Yes, yes you can.

I can't tell you how many times I've dreamed of doing just this.

We don't have time for that kind of analysis!

Better yet, just tuck in right on the rear bumper and you've got great gas mileage and wifi, the best of both worlds!

Well, Texas and Nevada are both in the northern hemipshere.

Is it really paying it forward when you proceed to tout your charitableness on the internet by saying "look at me I paid it forward!"?

Perhaps I have approached this poorly.

I'm not concerned with whether anyone is nice to me or not, I'm concerned with poor analyses that lead to unsubstantiated societal opinions. My sincerest apologies for dropping to and below your level.

I clearly wasn't, because I'm not familiar with the thread in question; I'm not a regular Giz reader.

They won't need to purchase salt or sand every year, but how do you expect that salt or sand to get out on the roads in a timely fashion with meaningful coverage? That requires a fleet of vehicles, maintenance on that fleet, and people to operate that fleet.

When the fuck did Sandy come into play in a single thing I've said? I have no fucking clue what you are talking about. Literally none.

I came to make fun of those who have no empathy or conception of another group of people's unfamiliarity with a given situation. I'll accept my many faults in life, but I'm not in a rush to accept this as one.

If your second paragraph is to hold true, then why should excessive snowy seasons always threaten or deplete a salt supply? There may be a finite amount of salt that a municipality can have, but shouldn't they have contingencies in places for building more storage facilities?

I don't think anyone should debate that point at all, but it's entirely relevant in that this all comes back to the level of preparedness than any given region has.

Congratulations, you've successfully managed a weather event that you experience many times a year! I'm sure the residents of Georgia and Alabama appreciate your smugness and will do their best to emulate the almighty JessInOhio when they next encounter a winter weather event of such severity in 2020!

I will be sure to give you a ring, disgustingly smug citizen who seemingly places his self-worth in life on living north of the Mason-Dixon.

Stupid southerners! Oh, wait.

That's Italian craftsmanship for you.

GOD WAS TRYING TO SEND YOU A MESSAGE. BUY A FOCUS ST INSTEAD.

That honestly sounds to me like someone poorly attempting an Irish accent, which makes it even better.
