A rant on why I hate the winter.. kind of funny coming from a Canuck. :D
- It's cold. Period.
- It get's dark around 5:00 pm
- Any unprotected skin gets frost bite
- When it warms up just a tad bit it gets slushy
- The underside of your pets (ie when you walk your dog) becomes covered with slush
- Wet socks and pet paws smell
- When there is a snow storm you become trapped in your house
- After shovelling the driveway it snows even more
- After re-shovelling your driveway the snowplow comes and blocks your entrance with snow again
- Snow is a great camouflage for mysterious things if you catch my drift.
- Freezing ice and black ice causes accidents
- Winter is very cold and if you stand outside long enough you will freeze and die.
- All this snow and slush makes cars high speed moving dirt piles
- You constantly have to fill up with antifreeze
- Snow and salt contribute to the depreciation and rust of your car
- You need snow tires
- On clear sunny days it is very cold.
- Windchill makes it even colder.
- All the summer activities I love to do I can't because its winter
- I get tired easily in the winter - I also expel more energy to do simple things
- Sometimes when I walk - particularly on slushy days - I kick snow up on to the back of my pants.
- With coldness - means you have to buy clothes to keep you warm
- Nuclear fallout would mean it would become very cold - winter like.
- People are more prone to becoming sick; if not they are sniffing and sneezing everywhere
- I had a hard time finding neoprene (ie Can coolers) for my reef tank because it was nearing winter
- At night you need more blankets
- During a power outage because of a snowstorm or icestorm this could result in the death of your reef tank
- Winter means the heating bill goes up
- Winter brings the nutcases inside because it's too cold for them outside
- Snowballs sometimes hurt
- Some of my favourite sport you can't watch or play because it's just too cold.
- People are miserable during winter - like me
- I get jealous of people who go to warm places to escape the cold
