ITS SO FUCKING COLD OUT MY HEAT WENT OUT I MIGHT DIE SOON ITS MINUS 30 CELCIUS OUTSIDE

Dont build a fire, or burn anything, you will probably kill yourself with carbon monoxide poisoning if you dont have ventilation.

Blankets over the windows may help. Do you have electric heating? Electric oven?

In France? Hmmmmmm....

I HOPE YOU DIE QUICKLY.

Go stay with a friend, or in a hotel room.

Turn on Your oven that should at least heat the kitchen. Or Go where it is warm Store coffee shop Pub Friends house

Jog in place to keep your core temperature up!

Turn on you oven and open the door, keep calling your landlord. It's -34 here too. brrrrr

Good Luck

Don't be such a baby, it was -38C when I left for work this morning, you don't see me crying about it do you?

Pro tip: If you have no heat, crank up your oven and leave the door open, your place will warm up....assuming you're not using electric heat, that is. if you use elcetric heat and have no way of heating the place, dress in layers and wrap up in a couple of blankets, you can always shed a layer if you get too hot until you cool down, then put it back on.

ha, same time, the oven will help.

last year we had an ice storm and lost heat for 3 days..just wrapped in many layers and lots of blankets..was hell, for sure..but you wont die if you're not stupid. Also..if you have pets..pile them on top of you.

turn on your oven and close the doors to the rooms your not in .. keep the cupboards open under yoru sink and you should be ok till you get your heat back also leave your bathroom door open as well

The French are known for their quick surrender, I see you're no exception...

Did he put his head in the oven or what?
OP you alive?
Ah well who cares.

turn on the tea pot and drink a warm drink. Layer yourself with clothing and blankets. My parents were always believers in sleeping in the cold, so they turned the heat off upstairs (Iowa/MN border) and it got pretty darned chilly in the winter. How cold do you estimate it is in the house/apartment?

Sometimes I just read a guy's post and I know he ain't gonna make it.

So true about the pets. One of my relatives, who was very poor as a child, let the family's German Shepherds share a bed with her and her little sister. The dogs kept them very warm (and please, no bestiality comments)

LOL! Just wait until his pipes freeze and burst...

Pump some iron, eat some spicy food(delivery, obviously) and drink some whiskey but not enough to pass out because that would be dangerous given the circumstances. This is just common sense. If this doesn't work you should be plenty drunk enough to get tossed in the drunk tank. Urinate in a high traffic area, you'll be there in no time! Tell the police who arrive that it's your goal to urinate on every public building in town.

Or you could go stay at a friend's house. Your choice. ;)

Edmonton, Alberta windchill warning issued for -40 C to -50 C. not the best time for a flat tire! or accident but plenty are happening.

Stand around your caps lock key and rub your hands briskly...

I'm in the general region. It hurt everywhere when I was outside today.

There is no majic cure. You will need to turn on the heat.

-22 F, hell I`ve done roofing in that

I also ice fish in those temps and drink beer.

I didn`t think France got that cold?

I would have been more impressed if you weren't drinking beer while in -22 weather.

In Canada when the heat goes out, we go into heat! lol

Tonight's weather forecast where I am:

Partly cloudy. Wind north 20 km/h gusting to 40 increasing to 40 gusting to 60 after midnight. Low minus 22. Extreme wind chill minus 35. Frostbite in minutes.
