First rule of Fight Club: Don't talk about Fight Club
 
Summer's here! I'm lacking colour! I should really go out and get some exercise! I'm unemployed!

Everybody chat!

rules


• Try to go with the current topic! This isn't a thread where you just randomly post anything. Whatever others are talking about is what you should be talking about - let the topic make its own way rather than changing it randomly.
• This is not a welcome thread! We're happy for new users to contribute here, but if you want to post an intro thread, here is New Users / Welcome.
• Keep section-specific discussions to their own sections! Light chat about stuff which belongs elsewhere is ok, but don't go into a huge discussion about competitive battling, Pokémon Anime, etc. when they have their own sections elsewhere on PC.
• Keep up! Don't ask what the topic is. Look back over a page or two and figure it out for yourself.
• Don't flame, troll, or harass. This is a light-hearted thread but it still follows all PC rules.


shiny new rule exemption: you are not required to post 25 characters and 4 words in this thread. However, in all other threads in this section, the limit still applies. I must stress though that all other rules apply and this exemption is not to be abused for the sake of it or for postcount farming.

Oryx June 20th, 2012 11:13 AM

It's 95 degrees here I'm not going outside. :( That's why I have a step inside to exercise on!!

Ephemeral Euphoria June 20th, 2012 11:16 AM

I feel like my skin's literally burning whenever I step foot outside now, at least the library's cool enough for me to thrive in but even then I'm surprised the roof hasn't caught on fire by now. My point is Jesus mother****ing Christ it's hot out right now but then again I just have to be in southern Cali don't I.

Oh and started playing my PSP again, only games I got for it though are Persona 3, KH Birth By Sleep, and Ultimate Ghosts & Goblins right now.

Karma Police June 20th, 2012 11:18 AM

Summer is almost over for me now :( BUT at least the worse days of heat are going and the rains are gonna start soon. :D

Shiny Celebi June 20th, 2012 11:19 AM

It is seriously hot outside where I am today, it feels over 100 degrees ;_; I hate the heat. Luckily I have a pool so I can swim.

Overlord Drakow June 20th, 2012 11:21 AM

PARTY AT SHINY CELEBI'S PLACE EVERYONE!

Oryx June 20th, 2012 11:22 AM

That depends, is it an inground or an aboveground pool?

/pool snob

Sheep June 20th, 2012 11:23 AM

It's horribly hot here too. Had to get my brother from his school bus stop like 20 minutes ago and felt like I was going to choke and die because of the heat >:

Consumed with envy. The arduous efforts I take to beat the heat are all in vain in light of the electric supply shortage. Haha, third world problems.

Shiny Celebi June 20th, 2012 11:25 AM

Lol I guess Im hosting a PC pool party xD

Toujours: Its inground.

Oryx June 20th, 2012 11:34 AM

Okay, then I'm in!

I used to have a pool with a waterslide, I missss that.

Algo Fonix June 20th, 2012 11:45 AM

It's way too hot out today. Humid too. Thank you, baby Jesus, for cold beer.

Shiny Celebi June 20th, 2012 12:27 PM

Any kind of cold drink is good on a hot day, like cold soda or iced tea.

That reminds me, had a mixture of orange soda, strawberry fanta, and lemonade from the local McDonalds yesterday and it was simply to die for along with the smore pie and the angus bacon burger lol.

Cherrim June 20th, 2012 12:35 PM

I've never been so glad to live in the basement as I have this week. It was really cold in winter but it's still nice and cool down here despite the feels-like-36(-or-97-if-you-use-farenheit-did-i-even-spell-that-right) temperature outside. I think it was hotter the other day, though, when I actually had to go outside. XD;

I do not do well with heat. ;_; I hate this heat wave.

Oryx June 20th, 2012 12:41 PM

Erica I don't think even people that use fahrenheit can spell it...also Chrome just gave it a red squiggly line. Wat

Cherrim June 20th, 2012 12:48 PM

Yeah, if there's one reason I like Celsius, it's really easy to spell.

