Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Ann, that's a ferret.

But as a midwesterner who grew up in the snowbelt, I reserve the right to make fun of folks in the northeast who bitch about snow or run to the grocery to stock up on toilet paper, bread and milk at the announcment of a storm.

Me, too. And having lived in the South for many years, I also reserve the right to make fun of people in the North who complain when the temp reaches 90 in the summer.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I also reserve the right to make fun of people in the North who complain when the temp reaches 90 in the summer.

I tried that, was told people were dying of it, and so let it go.

On the other hand, all your first world problems? Freaking hysterical. hard to breathe, in between the laughs.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

At this point, I'm thinking maybe they just want a field trip.

That was my thought. Field day in Boston on the company dime.

I think I am irked by this in Rick's post:

The weather itself is pretty modest by the standards of most of the country

The rainfall for this Friday alone was 4.55 inches. Not modest by most standards.

well, you see, it's not the heat, it's the humidity.

Hm. how about, "everyone else does it, so why shouldn't I join in the fun?"

Something something about uphill, both ways.

But...but...that's hot. We get a lot of humidity there too.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I think the thing to remember is, that we should all reserve the right to make fun of anyone else. Because it's funny!

I would like to have this on a t-shirt. Or a button, maybe. Decorative plate.

I also think that being able to bitch about the weather is half the fun of living anywhere. Let's just blame Paris Hilton and her ill-gotten fame. Perhaps she had the weather god's phone number and now he's moody because of all the Prince Albert in a can crank calls he's been getting.

Trust my rage

I am bummed that no one posted the cupcake recipe. It sounded so good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Something something about uphill, both ways.

In my day, we LIKED it!

One thing that I LOVE about the rain is how rainbow-y it's been. We've been seeing lots of rainbows... Rainbows = pretty.
