Pfft, I grew up in Minnesota and walked to school in jeans, a sweatshirt, and a hat in the middle of a blizzard for a full hour once. I was listening to Behemoth while I was walking and it was pretty fucking brutal. Walking down the sidewalk was like walking through icy trenches as the trucks pushed the snow up near them causing them to make huge piles all the way down. When I finally got to school I had to climb a mini mountain and I slipped and rolled down into what was left of the parking lot.

One of my jobs ended up being near my school so I got to walk home another hour in another blizzard at 6 in the morning, dark as fuck out, as giant snow trucks went up and down the street. I felt like frogger trying to dodge those things.

Thank god I moved to Oregon. Now it just rains. A lot.

Fairfox: It's really snowy out! Likeee... not actually snowing now, but it's all over the place and I need to walk - walk! - into the city center (rolls of quarters, Dunkin') and may accidentally slip a bit onto the nearby main roads, or just slip a bit onto my neck. I am scared. Goodbye.
I am not sure it will help, but there are worse way to die in the urban jungle ; like drinking from a soda can a rat peed on (that's a real thing).
Gogspeed !

Nah, read my story, I did technically climb a hill, and I tumbled like an idiot down the other side.

Growing up in Minnesota sucks, in my 12 years of school, they canceled for snow ONCE, and that was a very, very dangerous blizzard. The blizzard I went through they don't give a shit about. They expected your ass in school. I even got detention for being late. When snow hit hard after that, I didn't even bother going in.
At this point, it's simply obligatory for me to post this:

Well then its time for some words about cold and Laps

+10°C The inhabitants of Helsinki (Finland) turn off their heating. The Laps (inhabitants of Lapland) plant flowers.

+5°C The Laps take a sun-bath (if the sun gets over the horizon)

+2°C Italian cars won’t start.

0°C Pure water freezes.

-1°C Exhaled air becomes visible. Time to book some holidays around the Mediterranean. The Laps eat ice-cream & drink cold beer.

-15°C American cars won’t start.

-20°C Exhaled air becomes audible.

-22°C French cars won’t start. Too cold for skating.

-23°C Politicians start empathizing with homeless people.

-24°C German cars won’t start.

-26°C You can cut out the building material for igloos from exhaled air.

-29°C The cat wants to share my pajamas.

-30°C No proper car will start. Laps curse, kick tires and start theirs Ladas.

-31°C To cold to kiss, lips might freeze. The Lapland-soccer-team starts with their spring training.

-39°C Mercury freezes. Too cold to even think. Laps button up their shirts.

-40°C The car wants to share my duvet. Laps put on a sweater.

-44°C My colleague from Finland considers the possibility to shut the window of our office.

-45°C The Laps shut the bathroom-window.

-50°C Sea-lions leave Greenland. Laps put on mittens instead of gloves.

-70°C Polar Bears leave the polar region. At the University of Rovaniemi (Lappland) an outing is organized.

-75°C Santa leaves the polar region. Laps put down the earflaps of their caps.

-120°C Alcohol freezes. Consequence: Laps are annoyed.

-268°C Helium fluidizes.

-270°C Hell freezes

-273,15°C Absolute zero. Zero motion of elementary particles. Laps admit: Ok, it’s a bit cool – pass me another schnaps to suck on.

PS: Today in germany hot 23°C people start to go to beer garden
