You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

People who live in snow country mock the South's snow days, but we have no chains, no snow tires, no snow shovels, no snow blowers and only a limited number of trucks to spread salt and gravel. It would hardly be cost effective to have them for one to five days a year. As far as I know, the only snowplows are at the airport. Enough people don't know how to drive on snow and ice that many roads are blocked by cars that have spun out.

We do know how to deal with heat.

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

I ate my clementine already, so get off my fucking case. Also, fuck you Opera, clementine is too a word. Fuck off.

For dinner, I will be having the rest of the piece of chocolate cake that I couldn't finish for breakfast. Did I mention I ate a clementine? Also, fuck off.

I approve of ita's food choices today.

I also mock your bugs, because I fear them. Please, keep them, and we shall keep the snow, and all will be well.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

People who live in snow country mock the South's snow days, but we have no chains, no snow tires, no snow shovels, no snow blowers and only a limited number of trucks to spread salt and gravel.

See also PNW. Though I don't think we have any trucks for salt or gravel.

It snows, we stop and wait for it to go away. When that is a day once or twice a year, fine. When it's snowpocalypse, we're fucked. It's just what is.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, even Tennessee snow days were earned. Those curvy mountainous roads were treacherous on a good day. You don`t have to add much more than a scattering of snow before they`re truly dangerous, and not going to get cleared.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Did you know the IRS doesn't start processing tax returns until the 14th or so?

ION, taxes are done and filed!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wow, I haven't even been able to get my W-2 yet.
