I mean, not a wool sweater, but a nice mid-weight sweater and just the sweater. Not a coat over the sweater. Or even better! A sweater coat over a T-shirt! And boots. October is when I can break out my boots again. BOOTS!

I faked three instruments: baritone, mellophone, and sousaphone.

Do you pass the pigment test? Because that’s kinda step 1 in the cops checklist.

after police closed the road to traffic to allow protesters to have “unimpeded movement.”

I have been to Festival about 9 times, and the main reason it is because of reason #4, I always come back because I feel like there is a part of the city I did not see. Because of how crowded it was this year at the events (I did LOVE seeing you and Panama in person, by the way!) I think my next visit to NOLA will…

Driving past a police cordon and driving the wrong way on a one way street in order to drive into a protest and hit someone seems pretty damn willful to me.

Come to California and watch the grass die.

I’d be happy if my grass died and I never had to cut it ever again.

As a lifelong ATLien this tracks. Everyone in the South knows May/June, September/October are the entire reason to live here.

Crab legs are better. Easier to eat and more meat.

He’s talking about the process for eating steamed crabs in Maryland. It is a lot of work and you find out real quick if you have any cuts on your hands when Old Bay gets in there

Probably not so much the station but the people using them.

October has Halloween, and immediately brings discounted Halloween candy, which is a lovely balm to the desolate stretch that is early November.

My best friend and I had a debate about which month is worse, February or March. I say March, she said February. I won by pointing out that the weather in February and March is about the same and by March you’re over the snow (there was a snowstorm on the first day of spring this year). Also, March doesn’t have any…

The month that sucks is February. The only good thing about February is that if you are paid monthly, you basically get a small, one-month raise. 

Everyone knows March is a trash month, not october!

Good list. However— as long as I’m the one who’s going to be washing the dishes, I’m going to rinse them if I get a chance. A few seconds of effort now can save a good minute or two of irritating work later. That suits my lazy nature.

electric vehicle first adopters....

This is an excellent list, although I echo the sentiment that October isn’t so bad. November is when it starts to truly get cold and not even a day of turkey can restore the balance.

No way! It is the best month. How about we swap in electric vehicle first adopters, the ones who dismiss all problems with a call for massive lifestyle changes and say that it is easy. Screw that.
