I couldn't find a piece of software to emulate these :(

My question for you all is: What does it take to get you outside? Pics are welcome :D

@hat- No... not even the i7 has the processing capabilities of inline skates, so your processor definitely doesn't have enough power. So what do you do in the spring/summertime?

@Error- It was summer at one point. Please be true to the OP.

Same thing I do all the time. Just sit here and try to amuse myself with various 3d and 2d applications.

I usually only go out to go to a different indoor facility. I'm allergic to the sun. If I have my SPF100 (ridiculously expensive, btw), you can coerce me out for an amuzment park, or a nice family picnic (as long as there is a pavilion available). I also love Frisbee. lol.

I would Golf, if I could teach myself to hit the ball properly.

I'm afraid the summer in AZ has already started so it'll take october to come for me to go out again. not unless you've got an outdoor air conditioner. in which case how you want for it?

I'm outside alot. I go to car shows every Sunday If the weather permits. My fiancé and I like to walk the track at the HS by our house, we also go to the park. I like to run I have to keep in shape because I don't want to be a fat cop one day. Right now I'm looking for a breeder for Rottweilers, I want a Pup so that will keep me busy and outside as well.

I love it outside, but damn my allergies kill me. Once summer gets here, I am outside as much as possible, even with the Texas heat.

I get my new cleats tomorrow, but my allergies are the worst they've ever been this year. :( Getting shots on Thurs. :)

Right now my right eye is near swollen shut, I'm getting constant nosebleeds/sneezing, and I'm even getting lymph node swelling!

However I have already accrued a nice driver's tan and a little bit of colour from soccer.

I only go outside for riding dirtbikes, family cookouts (laptop + wifi FTW), or if I'm bored of my PC, or if I need to go for a walk.

I'll give you a playing lesson, you got clubs? I've shot about 5 rounds already this summer and need another 5 by the end of August.

Lowest score(this year) was an 81 on a par 66. Not too bad for my game. The best on a par 72 was a 94.

I go out when the lawn needs mowed, to fish or work. Sometimes I'll sit out on my patio and slug some beers down and smoke abit. I go out more at night to partay!!!

As to golf, I used to work at a golf course and never played because they would be doin more landscaping after I hit it about 20 times to the green lol.

I would always scare the golfers lol. The parking lot had fresh blacktop on it and when they were on the tee about to tee off, I would hit the brakes on my cart, lock them up and squeal very loud and I never saw golfers almost fall down from missing the ball lol.

One of them actually threw the club further than the ball!

I don't have clubs, no. But I know the primary problem with my swing. I'm an ex hockey player, so I open up the club face every time. When I hit the ball, it leaves the tee at almost a 60° angle from me. :roll: (*shaking fist* Dammit Dan, give us the tpu emoticons!!!!!)

Where are you from, anyway?

I'm in the lovely state of Kansas. I understand your swing flaw, I battled a slice(still do sometimes) from my years of baseball. I kept wanting to lean back as I hit the ball, little did I know I needed to lean forward almost 90% of my weight to help control the shot and add power.

I picked it up from the Stack and Tilt approach and its been working wonders, I tee off with a 3 Iron instead of my driver now cause I have the control and distance I need.

If I have money I go out. Or if some of my friends want to play street basketball or backyard football.
Or to work on a car or a walk.
