't because he doesn't like getting wet.

One year when I was in High School we basically had two first days of school because of a Tropical Storm. xD;

My cat would rather die than have any liquid touch it's mouth than milk and the basi amount of water it needs to live, lol.

Oryx September 21st, 2011 9:22 PM

I never understood that on cats, lol. Does your cat hate being combed too?

My cat was a show cat for years so he associated combing with attention and love so now he loves combing. When we comb him he purrs and rolls over and gives us every side of him so we can make him perfectly gorgeous. xD

Her September 21st, 2011 9:35 PM

I don't know. I'm not allowed within 5 meters of the thing unless he's on my bed because then and only then am I only allowed to be near him. I guess he likes the warmth I bring at night? The rest of the time he treats me like the plague, lol.
http://i.imgur.com/mqQgg.gif

Meganium September 21st, 2011 9:37 PM

My kitties LOVE being combed. I don't know why though... probably I sorta introduced them to the brush when they were both kitties and and you know what happens from there. They purr loudly when they get combed. :D

Oryx September 21st, 2011 10:01 PM

Chris that's saaaaad :( You need a Persian!

Alley Cat September 21st, 2011 10:07 PM

My cats really like people haha! One of them comes up to me everytime it sees me. Like, "Oh, I know that guy! I'm gonna go say hi!" Because he comes and rubs his face all over you, purrs and then leaves. Haha.

Oryx September 21st, 2011 10:18 PM

Their eyes are so adorable omg (the breed)

Signomi September 21st, 2011 10:26 PM

Why hello there, new DCC.

Aww, I love that picture. Cats are so adorable. XD

Her September 21st, 2011 10:27 PM

jesus christ siggy you're up early

Oryx September 21st, 2011 10:33 PM

Yeah I love Persians so much @[email protected] Once I was having a cute contest with my boyfriend and I sent him a puppy of his favorite breed, and he sent me a Persian cat and I died, lol.

Signomi September 21st, 2011 10:36 PM

Hehe, I've got to be up early today. XD;

Need to drive my mother to work. @[email protected]

Ahh god, it's hard not to smile at cute little kitties, any breed of cat can make my heart melt.

Alley Cat September 21st, 2011 10:38 PM

^ My sister's dog Princess is so cute. She is a chihuahua/dachshund/other mix, and she is so disproportionate haha. Stubby little legs, but she is really cute hehe. Maybe I'll post a picture ^_^

But my friend Kobe has the cutest little kittens ever!!!<3 OMG. Like really, they are cuuuuute(:

Her September 21st, 2011 10:39 PM

omg I want to name my future dog/cat Princess, even though that's real childish lol

Signomi September 21st, 2011 10:40 PM

Ooh, you should really post a picture, I'm sure she's an absolutely precious dog. :3

Alley Cat September 21st, 2011 10:47 PM

Her name was originally Princess Nala, but we figured it'd be too complicated for her.

Here's her all dressed up:

And here she is sleeping:

And here she is when she was way smaller:

Impo September 21st, 2011 10:49 PM

How early is early for you, Siggy?

It's just after school for me xD

Signomi September 21st, 2011 10:51 PM

Oh my god.

My heart, it's meeeelting. ;A;

Such a cute puppy, aaaaah.

...well at the moment it's 7:50 AM! But I usually get up earlier than that. XD;

Alley Cat September 21st, 2011 10:53 PM

I get up at like 6:30 everyday. Haha. Even when I don't need to be awake until like noon.

Oryx September 21st, 2011 10:59 PM

I have to be up at 6:30 for an exam...it is now 3 and I have yet to sleep.

Ah, college

Signomi September 21st, 2011 11:00 PM

You... have exams at 6:30 AM?

