Snopocalpyse 08 was both outrageously fun, and mind bending frustrating! But this guy got me through the rough spots with his neurotic entertainment:
This odd man was de-snowing his car down the street from me, and every once in a while he would yell, "Get off my shoe, snow!"
It snowed 4 times, and he de-snowed his car each time. His car isn't even that great of condition. The paint is oxidized and scratched up in places.
Now I'm yelling a modified version all the time.
"Get off my plants, snow!"
"Get out of my air, rain!"
"Get off my table, dust!"
"Get off my couch, dog!"
This guy was 16" of pure ice dagger danger!
After I knocked his sorry, and yet impressive, ass down!
We had a poopload of snow, and it was gorgeous as all get out. But after a few days it was downright annoying to drive in. I bought my first pair of cable chains and that made a HUGE difference. Unfortunately it didn't help the huge moguls which made for the bumpiest ride ever, or when you'd hit those clear patches of pavement. Also, there were a lot of assholes out there trying to get up hills despite spinning wheels. Those were mostly redneck type men, and usually in pickup trucks, trying to prove something. This one ass tried at least 10 times to get up this driveway when there was a clear parking space right next to the drive way. ASS! "Get off my nerves, ass!"
Oh yeah, and I sprained my foot. It still hurts. Every time I walk a dog, I aggravate it. Owie. And I also missed Santarchy this year because of the snow. I couldn't cross a bridge with my chains because they all had grating that would chew up my chains.
Back to fun. Fishtailing with chains and 4WD is Fun!!! Oh yeah, I have 4WD. Subaru's are the new Volvo. You want to get around in the snow like a pro? Subaru!
