CarrionCrow: Looks like there's a "stay inside or else you might frigging DIE" warning for your neck of the woods from midnight tonight your time to Thursday at 9 am your time.
EndreWhiteMane: Yep And now, for the ridiculous comment that'll make you want to throw something at me....
The arctic death wind headed your way sure does make me appreciate my winter bullshit that much more! -laughs-
Additional - just going to come right out and say it. Winter is just garbage, all the way through.
I enjoy wind, I enjoy rain, but as soon as it turns to snow and ice and death gales? To hell with all of it.
I remember growing up in California, where it never snowed, and I used to think to myself, "Oh man, I wonder what having a lot of snow is like?"
Turns out, it fucking sucks. All the tranquility, the graceful drifting of snowflakes? That's all bullshit.
It's tranquil because it's godsdamned cold and everyone has to go inside.
I used to go for walks in super cold weather, and I loved that tranquility. Nothing around, no people, no animals, just quiet and stillness.
But I know damn good and well why that was the case - I was the only creature on two legs or four, with wings or without, stupid enough to actually be out in it.
Also, to anyone wondering about snow that hasn't seen it? It's all a lie. You know what you end up with by the time a few months of snow have fallen? Dirty grayish-black shit everywhere. That's it.
All that seeming beauty is nothing more but a frosty sponge to soak up all the grime and filth that accumulates every day.
And to anyone who has that fantasy of sipping cocoa in front of a fire on a cold night?
Just do that after you've stuffed yourself in a bathtub full of ice for a while like someone just drugged you and cut out one of your kidneys to sell on the black market. Same frigging effect.
You were cold, then you drank warm stuff and sat near a heat source until you weren't cold anymore.
How magical.
