Rain-dig or despise it?

lindz247 · 03-05-2015, 10:00 PM

For those who don't try to memorize the whole dictionary

dig is a slang word means something you're connected to like of course, tmnt!
You'd think more boys would like rain, knowing girls don't like their hair messy but I don't really care
I personally love the rain, it's the most peaceful sound...
While everyone else is whining I'd be the one actually out there! It's just water no different than taking a shower.
No I'm not one of those people who get out in the road and dance in it but something about it just lights me up inside.
Always dreamed of living in Seattle too. It could be pouring down for weeks, bring it on! Sunshine's overrated.

Rainy weekend days make me feel nostalgic for my old cottage and the games I'd play there when it rained, or the weird indoor stuff we'd get up to as kids. A very specific kind of rainy day also makes me insanely nostalgic for GC Animal Crossing rain. I used to love the sound of the rain on the roof while I was sleeping and I read through so many of my favourite books at that place when it was raining.

Aside from that I am brutally sensitive to pressure change and nearly every time it rains I tend to get really bad migraines, which makes me hate rain quite a bit.

*pennydreadful* · 03-05-2015, 11:57 PM

I love the rain.

*Netkeeper* · 03-06-2015, 12:05 AM

Absolutely love the rain. Love the sound, love the smell. Love walking in it.

*IndigoErth* · 03-06-2015, 12:12 AM

Depends. Like it in summer most. Too frequent gets tiring, pouring rain when it's really cold but a little too "warm" for snow sucks a lot. Here and there in the warmer months I like it. And sometimes reminds me of the rainy days spent playing in the basement as a kid.

Most of all I love thunderstorms. I'm one that will sometimes sit on the front step and watch the lightning.

Though a few years ago after thinking I'd go sit out there and watch a storm leave, since it sounded to be getting farther away and was clearing up, some late lighting on the tail end went and hit a pole a few houses up and nearly had me throwing myself into the house.

(Although in truth I was always wanting to see nearby lightning...) Knocked the power right out. (Luckily a neighbor who was also outside and saw it works for the power company and got someone out here pretty soon to fix it.)

Although rain + glasses sucks.

Truth.

Though for me, I tend to have my sunglasses on over my glasses which at least protects them!

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 03-06-2015, 12:40 AM

I LOVE rain, especially thunderstorms, but only if I don't HAVE to be out in it. It sucks to have to walk to/from work in it, but if it rains while I'm AT work, I don't mind one bit, as it means business will be a little slower, and we don't have to rush around quite so much. I LOVE thunder and lightning, and will often stand just outside my door and watch and listen to them. I've even been known to go out barefoot and splash and dance around in the rain, just for fun, like I used to as a kid.

I am especially happy when it rains lately, since we've been in a drought for about five+ years now. Every bit of rain we can get is welcome, what with some of our area lakes as much as 22 feet low. That's BAD. Rain is always beautiful, but even more so when it's sorely needed!!

(And here's a fun fact- my maiden name is Irish, and roughly translates to "son of the storm"- which might explain why I love storms so much. Go figure....)

Love rain.....except the power outages. And glasses. Sometimes I go outside and try to lick the rain.

*Whatswiththeheadbands?* · 03-06-2015, 07:46 AM

Rain is one of the most calming things ever, if you ask me.

Bam · 03-06-2015, 08:18 AM

I hate the rain. It depresses me.

Oh my gawd xD
Power outages are cool we light up a bunch of candles and if my friends over we go under the bed and tell stories to scare the crap out of my sis hahaha
I noticed that when it rains it's so much prettier outside the grass almost looks blue!

Yeah, and I love the smell!

Makes the flowers grow

not that I'm a tree hugger(I totally am)lol, anyway I live in a hot state, rain is always welcome..it's rainy today.
86 where I live while everyone else covered in snow..

*TheCanadiandrome* · 03-06-2015, 01:51 PM

it's ok after a really hot summers day to cool things off, but i hate it during this season when rain makes everything icey and slippery and a real pain to get around

You'd expect that in Florida! And how did the snow skip you guys but hit Texas?

I'm sorry. It is darker when it rains and I heard dark rooms/etc. can make you sad and lonely.

*Ninjinister* · 03-06-2015, 03:25 PM

I've lived in this area for my entire life. I hate the rain. It can go **** a goat.

*BubblyShell22* · 03-06-2015, 05:01 PM

I hate the rain as it gives me headaches. I hate all weather and just wish it didn't change so much here.

**Jester** · 03-06-2015, 05:07 PM

Like most weather, I don't mind rain, as long as i'm at home listening to it hit the windows and patter on the roof. If I have to drive in the stuff....SCREW RAIN!

*Icebot* · 03-06-2015, 05:48 PM

I like rain except when it causes damage and power outages, like tornadoes and hurricanes.

I like rain most when we need it, like when we have a drought. I hate droughts.
