The time for stupid statements is over.

 

[delusional]

You know, whoever makes the maps of the US should reveal the real size Alaska since the Hawaiian islands are not as big as Alaska. They're misleading the American people and then we get threads like these. And inevitably spam.

Has anyone other than me lived in Alaska?

I want to move to Barrow. Just for the fun though.

Just so you know, there are no vampires. And there are not 30 days of night. It's 67. And... it's misleading anyways.

Muahahaha.

Oh and umm. I never lived that far north.

lol, I watched that movie. Too bad I knew of the place before i watched it. :E

Did you know they have the northernmost Mexican Restaurant.

I live in Anchorage and there is no fun to be had in Barrow.

 

[kirovman]

Such a big place, so few people.

Paradise on earth?

Or is someone going to tell me how bad Alaska is?

 

[Vegeta897]

You will be killed by a moose.

 

[_Z_Ryuken]

There has been an influx of Californians and other people types making it a little cramped here.

I petted a moose once. They aren't angry creatures. Hundreds are killed each year by idiot drivers.

The oil and mine companies think they own Alaska.

Snowy season has completely shifted forward about 3 months.

Bad is steadily outweighing the good, or at least encroaching upon it.

A male moose is the most dangerous animal you'll ever encounter in Alaska during rutting season.

Every time I saw a moose anyways, despite it not being rutting season, I was terrified. You never know what they will do. They may attack and if they do, you lose.


Anyways. Alaska is an awesome place. The town I used to live in, Eagle River, was a wonderful place. But over time after I left, people began to flood in there and now it's so damn crowded in that city I wouldn't want to live there again. I'd want to find another small slice of suburban Alaskan paradise.

I think you'd want to stay away from any male animal that's looking for a mate.

 

[Raziaar]

But a moose is the most deadly one you'll find in North America when it's in rutting season. More deadly than any bear or wolf.

A moose once bit my sister...

 

[Sneaki]

Elk > Moose

 

[Raziaar]

Elk > Moose

Moose cover a larger expanse of habitat. Therefore they are more superior.


Wow... totally bizarre moose fact.

If a bull moose is castrated, either due to accidental or chemical means, he will quickly shed his current set of antlers and then immediately begin to grow a new set of misshapen and deformed antlers that he will wear the rest of his life without ever shedding again. The distinctive looking appendages (often referred to as "devil's antlers") are the source of several myths and legends among many groups of Inuit as well as several other tribes of indigenous peoples of North America.

You fail at spotting Monty Python-references. Two hours in the booth, off you go!

Did anyone know that England is really small?

And yet, you once ruled the world. Until you ****ed it up. Personally, I'd blame the Welsh.

Don't make me get the :arms: out!

Yea, England is tiny compared to the US :O

 

[Druckles]

No, not the :arms:! D:

I considered erasing the rest of the UK from the picture just to demonstrate the size.

But then Wales is even smaller :/

 

[Reginald]

shut it

 

[Asknoone]

Do people seriously think I'm Welsh? Wow. That's like, a personal insult.

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

To the Welsh.
