Word. I've only had real trees since I stopped living with my parents. - Krusty Oct 25, 11:49 17
- we always cut our own. - znufrii Oct 25, 11:51 2
  - Nice! This was with your parents in Oregon, correct? - Krusty Oct 25, 11:55 1
    - yup. -- nm - znufrii Oct 25, 11:56
- heh, mine always have a real tree. I had to vacuum and fill the water. no thanks. -- nm - loosilu Oct 25, 11:50 13
  - I can live with the needles and watering. I like the smell and look of the real trees. - Krusty Oct 25, 11:53 12
    - ditto. i have no problem with fake trees, i get the convenience, but a little watering and one big sweep and vaccuum session isn't really the end of - Andie Oct 25, 11:55 6

        you can get trashbags for trees, they are like tarps, lay tree over, roll it up and out you go -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 25, 12:07
        
        I had some a-hole try and throw his half cut up tree down the garbage chute last year. - Krusty Oct 25, 12:02
        
        oh, yeah. that happens. :) - Andie Oct 25, 12:01 2

        Two big garbage bags will do the trick. You'll still have a bit of a mess in the apt. from putting it in - Krusty Oct 25, 12:04
    - My issue with real trees is that the tree lots are frickin' insane and prices are crazy. Around here anyway. -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 11:54 4
      - I think I paid somewhere between $60 and $80 the last few years. -- nm - Krusty Oct 25, 11:56
      - IKEA! $20 trees. (if you buy them from other lots the nice ones start at about $40) -- nm - Andie Oct 25, 11:55 2
        
        Wow. I'm going to see if our local IKEA sells trees. Thanks Andie. -- nm - lileve Oct 25, 12:05
        
        (around here. i know in places in the south they cost a FORTUNE.) -- nm - Andie Oct 25, 11:56
Quit being old fashioned. - Spawn Oct 25, 11:45 3
- no. -- nm - znufrii Oct 25, 11:54 1
  - Okay, no tree for you! -- nm - Spawn Oct 25, 11:54
- Many complexes still ban real trees around here. - Beryllium Oct 25, 11:53
or as wrong as suggesting a vibrator as a thank you gift for a really nice coworker -- nm - ceregon Oct 25, 11:40 16
- znufrii didn't post that. -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 11:42
- aren't you the guy who posted.... -- nm - loosilu Oct 25, 11:41 14
  - yeah, in an IM with a warning in the subject - ceregon Oct 25, 11:43
  - That doesn't mean he can't want real advice sometimes. - ty97 Oct 25, 11:43 12
    - ST is nothing if not repetitive. - znufrii Oct 25, 11:45 1
      - ST is nothing if repetitive not. - tRuMaN Oct 25, 11:48
    - rule #1 of ST. If you ask a question, you will always get snarky responses. -- nm - loosilu Oct 25, 11:44 4
      - And if you'd posted this as your response rather than "aren't you the guy who...." I would have had no comment. -- nm - ty97 Oct 25, 11:50 3
        
        well, it seemed he was arguing about limits of taste. -- nm - loosilu Oct 25, 11:51 2
        
        I don't read every ceregon thread ever posted, but I figure he feels rather pidgeon-holed at this point. - ty97 Oct 25, 11:54 1
        
        that thread looked pretty tame to me. - loosilu Oct 25, 11:57
    - Of course not...but it does mean that more than likely, he will always get snarky responses to questions like that. -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 11:44 3
      - and it doesn't even matter who you are. -- nm - loosilu Oct 25, 11:44 2
        
        Word. And when it's something like THAT...well, expect it worse than usual. - Jim Oct 25, 11:46 1
        
        see Rule #1, above. -- nm - loosilu Oct 25, 11:46
    - Your IM is very close to how I see ST now -- nm - ceregon Oct 25, 11:44
meh. too messy. -- nm - loosilu Oct 25, 11:39
