I believe I said there weren't hurricanes and tornado's.

As far as volcano activities go, here they are: Active Volcanoes in Europe

And that's the list of volcanic eruptions by death toll in the world: List of volcanic eruptions by death toll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. You can cross-reference. I tend to not count "between 1650 and 1500 BC." The eruption in Iceland was highly unusual.

eh I've been to Europe so I think "no hurricanes" is not accurate!

but yeah those Euros tend to get off easy with the whole natural disaster thing, although Pompeii kinda makes up for it

e: Sierra are there ever sandstorms in AZ? I know parts of AZ get snow and whatnot, and I never think of it as being the kind of desert you find in the Middle East.

I guess that's a good thing, because you said you would have an easier time getting girls if you lower your standards

I live 2 hours from the Arizona border and we get dust storms here.

I was trying to be supportive of HurricaneDC. I can relate to him because we both have a hard time getting girls. How about you don't get involved with conversations you're not part of?

I finally thought I should do some research because I've been talking based on memories. It looks to me that you, guys, are right. Frankly, I can't say I've been following weather activities in Europe in the past 15 yeas. Yes, it seems like ever since devastating "natural" disasters started happening almost every day all over the world, Europe hasn't been spared. There's still nothing like that in my neck of the woods there (I look at the news occasionally and talk with people, so I would've heard; I've heard about floods, hail, and droughts), but that's not the case in the whole continent.

I apologize for not checking current facts and speaking from memories.

They're more like dust storms. Ha, yeah, many think the desert here looks like Sahara. In reality it's quite green - just different type of vegetation.

That's the type of scenery and landscape you see around here:

It's not your private forum. Direct message him if you need to commiserate.

This is a chat thread. People can talk about whatever they want. If he has the right to say he has a thing for fat girls, I have the right to be supportive of him.

It's not your private forum either, so why did you join in on the conversation that doesn't concern you?