Although luckily there are multiple reasons I like Celsius. XD; I don't understand F at all. (Not even attempting to spell it again.)

Mr. X June 20th, 2012 12:51 PM

Kelvin is easier to spell.

Why don't we start using that instead?

Overlord Drakow June 20th, 2012 12:59 PM

ABSOLUTE ZERO! MINUS ONE-HUNDRED AND SEVENTY THREE DEGREES CELSIUS. Or is it -273? I can't remember now.

Livewire June 20th, 2012 1:02 PM

-170 Celsius sounds amazing right now not gonna lie.

/is crispy

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ June 20th, 2012 1:06 PM

It's -273, I believe.

The use of Kelvins would be totally epic.

Dr.Kotov June 20th, 2012 1:10 PM

-273.15 for accuracy, iirc.
Outside the laboratory, it isn't really practical, is it?

The heat's also forcing my appetite to disappear...utter exhaustion.

Oryx June 20th, 2012 1:22 PM

I'm going to the beach on Friday...I'm taking advantage of the beach this year. I've gone 3 times so far :3

Sweet Candace June 20th, 2012 1:24 PM

First day of summer...and it's a triple-digit day.

This just sounds like a bad omen for the summer that we're going to have more extremely hot days in the future (in fact, another triple-digit day is in the forecast for tomorrow...)

Cherrim June 20th, 2012 1:56 PM

I'm pretty sure the heat wave breaks on Friday. So hopefully this will be it for hot days... although that's unlikely, haha. ;_;

Captain Fabio June 20th, 2012 1:59 PM

It was lovely yesterday and today, but I think that it is meant to be horrible from tomorrow onwards... LAME.


Oryx June 20th, 2012 2:01 PM

The DCC is now officially christened with its first weather chat.

Captain Fabio June 20th, 2012 2:02 PM

IT WAS ALWAYS GOING TO HAPPEN.
But yeh, tonight through to Monday is rain. Oh I love English weather.


Hikamaru June 20th, 2012 2:04 PM

It's a nice day today, I love the work I do every Monday.

It's currently Winter here in my native Australia, maybe I seem to rage more during Winter.

Sylphiel June 20th, 2012 2:07 PM

I think I need to get out more, I just realized I haven't been paying much attention to the weather here lately. <_<

Aside from....sunny, cloudy, oh god it's raining...

Captain Fabio June 20th, 2012 2:11 PM

Haha, I am out everyday due to work, so I have to brave the weather, no matter what.


Oryx June 20th, 2012 2:21 PM

It's difficult to keep your sense of time over the summer....>_o

To be fair, we keep the DCCs seasonal and seasons are mainly defined by their weather, so if there's ever a time to remark on the weather it's the beginning of a DCC. Especially when it coincides with a heat wave in much of North America. :P

Nihilego June 20th, 2012 2:28 PM

Erica I refuse to be fair. The DCC is about weather and I hate this and everything is terrible. v_____v

Mr. X June 20th, 2012 2:39 PM

The one thing I hate about the sudden heat waves is that this is close to the 4th of july.

Makes everything to dry.

Can't shoot fireworks when stuff is to dry.

I WANT TO SHOOT OFF FIREWORKS THIS YEAR. (The high temps have stopped me the past couple of years.)

CarefulWetPaint June 20th, 2012 2:52 PM

I dont know what all you people are complaining about, its so cold I actually have to wear a jumper! Pfft complaining about it being hot when its this cold, you guys are insane!

What do you want to shoot fireworks for? Nvm I just remembered that the 4th of july actually means something in america.

Dr.Kotov June 20th, 2012 3:16 PM

Not long before July, the holidays feel fleeting and ephemeral. Partially blame social/noetic inactivity on the heat. I have a book list to cover, one I haven't even started. So much to do, such little time. And again, the blasted heat...

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ June 20th, 2012 4:41 PM

This summer I plan on watching anime and playing video games.

Not sure if we'll be seeing any fireworks on the 4th... my lazy parents sure didn't take us to see any last year :/ Which sucks because fireworks are sure pretty :)

Mew~ June 20th, 2012 4:52 PM

Heat waves? Sheesshh, we're apparently going to be stuck in heavy rain throughout the next few days. It's raining pretty hard right now. I've got Prom on Friday, so I don't wanna get wet before I get inside. ;-;

Livewire June 20th, 2012 5:18 PM

We shall bust out the booze to celebrate our new Smod and the Summer solstice!

I vote we sacrifice razor leaf in a Druid pagan ritual to appease the gods.

And it does make sense to talk about the weather.

TRIFORCE89 June 20th, 2012 7:06 PM

Today was apparently hotter than yesterday. I had to walk around outside a bit both days. But, I found today to be a lot more comfortable. Maybe it was more humid yesterday?

Netto Azure June 20th, 2012 7:30 PM

Damn, this heatwave is really getting to me lol. But thank goodness there's a cooling system here. xD

But anyways the last chat seemed to eand too shor compared to the other ones. But eh that's just me probz.

Anyways finally on the last quarter of Dragon Quest V. Underworld here we go~

Livewire June 20th, 2012 8:56 PM

I will have a shaken, not stirred martini then.

Annnnnd I got so tan/burnt at the pool today. :D

Oryx June 20th, 2012 9:02 PM

Wait no I changed my mind. Per irc discussion I want a rum and Dr. Pepper.

donavannj June 20th, 2012 10:07 PM

Dr. Pepper is amazing, son.

Also, I'm with Andy on that one, Live. You need to check yaself before ya wreck yaself.

Livewire June 20th, 2012 10:19 PM

It's called sunscreen with bronzor in it, silly gooses.

Morkula June 20th, 2012 10:29 PM

Even when I put sunscreen on I still wind up getting burnt on my face/neck/shoulders. No matter how strong or how much. Hence why I avoid the outdoors as much as possible. :P

Livewire June 20th, 2012 10:45 PM

I usually tan pretty well, thankfully. Which is great because I love the sun and I love being outdoors.

Oryx June 20th, 2012 11:11 PM

My friend ran into my mom and I the other day and asked why my mom is so tan and I'm so pale. We've been out in the sun the same amount :( I just don't tan well!!

Ivysaur June 21st, 2012 12:30 AM

I usually avoid the sun after I got burnt when I was 8 and had a very horrible week in a summer camp XD
I don't tan very well as a result, since I end up running to every shadow I see on the street XD

Captain Fabio June 21st, 2012 12:45 AM

I burn very easily. I remember when I was in London at an Expo and it was boiling. I was taking that many pictures, by the end of the day, I had my DSLR outline on my face... Wasn't my finest moment.


Netto Azure June 21st, 2012 1:28 AM

Ever since that sunburn in the beach, I have become not very fond of tans.

Captain Fabio June 21st, 2012 1:53 AM

Well the funny thing is, I burn really easily, but I don't tan, I go back to my pale, white skin. It is like... seriously unfair. Haha.

I have my parents Irish skin.


TRIFORCE89 June 21st, 2012 2:52 AM

I don't mind the heat. I kind of like it. I'm fine with heat, but not humidity. And I don't like if it makes me sweat though. I haven't been outside for extended periods of time the last couple of days, only like 20 minutes or so. And indoors I have air conditioning, so it hasn't bugged me. Better than the freezing cold at least.

When I go to the beach, I tend to get burned, if I get burned, on my shoulders and my face (like ears). Not usually enough to peel though, just hot to the touch for a day or two. I usually cover myself up pretty well in some high number sunscreen. I tend to spend a lot of time in the water, so my face and shoulders tend to be exposed and I take to longer to put more lotion on. XD You'd think Mediterranean skin would be some kind of protection, but no.

