given the same weather (for recreational purposes, I guess).... if you had a choice, would you want today to be:

a) Fully functional, since all the streets were cleared, people were at work at grocery stores, mcd's, etcs

or

b) Streets half-assedly cleared and society kind of drunk and semi-retarded, businesses/churches/etc closing simply because it's snowing

i thought society was always drunk and semi-retarded

1/30/2010 5:48:16 PM

philosophical atomic bomb. you just dropped it

1/30/2010 5:48:41 PM

i certainly prefer my society drunk and semi-retarded

1/30/2010 5:49:11 PM

The glass of gin in my hand has the answer... now to just find it in there.

1/30/2010 5:51:06 PM

my fav was on wral they show some hick in a canoe on the snow with his kids, and he's got the paddle like he's about to get on his way. ahhh, the south.

1/30/2010 5:51:30 PM

a) would you like your taxes hiked by 30% to pay for a fleet of snow plows and repaving of roads properly to resist snow and ice buildup

or

b) save your goddamn money because it only snows enough to block traffic about 2 days every three years.

1/30/2010 5:56:37 PM

yea that's what I thought you little yankee punk ass.

1/30/2010 6:12:41 PM

YO UREALLY SHOWED HIM

FUCK I BET HE'S SHAKING IN HIS BOOTS


BRRRRRR

1/30/2010 6:13:17 PM

srsly though, I'll take 1 day of drunk semi-retardedness over costs of having a proper street plowing operation. It just isn't needed on that level here.

i would prefer everything be like normal, but i also don't want them wasting tons of money on salt and plowing

so pretty much i just wish it would never snow

1/30/2010 7:08:57 PM

I guess I think society just kind of likes doing nothing on the account of something "uncontrollable"

1/30/2010 7:10:17 PM

it would appear that way

1/30/2010 7:12:39 PM

I love using snow as an excuse to do nothing.

1/30/2010 7:13:58 PM

A for a majority of the time, but B done on occasion just for shits and giggles

we have a real smart yankee here fellas.. be real careful or else his IQ will bite you in ur ass!

1/30/2010 7:32:15 PM

even for trolling, that's kind of a yawn

1/30/2010 7:33:18 PM

i'm sorry sir, you miscategorized my post.

1/30/2010 7:35:30 PM

my friend said that this snow would have been way more awesome if it was on, say, monday. I tend to agree.. at least then we can benefit from society shutting down

1/30/2010 7:39:37 PM

There's no avoiding what happened today. No amount of preparation can un-ice the roads. Salt stops working below 25 degrees or so.

But ya, I would prefer fully clear roads & open stores. I had a huge craving for donuts earlier.
