If they do overcome their fear long enough to actually go outside, they’ll forget why they went out in the first place. Cue laugh track… ---

Silly Rick Jay: get thee hence and get your pilot’s license. A mere 5,000 feet (that’s 1,500 metres in Canuckistanian) overhead there a beautiful sunny day. There is nothing like popping up through the clouds to find the conditions are actually CAFB. That’s CAVU but with a sense of humor. Visibility will be around 93 million miles. Have fun. Tail winds, MM ---

Yes but it then doesn’t give you the chance to mess with their minds, I am now apparently 107 years old, next time I check in I might be 4 years old. Love to see what the data miners make of that ---

> [@John\_Mace](#): > > Try living south of the Arctic Circle, my Canuckian friend! 😉 Try checking out where latitude 42°0’N runs. 😉 Hint: It’s the northern border of California. It also cuts through the southernmost parts of Ontario, a few bits of which are further south than the northern California border. Most of the big population centers of southern Ontario, including the OP’s house, are at about the same latitude as Oregon. > [@Whiskey\_Dickens](#): > > No kidding!

I got fed up with snow shoveling and hired a snowplowing service at the beginning of January. My expectation was, naturally, that this would have a profound and perverse effect on the weather. But what I actually expected was that as soon as I signed up, the sun would come out, flowers would burst into bloom all over the place, and the birds – with their special instinctive knowledge of an unnaturally early sunny spring – would all return from the south and start tweeting in my window with annoying Trumpian zeal. I was all set to take full credit for all the cheery sunshine. Instead, the white shit that was incessantly falling from the sky just turned to rain. Sorry. But as noted, at least you don’t have to shovel rain, fuckstackers. ---

You are in the rebel provinces of Upper Canada. When you & your neighbors accept [farting noise] as your President, and take his mark on your right hands and foreheads; then he will allow once again to shine on you that light you call the sun, but which he has revealed to his followers is in fact his anus. And you shall know the sweet, sweet enlightenment that “sunlight” is in fact the asspiss of [farting noise], the one true living god. ---

I’m pretty much the opposite of you. I LOVE cloudy days. 🙂 While others are bitching about how “gloomy” it is, I’m straight-up “Mister Roger’s Neighborhood”. Happy as a lark. The thing about it is, down here in D/FW, we are in the middle of a period of “severe clear and drier than a popcorn fart”. It’s torturing me and has had me sick as junkyard dog - headache, congestion, sore throat, and phlegmy cough. Shall we trade? 😉 ---
