| ________________________________________ [Nov 8,2010 12:08pm - AndrewBastard ""] aparantly we dont need to turn our heat on in our new building...other people having their heat on makes our place like a furnace. Had the windows open last night for comfort. |
| _________________________________________ [Nov 8,2010 12:10pm - Lester__Burnham ""] cant afford oil for anything but hot showers fuck ill just buy electric heater and sit by that all winter,ill turn the heat only when my kid comes over beside that fuck it |
| ______________________________ [Nov 8,2010 2:33pm - Pires ""] not yet even though it snowed last night. |
| ________________________________ [Nov 8,2010 2:52pm - oscarct ""] I am waiting for the heat to be fixed in my apt..booooooooo |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 12:38pm - the_reverend ""] it's been 51 in here for weeks... I finally decided to turn on the bathroom heat today. |
| _________________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 12:56pm - AndrewBastard ""] windows still cracked last night. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 2:51pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Yeah who's left? Let's hear a roll call. I haven't turned mine on yet. I've been wearing track pants to bed. Haven't gotten to the hoodie stage yet. |
| _______________________________ [Nov 22,2010 2:58pm - Pires ""] Fuck that shit. Still no heat. Got the hoodie thing going on at night. Shits too expensive to turn on just yet. Plus i just get the heat from downstairs. Benefits of being on the second floor. |
| _______________________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 3:03pm - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] my 'stat is set to 60 most of the time. It's been real mild out here in Midwest land. Last January was fucking frigid though, 0 to -10 for most of January. It's natty gas out here which so far has been much cheaper than oil |
| ____________________________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 3:06pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Yeah I'm on 2nd floor with natural gas too. I'm paying over a grand for rent by myself now so I'm going to have to wear 10 hoodies before I think about turning the dial. |

| ______________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 3:52pm - the_reverend ""] I've been sleeping with 3 blankets for a few weeks, but this week it was below 30 outside every night so I slept under 3 blankets and wore 2 hoodies. I feel like a pussy now cause it's so mild outside right now. Then again, the heat is only on in my bathroom, not the rest of the house. |
| ________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 3:55pm - xmikex ""] Anyone else have oil heat? I'm in a new apartment with an oil heater for the first time. We somehow blew through 100 gallons on oil in a month. At first I was like... FU oil crisis, and then I realized how much it was going to cost. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 4:04pm - the_reverend ""] huh... I didn't know that anyone under 80 still had oil heat. |
| _______________________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 4:26pm - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] Oil is a joke. Even Flava Flav knows that! But seriously, if you can get gas do it, seems like the Northeast has a stranglehold on using oil though. |
| __________________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 4:51pm - largefreakatzero ""] Propane FHA, new furnace last year with Obama rebate at tax time. Heat is at 60 right now, and it feels rather raw in here. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 5:02pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I had oil at my last apartment. |

| ___________________________________ [Nov 22,2010 5:08pm - Lamp nli ""] In my small apartment, all the heat comes in through a grate on the side of the stove. Add to the fact that we weather stripped most of the windows and it's been pretty cheap. I hadn't been planning to turn it on so early but about the beginning of the month our landlord came in and showed us how to turn the pilot light on in the stove and it's been on low most of the time since. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Nov 26,2010 4:19pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I caved in last night and turned it on. My family was scaring me into thinking my pipes were going to freeze if I kept up with that shit. |
| ___________________________________ [Nov 26,2010 5:49pm - amorok666 ""] I will never need heat |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2010 7:55pm - the_reverend ""] As I was puking and pissing out my ass, I hard to turn on the gas to my wood/gas stove. So I've got 2 or 3 of my gas heaters turned on. |
| _______________________________ [Nov 27,2010 1:47am - Pires ""] At my gf's for the weekend in Worcester and she's had the heat on constantly. Fucking pissing me off. So got-dang hot in here. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 27,2010 3:36am - the_reverend ""] that's what happens when a girl's going through menopause. |
| _____________________________ [Nov 27,2010 1:06pm - pam ""] Mine has been on for a month. I am a wimp. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 28,2010 12:02am - nekronaut ""] I didn't cave because I was cold, but I had to turn on a space heater in my room for my hedgehog. Ambient room temperature needs to be at least 70. Sucks, but totally worth it to have this little guy around. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 28,2010 3:19am - the_reverend ""] Holy shit... it was 47 when I got home. Lit fire immediately. |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 28,2010 9:13am - FuckIsMySignature ""] so cold last night. thought the wind was gonna blow my windows out. luckily my space heater finally warmed up my room an hour before i had to leave for work this morning. |
| ______________________________ [Dec 28,2010 9:32am - Lamp ""] Yeah my windows have been rattling like a motherfuck. My roommate supposedly bought some more of caulk-like weatherstripping so I'm gonna see about sealing up the rest of my windows after work. |
