This is where we complain about things we have no control over.

I'm cursing the tilt of the Earth's axis for messing with time.

    We have control over it. We created daylight savings time...which makes it darker earlier, because we're retarded.

    winter is the best

    cold
    darkness
    a general stillness and lack of joy just not found during the summer months

    The earth is only so large. The whole planet can't be in sunlight all the time.

    But yeah early darkness kind of sucks sometimes.

    winter is nice in places where winter actually exists

    here in seattle we have the happy medium, which is nonstop crappy rain and sometimes it snows like an inch and everyone freaks out because they've never seen snow before.

    That might be the problem. Georgia winters are characterized by constant rain.

    Man, I'm glad I don't have any real seasonal affective disorder, because it's bad enough as it is. My friend's dad has a huge sunlamp for the winter that he faces towards himself for a while when it's dark like this. Some old psychiatrist must have prescribed that for him, haha.

    You better have to shovel a driveway all winter. Otherwise, you eat a dick.

    However, the ring will never leave your finger, and you will be unable to ever describe to another living person what you see.

    I used to spend every summer very north in Norway. The mountains we drove over allowed us to go out and play in the snow and then when we reached Melbu (where my family lives), there would sometimes be daylight all throughout the night.

    it was neat

    also rain is awesome. It's basically dark and rainy here every hour of every day right now and it's apparently making some people feel depressed

    I am as happy as a clam about it, though
