Snow: Some Folk’s Obsession and My Indifference
I’m not going to complain about the snow, it is GOD’s will and I accept HIS will. I'm just have a few things I would like to mention about snow and how people deal with and react to snow.
Most students want it to snow so they don’t have to go to school. Some students realize that enough snow days means and extended school year.
Many adults want it to snow so they don’t have to work. It's cool until:
- The people who WORK at the stores can’t get to work, then they complain. Only because they want to go out and spend but have no problem that others still have to work.
- The event they purchased tickets for is cancelled.
- The flight for the trip they planned is cancelled.
- It snows too much and they have a lot to shovel. You asked for it.
- You want something from the grocery store and can’t make their to get it
I do not like shoveling snow and I make it a point to mention it whenever the snow fall is heavy. Yet shoveling snow is a treat because of the things I witness along with so of the most aggravating things people do. Like:
- People who use a shovel to remove snow from their CAR. Yes I said it their car.
- People who get out of their car and look at it like what happened, after driving up a hill has not been plowed.
- This morning it was below freezing and I saw a dude with his freaking pants sagging. Like Aimee says act like and adult not a dolt.
- Parents who have a male child or male children, who are old enough, who never hardly shovel snow. Angie knows who I’m talking about.
- Reporters who tell you how beautiful the snow is then one sentence later the say be careful its nasty out there. Wait is it beautiful or nasty? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it is beautiful when my eyes behold some sidewalk and pavement!
- Reporters who tell you how cold it is outside while they are standing their with no hat on their head.
- People who keep sending out emails or messages about every update from the local news storm tracker. You are not the only one that has a phone, tv, cell phone or internet access.
- Reporters who let you know when the snow is expected to stop so you can begin digging out but, two updates ago they tell you how shovel snow can lead to a heart attack and you should take it easy. Yeah uh, there are only so many hours of daylight during the winter months.
- People who do not NEED to be on the roads, that are on the roads. Stay off the road so the plows can clear it. I’ll admit, with the exception of this past storm, I am on the road to go shovel my mothers and mother-in-law out. I think that is an acceptable reason.
- People who act cordial to their neighbors when it snows, but ignore them otherwise. Oh now you want somebody to help you shovel? DOLT!
- People who, like Christine says, act like a snow storm is the end of the world. It’s snow, it will melt
I think next time it snows all the people who want it to snow so bad should shovel everybody else out.

Thanks for another informative website. Where else could I get that type of info written in such a perfect way? I have a project that I am just now working on, and I've been on the look out for such information.