That is ridiculously early. >_<;

Oryx September 21st, 2011 11:01 PM

Well it's at 8 but I usually leave at 7:30 and I can't stand just getting up and walking out the door. I need about an hour usually, half an hour after I wake up just to relax, then half an hour to get ready at my own pace, etc. XD When I have a lot less that that I get jumpy.

donavannj September 21st, 2011 11:02 PM

I have no time I have to be up... so I'm pulling an all-nighter for homework and other nonsense tonight so I can sleep tomorrow night since I have to be out the door by 10 AM Friday and don't get back until 9 PM and am being picked up by my parents after that.

Signomi September 21st, 2011 11:08 PM

Oh I see, for me I would need to be up early to go to college (though I'm starting university very soon.)

But I get up very early anyway, kinda...really hate sleeping in.

Impo September 21st, 2011 11:21 PM

Really? I love sleep.
I love sleep just as much as I love food *_*

DarkAlucard September 21st, 2011 11:29 PM

I don't hate sleep, but insomnia keeps me awake many nights, which I spend here on PC or use to advance to the documentation of my Master degree.

Her September 21st, 2011 11:31 PM

(Sleep? What is sleep? Sleep is for the weak. I'm usually up until 3am, not by choice, so if you happen to walk into my room at night, I'll usually be doing yoga or rolling around restlessly trying to sleep)

I got some movies out!
Die Hard: With A Vengeance
Kung Pow
Mulholland Drive
You Only Live Twice
Ben-Hur
Resident Evil: Apocalypse
Will and Grace: Season One (not a movie BUT WILL AND GRACE IS MY SECOND FAVORITE SITCOM NEXT TO FRIENDS SO THERE)

Impo September 21st, 2011 11:46 PM

Yay for movies :D
Incredibles is the best movie ever :3

and I tried making another sig, but unfortunately I didn't get the colour scheme right :/



PEACH



vaporeon7 September 21st, 2011 11:56 PM

Pfft sleep is overrated. I haven't been to sleep before 11pm in ages and I don't sleep in past 8am ever. Usually 6 hours sleep a night :)

Zeroblivion September 22nd, 2011 12:26 AM

Hey, I would talk about pets.
I have 2 dogs, 1 hedgehog, black mice and white mice.
If you don't know what hedgehogs are, this are one:
http://acornclass.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/african-pygmy-hedgehogs.jpg
But eventually I have an Albino Hedgehog. Those are African Pygmy Hedgehogs in that picture.

Alice September 22nd, 2011 12:33 AM

I've had some really bad cases of insomnia in the past... and when I say bad, I mean 3-4 months with no more than 2 hours of sleep a day, if any. I was so tired that my eyes were literally on fire 24/7, and when I came home from school for lunch, I sometimes fell asleep while eating. (I still never fell asleep during class believe it or not. lol)


Is it a bad sign that the song I'm listening to right now is actually called Insomnia? Complete coincidence.

Truality September 22nd, 2011 12:47 AM

I sleep 5 hours per day nowadays. It's not as much as I'd like to, but it keeps me healthy. There are some things I need to do so I just take time from my sleep for it.

Impo September 22nd, 2011 1:01 AM

I sleep on average 8 hours per day. On weekends it's a little more, just because I can't be bothered getting out of bed.

vaporeon7 September 22nd, 2011 1:03 AM

I may not sleep much, but I still spend a lot of time in bed. Lying down, going on the laptop, watching TV, etc.

Legendary Silke September 22nd, 2011 1:48 AM

I think I'm getting less and less sleep every year.

Sweet Candace September 22nd, 2011 4:50 AM

I manage to get about 8 hours of sleep every day. But, I hate waking up so early in the morning to go to school/college 3 days a week.

Legendary Silke September 22nd, 2011 5:09 AM

I feel your pain. Waking up at 6 AM, sometimes 5:45 AM, to go to school... 6 times a week... OUCH!

Sweet Candace September 22nd, 2011 5:29 AM

And then I'm at college from 8 am to 2 pm Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and having to wait until 3 pm Wednesday to get a ride home, as I don't have my license yet.

vaporeon7 September 22nd, 2011 5:32 AM

I can't sleep past 7.45am. My body has an inner clock that will wake me up.
