One time when I was in the fifth grade, I was in North Manchester. It started looking like it was going to storm pretty hard, and it did. Eventually the sky turned green, which had me pretty scared. It also started hailing. We all know that these are definitely not things you want to see if you don't want to be in a tornado. Oh yeah, the sirens also went off. No tornado came to that house though. There was one in the area though. I remember asking my grandpa what we were gonna do if a tornado came, since their house didn't have a basement. He said, "you go into the little bathroom in the middle of the house, sit down on the toliet, bend over, and kiss your ass goodbye."

St. Anky · 05-06-2004, 03:27 PM

yeah, they're badass.

Pliedes · 05-06-2004, 03:49 PM

I'm up for a little storm-chaser action this summer if anyone wants to join me. I think Orgazmo and Ugly have done a little in the past.

Btw, Titan is going to die in a tornado.

storm-chasing would be so fucking cool... when i was a little kid i always wanted to be like, a professional storm-chaser/meterologist type person. the idea has sort of faded since then, but i still think storms are cool as hell.. i need to do that sometime.

it's one of those things where you'd have to be with a few people in order to keep your sanity.. if i was alone during a bad storm, i'd probably die of sheer terror.

The Tornadoes after they discovered the wonders of heroin.

speaking of storms, i just went out to lock up my car and roll the windows up (gosh it was freaking hot today), and i saw a whole bunch of lightning in the distance, and heard some pretty nasty thunder. so i came inside to check it out on good ol' weather.com ... yeah, we've got a severe thunderstorm watch. hooray!

and it is now a WARNING.. yeah i'm really way too excited.

I hear the thunder as we speak.

Zelart · 05-07-2004, 12:23 AM

Me too. I also wanted to be a storm chaser.

underwater · 05-07-2004, 12:32 AM

okay. i'm severely disappointed. it appears as though the storm, as is custom with storms around here, merely skimmed warsaw... dammit.

too bad it didn't carry you away

Orgazmo · 05-07-2004, 01:03 AM

Since many of us seem to carry a common interest of storms, perhaps we could orchestrate the next Nubblies Contest in such a manner that the best picture from a storm taken by a Nubblite (and perhaps their partner in chasing) would merit a victory...

Just a thought.

I love that idea, we should have to include some sort of rule that you must have a picture of something in Warsaw along with the storm that way it can be verified the picture was not jewwed from the internet.

Tonight was very gay I sat on my back porch with great anticipation at the storm was approaching. Only for it to peter out and go north and west of us.

underwater · 05-07-2004, 02:00 AM

ooooooooh that would be good... summer is here, and with it comes storms and FREE TIME to take pictures of them. perfect timing.

i say you do it. i might even try to contribute to that.. fun.

Niger Angelus · 05-07-2004, 08:30 AM

On my way to work I was stopped by a train, only then to be caught in terrential downpour. Yeah, it sucked.

silver and cold · 05-07-2004, 05:28 PM

I love the idea of making that a Nubblies Contest. I was really up for the storm lastnight and today, both disappointed me greatly. Oh well, there will be more...

Pliedes · 05-09-2004, 02:55 AM

Why don't we make this a video thing instead of a photo thing. Storms will provide quite the footage, and it'll ensure authenticity.

Orgazmo · 05-09-2004, 03:21 AM

Making it a video thing would greatly reduce the number of participants. I think we could make it a picture thing & guarantee authenticity if we simply force the users to submit 3+ pictures with each batch...each having similar landscape and colors...and at least one having something identifiable in it (preferably the user themself). I'll make an official post about it thus signifying the beginning of the contest sometime...probably tomorrow.

yardobeef · 05-21-2004, 05:37 AM

i just read this after missing probably the most intense storm to pass this summer, just my fucking luck, i will remember to take some pics next time though. good idea.

underwater · 05-22-2004, 02:11 PM

what?? where the heck are you at??

i get so pissed off in warsaw when it comes to storms because seriously.. all they've done this year is taunt us.

yardobeef · 05-22-2004, 02:57 PM

i live in portage, bout 2 minutes from gary

St. Anky · 05-23-2004, 05:47 PM

this is gettin crazy... 80 tornados in Illinois...

and now its heading for us... I'll be on later, I'm about to duck tape my balls to my ass.

underwater · 05-24-2004, 12:54 AM

where did it GO... i was outside at a soccer game right about the time those tornadoes should've hit us.... yeah, it rained buckets, and there was some lightning... but not enough to even cancel the damn game!

i HATE indiana weather.

quick edit about ten minutes after i wrote the original post: i hear fucking thunder.
