I can empathise, I build a snowman last year and when it thawed the water was absorbed by the ground, it then was soaked up by a orchard a few miles away and the apples where sold by the owner, so he profited from my snowman. I am taking it all the way to Europe.Comment

No, but you do expect it to last about 5min before it gets trashed.Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostDuring the call the woman said: "It ain't a nice road but you don't expect someone to nick your snowman."
Snow is a good test of how rough your street is:
- Rough: snowman kicked to bits in an hour or less
- Very rough: same but the head is thrown at your house, or the snowman is in your back garden
- Roughish: decapitated or trashed within 24 hours
- OK: people add genitalia
- Good: left well alone
- Excellent: people add decorations or more snowmen next to it
One snowman in our street has a giant icicle stabbed through it's heart, otherwise no fatalities. There is a 7-foot tall snow-penis standing upright in a nearby garden, complete with balls covered in bits of sticks for pubes. Well, it was upright but is slowly leaning/drooping as the sun hits it.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
