There is 3 inches of unplowed, unsalted snow and ice on the road. I just saw 3 people in the ditch. One of them spun out while trying to pass me, I wasn't even going that slow, especially given the road conditions.

Lay off the gas instead of or at least before braking, and slow down. Yes, I'm in a hurry too; there's a method to the madness. Gah.

I live in South Carolina, so we get snow like once every two or three years.  Last year we got a crapton, and nobod here knows how to drive in snow.  I saw sooo many cars pulled over or forcibly removed from the road.

I don't ever intend to drive in snow again if I can help it.

Didn't help that the timing belt broke on my car in the middle of it.  I mean, wtf car?  Was the situation not crappy enough?

img.ie became tnypic.net for some reason???
Wonder why.

.ie is the domain for the Republic of Ireland, so I somewhat doubt that.

Perhaps they ran out of server space and are borrowing some until they can buy more?

It still says 'powered by the img.ie cloud' at the bottom though. Other than that, it sounds like a good possibility.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

You live near me? It was mostly green yesterday, but now a crapton of snow.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Agreed.  Where I live the most we've gotten all winter was 2 inches of snow, and that melted within a day or two.

At least snow is a thing that happens for you. All we get here is rain and wind. And 40-60 degree (F) weather. That's like.. a bit over 0 degrees C?
Whatever. Worst part: sometimes on afternoons it gets as high as 70 F.

That actually sounds wonderful.  Nice stable temperatures, if a little on the chilly side. But what we have here is probably a "grass is greener on the other side of the fence' type, thing.

and 32 F is 0 C

I hate the winter, right now it's 62 degrees F out, and today's high is only 70. (just looked it up)
soo cold, I wish it would hurry up and warm up outside. I prefer it to be 80-90 degrees outside.


but the reason I was originally going to post in this thread was my dream last night, or at least the part of it I remembered.
(no one likes reading about dreams so I'll give you the fast version of it)
I was back in my high school senior english class and had to pick a partner for writing a paper, I picked this fat mexican kid named Edwardo who didn't speak much english, and we were assigned to write a paper on "The Angry Skinheads role in modern society"
I remember asking the teacher if we could write on their role inside of a prison and the teacher said no, and when I put my pencil to paper the phone rand and I woke up.

WTF? o_O

Just looked up a conversion chart, and 62 F is 16.6 C.

I walk back and from school up hill both ways in a hoodie with-22 F weather that feels like -49 because the wind chill hates your exposed skin.

BTW, exposed skin is gone in about 5 minutes.

62 is cold to you? That's the temperature when we open all the windows and go to T-shirts.
