Everything is shut down today. 1 inch of snow is not a blizzard. :mad3: The left pussies have now taken over the cancelation of school, work, daycare and businesses also.

Surely some of the PTA Karens are leftists, but the main reason the USA is now pussy about snow is Insurance companies, lawyers, and our Professional Management Class (which includes bureaucratic workers).

CYA ethos, which is what you're all about no doubt. You seem like a tech person so I'd guess 40-60% of every working hour you spend CYA.

It's a CYA society in a CYA world.
 
Exactly one year ago Jan 15 2020 it was -40 here and we had feet of snow, not typical. Today we are sitting at 35 and puddles in the yard, not typical either but I sure like this way better.
 
I turned our central air off 4 weeks ago. The electric company is going to do a welfare check on us any day now I know it.

Maybe. This year is the first year we have ever closed or the city has shut down. It's the 3rd time now in the last 6 months. For an inch? :lmao: Come awn. I have pics of being one of the 5 people that made it to work in 2009 when we got 18 inches of snow.

Corona has really killed the fight in most people and I frankly find it annoying.

On the local radio they announced all the school closings, as Im looking out the kitchen radion thinking wtf over? Barely a dusting in the yard/drive. head out to come to the office and our road is clear(east-west road) but the chip-n-seal road(north-south) is sketchy. Get out to the highway and here comes a usd113 school bus! ALL of the other districts close for weather, we are still running! And they wonder why our school dominates year after year, we're not raising pussies. On another note, we are the only local school to not close a single day due to kung flu. must be something in the water here :laughing:

I ran into this in the Mid-South. If there is a threat of non-liquid water in the sky, they shut down. And to be fair, the roads in southern appalachia are totally unsuited for how the Upper Midwest abuses their roads in the snow :lmao: There can't be wide shoulders there, 25% of the residential properties would be under gravel. I give a huge amount of leeway to Southern shenanigans in the snow and cold, they're really not prepared for it and frankly it's tragic. The beginning of every winter, the local news runs the stories about people killing themselves with makeshift heaters, either burning their family up or they all die from CO. Contrary to what most people think of me and my 4chan ways, I do not celebrate their deaths. I don't expect some guy living in a literal tarpaper shack, trailer, or Sect 8 housing to have all the ins and outs of space heating down pat.

I would make the straight-up Democrat argument that the South needs more regulation vis a vis home heating safety.

Sunday night we got 6" of snow which never happens. A light dusting is enough to close the whole town down till noon. Power was out along with internet for many of us. I turned on the radio expecting a long list of school and road closing and all they say is to go check their website for updates. :mad:
 
We had a sky is falling forecast in southern MN. Heck, the interstate is closed about 90 miles west of here. Blizzard warnings were flying, the schools all closed last night...

I awoke to a 9 mph wind and 4 inches of snow on the ground. Its now in the mid-30s and an occasional light mist is falling.

Fukin' snowblower broke, though, so I have to go out back and fix it (again). Always something with the equipment. I have to work tonight (more snow this afternoon), so I might just talk to the neighbor about plowing my shit while he's out doing his contracts. Perhaps for the rest of the season. I am sick of the POS snowblower dying every time there is more than an inch of snow.

I told the wife this morning we need to move someplace less pussified. The dems are taking over here. Shit, the state split for the first time I can remember. You need a sales guy? I'm sure my salary requirement is going to be a deal breaker. :frown:

Our school called school off this past monday evening for Tuesday due to the possibility of hazardous weather. It was 37 and rain. They've closed because it was too cold for kids to be outside waiting on a bus...it was in the 20s.

The pussification of this country is complete.

Is it possible for you to tan? I mean, any Armenian I know is pretty much a Sasquatch. I don’t know if the sun can make it through all that Chewbacca fur you are wearing:flipoff2:
