I want pancakes.

I'm still alive, btw.  I've had a few chances to unpause, but not much else and I think hardly an in-game week has passed.  Still.  Progress.  If slow.

I'll start taking screenshots.

Good news:  I'm supposed to get 15 inches of snow tomorrow, so I will probably be able to sit on my ass and play DF all day.  I might actually be able to feed the thread a real update instead of tiny little scraps of updates.

Is Fedex going to deliver it to your house or something?

[Oliolli]

15 inches is almost 40 cm, correct?

Sooo... How is that going to give you time to play DF? Just means you have to plow it, or maybe just walk straight through it, taking even more time.

It's called a blizzard.

No it means I won't have to go *somewhere else* to do something, and the going *somewhere else* would involve taking far more time than plowing the snow ever would.

I'll probably not plow it until it's done falling anyways, saving even more time.

[Mego]

Well, you said that you're going to get 15 inches, not that your area would get it. It sounded like you meant the snow would be only at your house, hence the Fedex joke.

...and I just explained the joke. Welp.

And how exactly does snow remove your need to go *somewhere else*?

Well, if all he has to worry about is going to class/school, then it's entirely possible said institution could say fuck it and call it a "snow day" depending on how wimpy that particular area is about "bad" weather.

Some of the school districts I attended as a kid were utter wimps. In Iowa, they wouldn't let kids play outside if it was even slightly soggy on a perfectly normal day (which it almost always was), and they'd call a snow day for the mildest snowfall, and then hypocritically allow busses to run through the worst. My brother's bus ran off the road and rolled over in an actually serious blizzard. One kid broke his arm, but still helped everyone off the bus, while the prehistoric driver passed out in his seat and they all had to huddle in an ambulance for warmth until another bus came an hour later TO SHUTTLE THEM TO THE SCHOOL 30 MILES AWAY, THEN BACK. At no point did they inform parents, or decide this was a horrible idea. Fucking. Idiots. Some of the kids called their parents to come pick them up.

Of course the college I'm attending now cancelled classes in mild wind and snow. I actually drove all the way out there only to find the security guard to turn me away, because I didn't get the memo with no internet/phone service.
