            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 have enough to accommodate 48" (with enough training), or even more.

    If it’s not snowing, it’s still not green. It’s just grey. Grey is worse because at least the snow is pretty.

        I figured it was more about fresh snow. :) fresh snow in the city is at least white, and pretty in a … Chaotic sense.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

            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.

    Im not in a “cold” climate, but its the pacific northwest. It gets chilly this time of year. People still dream of white Christmases. Its the idealized Christmas.

    Judging from the answers, it seems like no. And really, most people I know that live up north go somewhere warm in January or February, so get the escape then. I’m 45 and two winters ago I had my first white Christmas. And let me tell you, it was freaking MAGIC. We got like a foot to two feet depending where you were on the property. We were exposed to someone with Covid on Christmas Eve so for the next week we were sequestered away, with food and drinks and a beautiful winter wonderland. None of us ended up with covid but my daughters best friends grandfather is immunocompromised so we’re extra careful. We made a slide off the deck, walked in the woods behind the house, lounged around, did puzzles and read books, and just generally had the most peaceful and relaxed time.

    I’ve always lived in warm places, and the Pacific Northwest now, so for me, snow is the most magic thing in the world.
