    THEY
    HAVE
    TO
    MUCH
    TIME!

    Rara:
    Could you please explain what the activity “much time” is and why you believe they are compelled to do it?

  3. Shallowred says:

    Think she meant “too”.

  4. Mucher says:

    Muching time is fun, I do it too.

  5. Sariko says:

    The ‘reddit aliens’ aren’t intended to be Reddit aliens, if that’s how you view them. The first three pictures (not sure about the fourth) are the butt-biting bugs, which is a quirky little japanese phenomenon called oshiri-kajiri mushi. Look it up on youtube.

  6. TheGabe says:

    I too love to much time.
    Time is just there to be muched.

  7. Jessi says:

    Shallow red is a moron for not knowing that someone with the name ‘LearnEnglish’ is being sarcastic about the the first post not being able to, you know, speak english

  8. god(zilla) complex says:

    how ’bout you all just fucking look at the cool snow sculptures?

  9. Mads says:

    That’s not a Human Maze, it’s a Snow Maze.
    A human maze would be cool, though: when you got lost, you could ask the ‘walls’ for directions.

  14. I’m super beside myself because it started dumping near my house and that translates to snowboarding at the local resorts! In addition I bought a discount lift tickets pass for a load of snow resorts!
