Poll of the Day > Attn: Foxx

(+) Yeah! (+)

Do you want your town to build a Wolverine statue?

I mean yeah that would be a better use of tax dollars here than a lot of what they've been building

And would be cooler than all the jets everywhere
---

Like come on, he was born there in the 1880s

Yeah he'd be part of my friend's family if that canon was real

He would have been a Lefebvre not a Howlett

But the hometown for Wolverine was only added at the first Fox X-Men movies started (they just say northern Alberta in those)

Really? Your friends family last name is Howlett? And been there since the 1800s?

There's no Howlett family here, the only white family that was big back in the 1880s were the Lefebvre family. I'm saying if they created Wolverine with his family history when he started in the comics instead of adding that later, he would have been named Lefebvre (if they wanted to be accurate)

Ahh yeah, I am sure part of the reason why they did it the way they did is so they didnt have tonpay the Lefebvres anything

Could be, I think they just didn't have a specific location for him when he started. Not sure why they picked this place. It would have been mostly First Nations and small settlements. Definitely gets the northern and remote parts right. I don't know how people lived here through a winter and didn't move elsewhere back before modern amenities. Would have taken some hard badasses (just like Howlett really)

Fun fact: there's also local mythology about a giant man eating fish in the lake. We have a beach named after that fish
---

That is intresting, though with a name of cold lake, doesnt sound like a fun beach
---

Winter is so long here people are crazy in the summer. Outside all the time until very late.

That lake stays frigid. It's extremely deep. The shore beach areas are a little better. There's always lots of people swimming in the lake at the beach in the summer. Mostly young people. Many more just hanging out on the shore. Older people use the marina or boat launches and go boating and fishing or do other water activities. And for several weeks it never gets fully dark here, you can always see sunlight on the horizon.

It's cool but gosh the winters are usually brutal. There's always wind. I say this on a day that's abnormally warm. Like 14 degrees Celsius above average. What the fuck
---

Its 9c here today, no wind. Pretty nice out
---

20+ km/hr winds here so the 4 degrees feels like 0 and the roads are so bad
---

That sucks...

I'm used to it, it's still nice enough to open the windows a bit. Just weird! Gonna have a week of the plusses

I got one of those light alarm clocks to help with the short daylight. (our sunrise today was 8:27am) would recommend

i don't know what this topic is about

No it's an alarm clock that I got on Amazon. Some Philips wake-up light. It goes from a gentle glow a while before wake up and eventually gets to very bright light on my face when it's time to get up

It works pretty well. It's also a good ambient room light for later at night

Most likely. but you would have to position your phone correctly and it still wouldn't put out the same Lux as one of these things can

Meh, i am probably not even going to download it
