And I almost missed it! I accidentally looked out my window before going to bed @ 1am and just noticed it was snowing. Snow is cool until you have to scrape the shit off your car, wait for it to defrost, drive careful/slow to avoid the old people driving 10mph, get to work 20 minutes late, and drive 3 hours for Thanksgiving tomorrow. Sooo... here's to snow!

its a great idea indeed!! but the sad news is, there's a new trend in car theft starting around here... an empty running car with unlocked doors is too easy a target :(

..so I started using two keys last winter! one to start my car, and the other to lock it up.

#306291Post 14 of 26

well, that's sounde nice sooper :)

it's even better and safer than leaving the car unlocked :Bingo:

I have no idea where either dog lives. just random pictures off the net, dude.

I woke up this morning and saw it STILL SNOWING. The news said an average of 7 inches around the Kansas City metro today. The drive to work also reminded me that I also don't like CDs fogging up in the CD player, dumbasses that thing powerless stoplights mean "always green", not being able to stop and help people that are stuck when I'm running 30 minutes late to work, fishtailing, and getting stuck myself when/where nobody wants to help.

On the plus side, I got to watch my 8 month old puppy try to piss in 7 inches of snow for the first time... classic. She left an assprint in the snow where she squatted to piss.

Uhhh, that's impossible. If I get up 30 min early, that means I get to hit the snooze for an extra 30 min.... :P

Woah, next year I'll be sitting in Africa with 40 degrees celsius on the beach in Ghana under the palm trees with a coconut...can't wait for that to happen.

There's only semi-quasi-wannabe snow in Holland, looks more like a Slush Puppy. Last year though, while waiting on the platform for the next train, me and my friend made a man-size dick on the platform. Only time it really snowed, and the looks of people passing by were priceless... :Naughty:

i used to be a snooze slut too.. then i discovered something even more rewarding - the after shower nap (i'm a morning showerer)

so I get up an hour earlier than I need to, so that I can go back to sleep after my shower. Its fantastic, cause I'm freezing when I get out the shower, and I know my bed is still warm... and also I have something to look forward to in the shower, instead of dreading going to work!

We had some snow last week, was awesome for about an hour until it started raining again.

Can't wait until we get some January snow, snowmen shall be built.

Add the stupid tourists driving at 5mph because it's the first time they see it, the assholes that think that just because they have a 4x4 they know how to drive on snow... :roll:
