No
I live in the north of Sweden. I always hope for a white Christmas. If there’s no snow, it’s so dark, and gloomy. A few hours of sunlight in a day. No snow usually means it’s cold enough for rain and a little bit of snow, but also warm enough to melt it to turn it into slush.
So definitely, we always hope for a crisp, snowy Christmas. Every year. More opportunities for outdoor activities then, too.
No.
We get around 48" per year. I love this shit.
I wish I got 48" every year 😔
Or at least like 2", once
… that’s what she said…
I’m so sorry.
That was the intention, haha
I overthought this and wondered if a 48" thing can really go all the way in, but I was surprised to know that “The average erect penis is longer than the average vagina. ” and that it’s not really possible to ‘break through’ the cervix and go further.
Even ignoring girth, it’d probably be very painful for her (without training, I suppose) if someone just rams their 40" into her.
I mean even if it was 48" in total yearly, that’d be 8 6-inchers or 9 5-inchers. I’d be fine with that :p
And I forgot that large loads can go by the back entrance. XD
It’s probably has enough to accommodate 48" (with enough training), or even more.
2 inchers that last one thrust are very easy to find on lemmy
No, a green Christmas would be extremely concerning
Shrek disagrees
I live in a northern country with cold winters. The alternative to “white Christmas” is really an icy or wet Christmas. Green would not even cross my mind.
And certainly I prefer snow over sleet or black ice on the roads.
i mean, australia we have summer christmas and it’s kinda amazing… new years and christmas parties and festivals outside are amazing
If it’s not snowing, it’s still not green. It’s just grey. Grey is worse because at least the snow is pretty.
Snow becomes pretty ugly pretty quick, at least in cities.
Grey christmas it is, every year.
I figured it was more about fresh snow. :) fresh snow in the city is at least white, and pretty in a … Chaotic sense.

Depends on the person. It sometimes gets into the negative double digits F where I live. Its forecasted to snow around Christmas and I’m hyped as fuck.
I used to live further North and I miss the snow. We still get some here, but it typically melts off within a week or two.
No, because snow is nice and beautiful. The problem is, we don’t get a white christmas (or have snow for most of the winter) every year, because where I live we mostly either get wet warm winds which lead to rain or we get cold dry winds which just lead to cold days without snow.
Never. Christmas time should be cold af, dark for most if not all of the day, and in deep snow.
No. Give me snow. Give me snow year round.
No way. Keep your heat, I’ll be snowboarding.
We can like snow in December. Hate it until next december. We will have brown Christmases some years, and there is a sense of disappointment over it.
Last year I had the all you can eat mexican buffet on Christmas eve. I ended up having a “brown Christmas.”
We live in cold climates because we like cold climates. 😉
This; it’s only 3 months out of the year (well, at least the snow) and I like that there’s variety in my year.
Being an adult also means I get to choose when I go out, now, so the cold/snow bothers me even less.
But, like you said, I also live here because I like snow.
Yup. Though I do understand many people can’t afford to move, most that I know wouldn’t want to even if they could.
I spent Christmas one time in Australia. It was surreal. I don’t think I’d ever get used to that, so, not me.
I often wonder if people who live in Australia feel a similar way considering how Christmas time is typically depicted.
Aussie here, to me xmas = summer time. Xmas movies always felt irrelevant, and the idea of Santa wearing all his gear is mental when it’s often 40C+ and humid af.
Being cold would feel alien that time of year, even more so if it snowed because that doesn’t happen in 99% of the country regardless of the time of year.
also i’ve told some US friends about my new years plans: outdoors, festival, parties kinda thing… they’re blown away by how amazing it sounds for this particular period
Yeah. Sitting by the pool in 25c watching the kids have a swim
I did spend 10 years in northern England from 2000 and a cold possibly white Christmas took ages to get used to
actually the closest thing i think we could probably say to americans is: our christmas is like 4th of july… but it’s the whole christmas and new years… we get 4th of july holiday for a whole month or more
Lol yup, total opposite! Plus the prevalence of North American/Hollywood movies/shows usually depict snowy Christmas.
