Funny thing is in our temperate zone the whole festive christmas time is in autumn and christmas itself is at the beginning of winter. Why not move christmas to end of February or so?
Thanks! Turned out it wasn't, though. Got Legionaire's disease and spent most of my birthday groaning, sleeping or groaning on the toilet. Not a big fan of being 41 so far..

It's not January yet! Maybe I'll diet between now and then...
I did that as well, diet of mostly cheese though
That's confusing
I've been dieting for 3 weeks since Christmas
Same. Not a healthy diet, but a diet none the less.
Nothing I have ever seen will ever top this image describing the year: https://daysuntilspring.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/81321947_3096760897007337_1939866200221679616_n.jpg
Unless you hate Christmas, then it's a sudden bucket of suck, then a release back into those lovely routines and coping mechanisms.
Hmm. I might be a little broken though. Don't be like me, enjoy your Christmasses!
Edit: Actually, it's not so sudden, it's between a 3 and 12 month to Christmas each year, depending on your age/ access to advertising.
Who doesn't enjoy our annual, third of a year long Christmas-gasm!?
No don't answer that, I know what you mean:-P.
sounds like northeastern United States. As soon as I had enough money I moved to the tropics. No more gloomy 6 months every year. I couldn't bear it.
Northeastern USA is extremely cold compared to temperate Europe.
Though that is nothing compared to north midwestern states, brrr... did you know that at some point, the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales converge? :-P
I took your fun fact to a search engine and learned something new today 😄
The Fahrenheit and Celsius scales converge at -40°.
The formula used to convert Celsius(C) into Fahrenheit(F) is: F = 9 5 × C + 32.

Read the rules! No spoilers in this sub!
I don't see anything about spoilers so ... Bruce Wayne is Batman.
dammit you just ruined Batman for me. I swear I was gonna get around to watching it eventually.
You are the kind of guy who reads sources!!! You read the rules because I told you so? What else do you do? Eat little children??
So... Santa still exists here?
Wym?
No spoilers exist here and it's a Christmas themed post - surely Santa was the original spoiler!?
That woooshed me pretty hard :-)
You guys got cheese? I had to work
At the cheese factory?
Somebody's gotta meet the demand
Username checks out
Cheese reference? Butterkase?
Käse literally means cheese in German.
Unsure of the year, more like
And sick
Very fitting that my birthday (tomorrow) is in that middle period since that's basically me throughout the year 😄
Though technically the latter one is also fitting 🤷
Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Today!
