I feel your pain man. Nebraska sucks.

I don't understand Nebraska.  It snows like crazy yeah.  But everyone has sleds, even though you have no hills.  Why is that?  What do you use them for?

We had almost 6 inches of snow in Texas. I'm pretty sure that's even ahead of virgin births on the crazy scale. I even made a snowman. Teehee.

Almost six inches?  Where do you live?  Here in Dallas we had nine.  Fucking nine inches.  "The Great Blizzard of 2010" they say is the new record for this area.

Snowballs, snowmen, and sledding.  Against all the laws of man and God, my college was still in cession yesterday.  Expect none of the professors showed up, but none of them posted notices or emails to that effect.  I'm going to words on Monday, yes I am.

I'm about an hour from Longview here, as soon as I saw snow falling Thursday morning I didn't even bother going to college,  I fully expected it to be gone or turned into sleet by today.

In the city I live, there are at least 4 good hills. They are all at high schools though, which I find odd.
There are very few 'good' natural hills in Nebraska for sledding, at least that I've seen, but some of the man-made construction cuts into the larger gradual hills, making them steep.

Yikes, the Orcs have a nasty language.  Traditional foreplay would be right out for them; how would they ever "say my name" for one another?  No wonder Ocrs are always so bloodthirsty and violent, they're getting sub-par action.

1. My parents are over protective.
2. I could dig my way out.
3. Unlike most other dumbasses in my neighborhood, I actually know what the hell I'm doing so I lead them. This makes sure there are no collapses.

I dunno, my mom used to go batshit when we dug snow tunnels. She saw some kid suffocate in his own tunnel on the news and has been insanely paranoid ever since. Then again, she gets paranoid about most things.

I like to slip into bear caves around midnight and gently caress the carnivore inside before leaving a small cut of fresh fish and sneaking out.

sure, when 100kg of snow collapse on you, you will surely be able to dig yourself out, because your arms will obviously not be obstructed

Technically I live in a different city, but mainly my school's city. And I have a third city's phone number.

In the city I technically live in, It's illegal.
But Technically I live in a different city because the school is literally like 400 yards away.

I have no idea what the hell 100kg is. Either way, You always dig in pairs. No matter what. He's digging me out from there, I'm wiggling my arms and kicking my legs and trying to conserve air.

I guess that would translate to about 200 pounds

200 pounds of snow is not something I'd want to be under. Then again, when I was your age, I had only seen snow once before and didn't have that many friends.

220 pounds. And that's not a lot - it's dispersed. Trust me. I've wiggled out of greater masses of snow (and humans, for that matter).

You live in Minnesota?? Awesome, man. Northstar high-five! Good to see DF players exist here in this frigid, Scandinavian state. Out of curiosity,
(you don't have to answer this if you don't want to) what city do you live in?

Lucky yall in Dallas, we got nothing down in Houston except for a whole lot of cold (for texas). Then again, getting snow in Houston twice in one year is probably one of the signs of apocalypse.

Awesome stuff here guys! Beware of cave-ins.
