CoastalWx Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Man watching the OKC area last night makes me want to try and chase at some point down the road. I'm so done with our bullsh*t convection. It's like comparing drizzle to a downpour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Ugh, winter can't come soon enough. You live in some kinda painful reality if you're saying this in the beginning of May You could conceivable not be in any such realm for 6 month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only gentle suggestion might be to step away from the board or post less frequently until autumn if they don't enjoy summer fanfare , food and frolic I actually agree with this to good extent... Buuut, you, your self, have made posts suggesting you resent the mere implication of labeling psychological pathologies - when the perception of that is clear. So, now you know how it feels to be on the receiving end of it... You gotta understand, this is the public. It's not really moderated, not in any refereed sense of it anyway. It's all about cackling rabble, with some members bit more advanced ... but certainly, S.A.D. unstable. Haha. Seriously though, seasonal affective disorder flames individual in spring and summer, too. Many think it's a winter thing - it's not. It's a "seasonal" thing. Go to Mayo clinic's online material; it's all there in refereed essays. This site, ...particularly our New England sub-forum (my theory) has become dominated by antic-winter SAD types. These are folks that actually dread the lengthening days, higher sun angles, and warm weather, and it's all clinically defined. And there are Mets using this site clearly in this ilk. Hell. ... they may have even suffered the sweat and tears of Met degrees because of their condition, too. I know of one on-camera Met who's pretty well known, that really can't stand summer -- not saying any of this to "rag" on anyone. But this site is a mixing bastion for that mentality and others, so you get what you pay for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they get upset about is when someone posts something that you think is anti-summer. You get all jacked about it. There is a good shot of a backdoor tomorrow into Saturday. Such is life.

powderfreak Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Well he is also playing the victim though. People can talk all they want about weather, but the egregious calls for something that basically won't happen are over the top. It's the hyperbole rhetoric (see exaggeration, overstatement, embellishment, excess, overkill) that gets folks to respond to his posts, followed by the "Will is being mean to me" or "What did I do to deserve this piggy pile" type act. People enjoy discussing weather but in a sensible manner that doesn't include embellishment just for the sake of trying to make temperatures sound exciting.

Typhoon Tip Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Picked up my first dog today at a shelter in Salem. Lab Hound mix. Meet Bailey. NIce! I want to get a dog, too ... honestly I don't know if I trust myself. I once forgot to put water in my parent's cat's water bowl, and only when she was almost emaciated to death sitting by the dusty dry bowl barely mustering the energy to squeak chirpy meow did light dawn.. Luckily, she survived my stupidity ... I never saw a cat drink so much water, wow. That event made me so guilty feeling. I don't think I'm the right guy for a pet. But I've always been partial to Jack Russell terriers.. I live alone; not sure what I would do about going to work ... particularly in the winters. I think owning a pet has to be taken very seriously, so if there is any doubt, don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
