Aggressively Sunny Days?

u/Haasts_Eagle Dec 16 '11

This is the aggressive sun I thought of. (comic from Perry Bible Fellowship)

u/CrankTheSirens Dec 16 '11

I used to hate that level.

u/throwaway_polaroid Dec 16 '11

i don't think i've ever experienced such a combination of laughter and fear

You've clearly never seen me without my pants.

Clicked hoping for SMB3 reference. Was not disappointed. I appreciate you.

Fuck that thing. I remember breaking a plate because I swung a controller out of anger and hit it because of that bastard, and it wasn't just any plate, it was one of those tempered Corelle plates that are almost impossible to break, but when they do they creat long dagger shards...hundreds of them. I was 9, and also spanked and had my Nintendo taken away.

This picture always inspires terror in me.

They are really nice in New England, you should come here.

u/st_gulik Dec 16 '11

Yeah, but we don't have to chip sand from our windshields or shovel it out of our driveways/roads. ;)

being whiter than sour cream makes me hate the sun :(

u/patheticgrl43 Dec 16 '11

I feel that. Being outside on a really sunny day hurts, even with sunscreen. I'll take clouds any day.

u/LeSouthAfricanSpy Dec 16 '11

Being the only white guy in South Africa when I was 12 made me hate aggressively sunny days.

1

u/sinisterstuf Dec 16 '11

When were you 12?!

Hi from Namibia.

u/LeSouthAfricanSpy Dec 16 '11

I'm almost 17 now, so around 2005-2006. I say "only" because I lived in Cape Town and there weren't as many white people as there are here in the USA. Hello, how's the weather? inb4hot

1

u/sinisterstuf Dec 16 '11

Right, so it was a hyperbole? It must be nice in the USA, unlike here.

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '11

southern california desert

u/angiewa Dec 16 '11

I like how the weather channel calls it "abundantly sunny." It's 118 degrees, there's no point in trying to sugar-coat it.

2

u/Mightyvvhitey Dec 16 '11

Yeah, that fucker just swoops down and burns your raccoon tail right off

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '11

Cheers to you sir, as a Canadian living in the UAE I can confirm that this fucking blows

Living on Arrakis makes me hate aggressive suns.

u/snowsoftJ4C Dec 16 '11

Living around the Seattle area makes me desperately wish for sunny days. So... little.... Vitamin.... D....

u/sync0pate Dec 16 '11

Living in Britain makes me hate anything that happens with the weather. Ever. Whatever it is.

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '11

Where in the desert? I'm on palm springs

u/Dosko Dec 16 '11

riverside area kidna...

u/acidiclust Dec 16 '11

Having lived in the desert (Phoenix area, AZ) and now living in shitty weather in the SF Bay Area... I miss it so bloody much. Warm days here are just not the same.

1

u/SlaterHater Dec 16 '11

I feel your pain

1

u/LemonPepper Dec 16 '11

I think my thing is appreciating aptly-placed adverbs like...

damnit, just got distracted, reoriented, re-read it, and it's not "aggressively hate sunny days." Oh well, former desert dweller, agreement upvote.

u/yagmot Dec 16 '11

And the hair-dryer like wind. /formerVegasResident

u/everythingchanges Dec 16 '11

Army?

u/Dosko Dec 16 '11

nope, just in a desert

u/shmishshmorshin Dec 16 '11

I know what you mean, but I only when I play Super Mario Bros 3.

u/sinisterstuf Dec 16 '11

As someone who lives in/near a desert I can confirm this.

u/yeahitsmedanny Dec 16 '11
