So far I haven't stepped foot outside, and I don't intend to, it's bloody freezing.

YorkeDaddy 12-11-2016 08:02 AM

There's 6 inches of snow on the ground so my total for today is gonna be very low

Seriously? I didn't think whatever boring ass corn farm state you lived in got that much snow.

Good excuse to play HS all day.

Key 12-11-2016 09:59 AM

Is this a joke?

Onlymac 12-11-2016 10:05 AM

Cleaned snow off today myself... Part of living in a snow belt..

The Batlord 12-11-2016 10:05 AM

Way too ****ing much. *shivers*

Goofle 12-11-2016 10:06 AM

I did a 5 hour shift at a rugby match, almost all of which was spent outside. I guess that's a good score.

Trollheart 12-11-2016 10:09 AM

There's an outside?? :eek:

And no, before someone makes the suggestion, this is not my sock puppet account...

I'm having a flu, so I guess I'll be staying inside today

I've been sick and in bed for about a week. In the same boat.

Blank. 12-11-2016 10:35 AM

No outside. It's cold out. I may go for a run later so that'll be twenty minutes, but I will probably say **** it and go for a run on the treadmill at the YMCA.

between an hour/an hour and a half, it was my day off today and i did the bare minimum which most people would probably find relaxing but it stressed me out and i got cabin fever so i had to go for a walk, i usually spend about 6 hours minimum out of the house on my days off but i just didn't feel up to it today

Mr. Charlie 01-25-2017 12:22 PM

Depends on the day and the season. On a work day, nine, ten hours. On a day off, maybe an hour or two. But in the summer I'm out all day every day. The Sun and I are pretty close.

Mindfulness 07-17-2017 04:58 PM

ive been trying to make the most of the summer, been playing basketball outside for around 15-30 minutes at a time. im only sticking with the threads that im subscribed to, and ill just try to sub to more threads, tat way ill know if someone types back.
to leave off from when i last posted in this thread, i ended up going hiking and walking at the beach in the winter to get outside. this rural life is harder than i thought. no friends in a small town of 5300 :/


thats why i post so much online, mainly on boxden. this site is boring as ****. this is a small town website, but peaceful i guess.

Mondo Bungle 07-17-2017 05:31 PM

see I thought outside was a myth

Chiomara 07-17-2017 06:03 PM

Who needs to go outside when you can watch endless horrifying documentaries on rare medical conditions on youtube in the dark while eating stale tortillas?

I used to spend roughly four hours laying outside in the grass every night, but I'd get eaten alive by bugs so I stopped.

What some use as a medieval form of execution, you use to relax. wtf

What can I say, I love to suffer and make things difficult for myself!

Janszoon 07-17-2017 09:28 PM

Outside of what?

Zhanteimi 07-18-2017 04:36 AM

Too fucking long. Had to walk home when someone jumped in front of my train.

Dylstew 07-18-2017 11:59 AM

None. The post above is an example of some of the reasons why it's better this way.

The Batlord 07-18-2017 12:44 PM

About an hour and a half of mulching the front yard until it started raining. Why the **** do people want bigass yards with lots of plants? Everything that goes into maintaining them is not at all worth it.

Janszoon 07-18-2017 04:10 PM

Probably well over a thousand seconds today.

MicShazam 07-18-2017 04:44 PM

2-2½ hour long walk that included a stroll through the city cemetary (I take pictures of gravestones and trees and such. I like old moss covered stones and that kind of thing. It's weird, I know), a quick look into the only record store left in town and a stroll down midtown. The rest of the day, I've been more of a couch potato, watching Groundhog Day and playing Wolfenstein 3D: Spear of Destiny.

Chiomara 07-18-2017 04:50 PM

Cemetery walks are always nice. Do you ever look for tombstones with interesting names or anything like that?

I've spent maybe 5 seconds outside today because I couldn't find my sunscreen.

I do look at the inscriptions sometimes. It's interesting to see very old graves with names that aren't used much anymore, or ways of writing things that aren't used anymore. Very old graves for big shot merchants and other business owners tend to have some fancy writing and give an impression that someone very important died. These days, I think you have to be a mayor or something to get a grave like that!

What I really look for is more interestingly shaped gravestones, old statues and complex textures that I can photograph up close and use in Photoshop later (moss covered marble, cracked stones, rusty old patterned metal fences, etc.) There's also a lot of really beautiful, big trees of many different kinds in this cemetery. I have photos of them from all seasons. It can look extremely interesting during fall season especially.

No need for sunscreen in Denmark right now. The last few days have been a bit chilly, even. Danish summer often sucks.

I'd like to see some of the photos if you have them online anywhere! In some parts of the south around here we have big giant gnarled trees dripping with spanish moss. I love the smell of moss.
And I assume anyone with enough money could have a statue for their grave commissioned before dying. Have you seen this one? It was commissioned by a widow for her husband's grave:



And do they let you wander around cemeteries at night where you live? Over here you'll often get hassled by the security guard if you do.

The Batlord 07-18-2017 05:32 PM

I legit checked out the grave's ass when I clicked the spoiler button and now I feel like an idiot.

That is one amazing tombstone! I want one of those! And yeah, I agree on moss. I love fall/winter forests when there's no snow, but lots of moss, winter berries and mushrooms. There's a very special smell and atmosphere in a forest during that time.

I put some photos in an imgur album here:

MichaelJosefsen's albums - Imgur

My photograph folders on my PC are a nightmarish mess. I just realized I've never sorted any of it, so it's just gigabytes of files with names like DSC03929 and other such highly descriptive and useful names :banghead:
It would take hours to sort through it all and delete all the bad pics.

I did find a few that were allright and put them online, but I hope I've got some better stuff hidden in that pile. I know how amazing the cemetary can look in fall, but I haven't really captured it well yet.
I just have an old cellphone with a camera in, not an actual camera. Plus my framing is... questionable... :laughing:

I've never actually gone in there during the night, but I'm pretty sure they don't lock it and there's no guards. I don't think any Danish cemetaries have guards. Even if they lock the gate, the stone fences are barely waist high at one side of the area, so going in there would be no problem.

Mindfulness 07-19-2017 09:30 AM

went outside to take the trash out to the place where trash goes. then i decided to walk around the other building, and i got to see how hot it was so far.

i think it took about 10 mins overall :/ i dont have my car today, i think i would have went to the park to shoot some hoops if i i had it but its getting the oil changed and hopefully the a/c fixed :)
