People who live in snow country mock the South's snow days
I also mock your bugs, because I fear them. Please, keep them, and we shall keep the snow, and all will be well.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

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.

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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I approve of her potty mouth! Not that she needs my fucking approval.
This too!
ION, I accidentally bought plain pub cheese instead of horseradish pub cheese, and it's just not very good.

But I should mention that since my bosses broke up the company, we got a new retirement plan, forcing me to pay off a loan against my old plan, which mostly wiped out my savings. So I wanted an early refund this year.

I get my W-2 on January 31 every year, as late as the law allows.

Yeah, I'd do my taxes now too (since I expect plenty back, yay buying a house) but I don't get my W2 until the end of the month!
