    Default Do you like rain?

    How about torrential downpours that flood most of the state and also like to take bridges out on dates and never bring them home?!

    there used to be a bridge here


    Last year it did the same thing and I complained like a mothersmurfer about how my house was going to become a houseboat. Well this year my whole smurfing state is going to become a collection of little islands. We can be like Fiji or something and everyone can be partially naked. EXCEPT THEY GET SUNLIGHT IN FIJI.

    Side story -- my aunt works for firecom which is the people you talk to when you call your emergency number anyway she can't get to work to help rescue all the idiots that crash their cars or the poor people who are hit by the idiots.

    Side side story -- I saw a car under water up to its windscreen off the side of the highway. Stupid p platers. Can't drive for blah blah (this is funny because I am a p plater. See I poke fun at myself in a roundabout way and you all laugh. It's a good technique).

    tl;dr smurf you sunshine coast (and queensland)
    oh yeah topic is about rain if you didn't realise

    My city had a smurftastic flood about 3 years ago that basically ruined the whole downtown and whatnot.

    Then the national news crew came to film it and brought their kayaks to kayak down Main Street. What fun

    Kayaking sounds like a good time. But apparently you can drown and that's not cool kids.

    Either side of the highway today looked like lakes. Why are there lakes without names guys?

    Side topic -- if you woke up to find a lake next to your house what would you call it?

    Did you intentionally flip that photo (or find one taken from that direction) just so the water was on the right side? Because it's wrong for us east coasters. Although I suppose it won't matter when our towns become islands.

    Not all pictures have to be taken from the South, Dak. O_O

    North is second only to east as a direction. You would do well to learn this, good sir. But you can't deny that it would be hard to orient yourself.

    P platers are Provisional Platers! They have restricted licenses because teenagers obviously don't know how to drive. I currently have restrictions on the type of cars I can drive and my blood-alcohol limit and a reduced number of penalty points. The P1 license also has a curfew and passenger limits. Basically, it's the failed attempt to keep people safe.

    EDIT: This is where my aunt lives.

    I love the rain, but I'm from the Pacific Northwest so I'm used to it.

    Lol, that just sounds ridiculous. Can you not drive cars with large engines?

    No, unless it's a diesel.

    Well

    not 'legally'



    Off topic banter anyway, point is that there's so much rain. If I could water bend, you guys would be so smurfed.

    But the water is all the way down under. I think I'm quite safe in my dry California.

    Man I love rain! Where I grew up it hardly ever rained so I felt deprived. So when it did I was super ecstatic. So now if it starts a good rain i grab my umbrella and rainboots and go hop in puddles!

    Now I know which state to target first with my killer tidal wave of water bending. There is a lot of water. I am basically looking at the ocean when I look outside my door.