CarefulWetPaint June 21st, 2012 2:54 AM

Has this become the staff DCC or what!

I love the sun though, surfing is definitely the best thing to do when the suns out! Mustnt forget to put the sunscreen and zinc on though! Sun cancer isnt fun :O

Captain Fabio June 21st, 2012 2:58 AM

I don't mind the heat at all, even though I burn, but the only time it gets horrible for me, is when it is humid at night. I can't sleep if it is warm and it sucks so much! :(


Her June 21st, 2012 3:19 AM

Bleh, I prefer the embrace of the cold rather than the hug of heat that never seems to let go. I can't do anything while I'm hot; I just collapse and languish for hours :(

Kura June 21st, 2012 3:46 AM

;_; I'm usually always cold or cool ;o; rarely hot.. ;_; it sucks ;O;

:C And I loled at this thread's title.. ;_; In the UK though, it's certainly the case.. >_> it's still cold and rainy here..

Captain Fabio June 21st, 2012 3:55 AM

It is a good thing I am a human radiator, so 'cold' weather is lovely for me! :3

"Summer in the UK" is a good example of an oxymoron.

Kura June 21st, 2012 4:20 AM

Yeah I just came back inside from grabbing some lunch and I am so cold I have a throw wrapped around me at my desk at work here ;__;

Captain Fabio June 21st, 2012 4:39 AM

Pfffft.
This weather is nothing, Kura. Christmas time is worse; if it isn't sleet, it is rain! >:3


Elite Overlord LeSabre™ June 21st, 2012 4:44 AM

I know by the end of the week it's supposed to be significantly cooler than it is today... I don't know if it's made up its mind whether it wants to be early spring or the middle of winter...

You realize you're talking to a Canadian right? Your winters are just dreary. >_> Your summers for the most part, however, feel like your winters with maybe slightly more brightness during the day. >__>

Sweet Candace June 21st, 2012 6:38 AM

The weather isn't going to get much cooler this week. Today's another triple-digit day, while Friday and Saturday are mid-to-high 80's and really humid.

Algo Fonix June 21st, 2012 7:33 AM

Just got in from mowing the lawn. I figured 10 was a good time to do it, but it was already hot.

Give me Winter again. I don't have to deal with allergies in the Winter either. It's a total win-win.

Shining Raichu June 21st, 2012 8:07 AM

Ideal weather is weather we don't ever mention or speak about.

Livewire June 21st, 2012 8:09 AM

But how else will we get the DCC up to a bajillion posts? :<

Shiny Celebi June 21st, 2012 8:15 AM

I got sunburned at the beach last weekend :/

Esper June 21st, 2012 8:19 AM

I'm going to Pride in San Francisco this weekend and it's supposed to reach into the mid 60s.

"The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." Tourists never expect this.

CarefulWetPaint June 21st, 2012 5:26 PM

Is 60 even cold? Its like 10 degree C where I live and its cold as hell.

Are you excited for PRIDE? I think that'll be fun wont it!

10 Degrees celcius is warm for me. Yet again I'm used to -30 to -40 degrees Celcius during the winter so. People saying they're cold need to understand a true Canadian winter ;)

My town has a pride festival, and it'll be the first time I've ever attended such an event. I'm pretty excited, but it's hard to put myself out there.

droomph June 21st, 2012 6:55 PM

Gawd i feel stupid and insignificant

I think 50 F is cold as hell but I can handle anything up till a bit below freezing. Comes from me playing in the snow with bare hands.

and whats a pride parade i live near sf but i havent heard of anything like that

I've never been to a Pride Parade and I'm not sure I ever will. :s It just doesn't seem like the kind of atmosphere I'd ever like. (I don't do well around super flamboyancy.)

10 degrees sounds wonderful, honestly. I'll take it over 30 degrees any day. XD;

Livewire June 21st, 2012 7:24 PM

I think this calls for the second coming of the gaga head.

