It was super cold in my area. So cold it hardly snowed though. So if you didn’t get your skiing in before January you missed out. And we’re still in a drought even though we used to live in basically a seasonal rain forest.

That’sa valid concern, we’re here for the inconsequential stuff.

Fully agree though.

That's a really small section of Americans at this point.

My wife got me some lefty hair scissors for cutting my son’s hair. Took a few tries but I started to get the hang of it right before he got old enough to not like me cutting his hair.

Baggers are the motorcycles with loud exhaust and even louder speaker systems in the big plastic cargo bags on the back. Often ridden by insecure assholes in my experience.

Eh, underestimating new England’s 4000 footers is how most people end up dying out there. The trees are way more dense, and all the same age because of re-forestation after the 1800s. So going off trail is a terrible idea.

Also as was said before, the puny 6000ft Mount Washington wind speed is actually the highest recorded on earth (not inside a tornado anyway). But it’s just a symptom of how fast the weather changes and that is most often what kills people.

Oh yeah, and for the skiers and boarders out there, if you learned to ski in New England, you can ski anywhere. “New England Packed powder” (blue ice with occasional groomer tracks in it) separates the pros from the joeys.

It’s not the view obscuring that’s really the problem, though it is a side effect. It’s the pressure exerted while squeezing that only works for the correct hand in scissors.

If you can figure out how to contort your fingers to squeeze the blades together enough, you can use the wrong scissors, but I just learned how to cut righty because I could never find good lefty scissors as a kid. Same reason I used the mouse righty.

By the way: The view of the line is going to be obscured cutting curves in the direction of the cutting hand no matter the side.

It was 5°F (-15°C) out. She would stand up and turn away when I opened the door to let her in. Then lay back down to watch us from outside after I closed it. The snow was so deep that The wind chill -5–10° probably wasn’t really affecting her at least.

They have the badminton rackets for knocking apples out of a wild apple tree across the field. We made a surprisingly tasty apple crisp with instant oatmeal and some vutter on the fire that night.

If you owe the bank half a billion dollars, it’s the bank’s problem right?

Sounds like the banks don’t want this problem.

Hatred is the only part of these people’s platform.

Maybe she should resign then. We’d all be happy to let her instantly fade into obscurity.
