    Don't forget to watch Fox News, put a picture of Glenn Beck on your refrigerator, give your children .45s for Christmas, and complain about Obama.

    I got way too into badminton when our class did it in P.E. in high school. That and dodgeball was way too much fun.

    Cross-country is safe, I didn't say anything about extreme speed cliff jumping.
    Anyhow, snow can be soft. More often than broken bones it can give you some nasty scrapes, thats all. Im surprised though, you're so fond of snow, right?

    Snow may be soft, but trees at 40 mph aren't.

    Deal. I'll bring the multiseed pretzels if you take care of those little mini pizzas, then when we've eaten too much we can use your medical connections to get our stomachs pumped. We'll live like royalty.

    I've heard some trees can get up to 80mph if the road conditions are right .

    40 mph is nothing.
    I have one of these, and 50 is more realistic:
    Spoiler warning:

    I never said I could ride it, mind you.

    I don't plan on having any children, but I did get a rifle for Christmas once. It's now my little half-sister's. Oh, and I told you guys some kids name. Obama's new healthcare bill has significantly upped the penalties for such things. To hell with Comodo, if I disappear it's because I was fined thousands of dollars that I can't pay.

    Is this adequate enough?

    Yes. I adore snow. I do not adore the idea of essentially hydroplaning across it at speeds higher than I can run.

    This. I'm not even especially fond of driving at 40mph, with a big steel skeleton around me to protect me from trees.

    I played badminton a few years ago, we got a net and set it up in my back garden, fun times.

    Who says we need connections? I can insert nasogastric tubes, and I have a vacuum cleaner right here for suction.

    We also need ridiculous amounts of nachos. Then we can send pictures of them to Evans.

    This is nothing.

    There have been days during which I gave up even trying to keep track of the hangout. I'd post one response and then have two or three pages to read through.

    And I sort of miss the IRC chat. Even though I mostly just talked to Cola.