Shiny Celebi June 21st, 2012 7:33 PM

Gaga head? I remember that actually lol.

droomph June 21st, 2012 8:01 PM

oh gawd that was horrible.

I was wondering what that was. Especially because it happened around Larry day.

Shiny Celebi June 21st, 2012 8:11 PM

It was kinda funny once I realized it was Lady Gaga( I didnt recongnise her at first)

CarefulWetPaint June 21st, 2012 9:00 PM

What gaga head? I dont get it? Did I miss the joke??

Yeah 10 C isnt jumper weather yet its still fairly cold though :(

Oryx June 21st, 2012 9:10 PM

dear god
no
leave it dead
nick are you out of your mind
/lost the ability to grammar

droomph June 21st, 2012 9:33 PM

@cwp you missed it. April fools. And thank god because Larry.

Oryx June 21st, 2012 10:19 PM

Dude it was only like 3 months ago. I don't think you're allowed to use that phrase until it's been at least a year.

Luck June 21st, 2012 11:32 PM

Dude, you totally can. You can say that if something big happened. April Fools sucked though, so it still didn't count with Pokebok and Lady Gaga lol. Also thanks Toujours for unintentionally reminding me to check out Baio.

On another note, I feel like tearing my face off whenever I get ready for a sneeze but I don't sneeze at all. I don't experience such anguish on a regular basis.

Oryx June 21st, 2012 11:37 PM

Wait what did I do? What's Baio? >_o?

Treecko June 21st, 2012 11:51 PM

Oh hey a new DCC.

You can totally use that phrase now, it's only been 2 and a half months but it feels like it's been 6 months. And it feels 6 months since I joined PC.

Luck June 21st, 2012 11:56 PM

Baio is the bassist from Vampire Weekend. He's making and releasing his own music.

Nothing to worry about though, since
Spoiler:
the song sucked.

Captain Fabio June 21st, 2012 11:58 PM

I never liked Vampire Weekend; that type of music just ends up annoying me. Haha.


Oryx June 22nd, 2012 12:03 AM

Oh I love Vampire Weekend!! Idk how I reminded you of them though but okay. :3

Luck June 22nd, 2012 12:04 AM

Nothin' wrong with that. I was the exact same way in the beginning but they grew on me. They're not the best music I have by a large margin, that'd probably go to Two Door Cinema Club and The Apples In Stereo, but I still like them a lot.

If you don't like them then we got a problem Fabio >:(

lol Toujours you said in a previous DCC that you loved Vampire Weekend. That's how you made me remember.

Treecko June 22nd, 2012 12:08 AM

Vampire Weekend, are okay, don't know alot of their songs though. I really like Two Door Cinema Club, they're fantastic.

Oryx June 22nd, 2012 12:09 AM

HI LUCK I STILL LOVE VAMPIRE WEEKEND


:333

Captain Fabio June 22nd, 2012 12:12 AM

Haha. But I like metal, Luck. I love my heavy riffs, guitar filled solos and heavy, mental drums. :D


Luck June 22nd, 2012 12:13 AM

WHAT'S UP TOUJOURS YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE NOT THE SAME THING AT ALL

You have awesome taste AWSquared :3 You should listen to Neutral Milk Hotel as well.

It's so embarrassing saying their name out loud ._.

I like Metal too, but it's so hard finding quality metal music nowadays :C
It's all awful stuff like Black Veil Brides or Blood On The Dance Floor. Although tbh, I don't really like Metallica either because their songs challenge epics in terms of length.

Captain Fabio June 22nd, 2012 12:27 AM

I hear you! :(
But check out this band.


They aren't new, but I don't know many people who know them! D:
If you want me to recommend bands, old and new, I can! I did run a radio show for 4 years, so needed to keep it new and fresh! XD

That's such a weird name. I can take most metal. I agree that most of today's metal artists suck compared to some older ones.
