If you're from New Jersey like me, or any state on the East Coast for that matter, I think we can all agree that we are fed up with Mother Nature. Here it is in the middle of February and the snow just keeps piling up. I think this post is highly appropriate since we've just received another 3 inches. While I'm positive there are tons of reasons why this snow can go kick rocks, I'm going to give you 5 of them that a lot of us can relate to.
- Hidden Ice Patches FROM HELL. Need i say more? Nothing is worse than casually walking down the street and suddenly sliding and falling as if you're Bambi fresh out of the womb. Not to mention falling on ice into the snow is FAR more embarrassing if there wasn't snow. Even if someone didn't see you, they see the wet marks on your clothing and they already know the deal. Later on you laugh about the little tumble, but at the time its just down right annoying, especially if you're in public.
- SHOVELING. First time, fine. Second, not that bad. Third time it gets to suck. With the 6th snow fall i can easily say were sick of this shit. I can guarantee that if you shoveled each and every time the snow fell, you probably have Popeye arms. What happened to the days when kids used to walk around with shovels and offer to shovel your walkway for 5 bucks? I had a kid come to my house asking for $20. Lets just say he got a whole face full of door, even though it would have probably been worth it.
- Adults cant play in the snow without looking crazy. Seriously, sometimes i wish i can just lay down and start making a snow angel with out looking like a complete jerk off. Even kids in their late teens can get away with building an igloo and sneaking in a few beers. I tried to have a little snow party. An hour into building the damn thing, we gave up and came inside feeling defeated because we knew we were just too friggin old for it. I even tried to go sledding at the state park we have here, and still, there was just something a little off about people in their twenties waiting behind little kids to go sledding down a hill. You don't really have any excuse to be out building a snowman unless you have kids of your own.
- Passing out drunk on your lawn can kill you. It's been a little while since this has happened to me, but its a fair warning to those who still party like little rock stars. Even if you make it home without falling on ice, or getting lost in the vast tundra we call "the way home", make sure that you make it safely in your bed and not to get your drunken slumber on outside. Your ass is gonna wake up a little drunksicle, if you even wake up at all. Take it from the side-walk bums that are no longer with us (RIP).
- We're just completely over winter. Hey Punxsutawny Phil, whats the deal? I feel like every single year that little bastard sees his shadow and blesses us with six more weeks of wintry bullshit. I'm so over that holiday and any person who takes weather advice from a groundhog. Being from New Jersey, we live for the summer days on the beach. The winter is nice in the beginning, but all this snow has me counting the days until i can see grass again. Ladies, i know you cant wait until you can throw on a pair of flip flops, or little cute sandals. As for you fellas, i know you cant wait to see some boobies in bikinis and not hidden under hoodies, sweaters or scarves. Mother Nature, i think its time for you to get off you period and give us the spring and summer.. enough is enough.
Feel free to add your own reasons why you think the snow can go f**k itself.
