theadmiral Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Would you rather work by candlelight or regular lighting if you are at your desk at night? Foruming, watching a movie on the computer, catching up on email, drinking excessively, or whatever. Lately with the abundance of candles I've been given for thanksgiving and now Christmas, I've found that I rather enjoy turning the lights off and using a couple of candles instead. Does anyone else prefer this? Please feel free to post in this thread about all of your candle related experiences.

GunWrath Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I used to.. been quite some time though but I enjoy the dim lighting as well. Not to mention, better on the utility bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiffster Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Only time we ever light candles is when there's a power failure, which doesn't happen that often. But even then, we usually use battery operated lanterns or touch lights or something. I prefer regular lighting otherwise. We sometimes burn citronella candles though, to keep mosquitoes out of the house. It works (most of the time). Too many mozzies over here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnocchi Flip Flops Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Candles in my house are only used when we're trying to get a bad smell out or if we're having a classy dinner-rare. EphemeralStar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunWrath Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Valentine's Day seems about the only day I burn them any more though. Get all warm and fuzzy with your partner, 2mins later it's over. Priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-King Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I love candles, but I've always kind of had an obsession with lighting. I remember I wanted a dimmer for my room back when I was in elementary because I love being in control of a room's mood. |PropagandaIncorporated:|: Steam:|: DeviantArt:|: Last.FM| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Dildo Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I don't necessarily care for candles in terms of candle light. but I regularly burn incense for the scent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I use candles to start fires, most of the candle is gone by the time the building is burnt down and nobody expects an arsonist with a candle. AceRay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your posts have been getting progressively worse over the last few months, by worse I mean downright retarded and your avatar reflects that. Please stop, just be a normal member again. Anyway, to answer the original question, personally, I don't like candles that much, I used to like them when camping but now I bring a car battery and have split the wires for a little halogen downlight I have, the steady light is far better, especially for reading which I do a lot of, light that flickers is just an annoying distraction that constantly reminds me of where I am.

EphemeralStar Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I love candles! I love bath and body works! I love masking the smell of my stinky room and giving off the illusion that my room is clean and smells like a girly flowery fruity tutti room! <3 I don't use candle light to see though because I have a big pet peeve with not enough light. My mom cooks in the kitchen at night with no light and doesn't care that the light is almost dead and I've resorted to using a head flash light at times. Sad, but true.

I guess it is acceptable here to go into threads and tell people to stick things in their ass. Oh well.You are obviously relatively new over here. A while back there began to come up threads like "Weirdest Things You've Put Your Dick In", "Weirdest Things You've Put Up Your Ass" or "Weirdest Things You've Put In Your Vagina". http://gtaforums.com/topic/545741-weirdest-thing-youve-put-your-dick-in/ http://gtaforums.com/topic/546282-weirdest-thing-youve-put-up-your-ass/ http://gtaforums.com/topic/546273-weirdest-thing-youve-put-in-your-vagina/ Yeah, Gtaforums has been a classy place for a long while... Now regarding to your question, I don't use candless too often since I don't live in a slum and we can afford the light bill, but I sometimes use them in special occasions. gn1992 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacymist Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I do enjoy using candles, but usually to burn things. Lit candle+lysol=jolly good fun. My carpet would disagree though, which is why I no longer keep candles around. It's best to keep me away from fire in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morons03 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) I like to use candles for light. I have actually been, with candle light, and electrical light, all my life with being a Civil War reenacter for all that time. My dad makes lanterns for some of the sutlers and he said he'll show me how to make one. We also have a lot of bee's wax candles that smell like honey.

MarshalMoo Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I like this idea of candle-lit internet usage. Now I'm no longer sitting in my room with the glow of my computer screen. I'm sitting in my room with the glow of Blackberry Spice candle (and computer screen.) Is that gay? Maybe that's gay. It was a Christmas present. Is Apple Cinnamon also gay? t3h PeNgU1N oF d00m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenBlade Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I don't use candles at all. Maybe a few when there is a power outage, but that's rare. I prefer regular lighting when doing anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moth Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I use candles all the time and I never started a fire. Then how do you light the candles? With one of those grill lighters. So you did start a fire. Or do you not know how candles work? And meh, hardly ever use candles. Only when the power goes out, or around Christmas.
