    Honestly, once it got to the nighttime part, I WAS going to turn it off...then came the "take me now Satan" part. XD

    It was bad here in Milwaukee, but not nearly as bad as they're showing in Chicago. Was it Lake Shore Dr. they were showing, and it looked like a scene from Life after People?
    It'll be a storm for the ages. It took 3 hours to shovel everything, and that's before the plows went through. After an hour, I was pretty much acting like Chester @ 3:45.
    Happy you got a cup of cocoa Mr. Bum!!

    Man I hear all this about some crazy mid-east to east coast snow storm, while us here are the west coast are just like "What's goin' on? Snow storm? We haven't gotten a flake here all year".... Which makes me kind of wish some of the storm would make it over here, cause I want snow :/...

    In New Jersey, we got all our snow (15 inches or so) last week. Now it's just a risk of ice, but otherwise, it's not too bad. It's not even too terribly cold.

    I dunno, I've heard there's more on the way, but maybe I'm still hearing the echoing voices of every damn person I've spoken to in the past week.

    doesn't look like too much snow to me, of course I'm Canadian so....
  • PLA
    Silly yanks think they're having a snow storm. Swede here.

    Yeah, can't help but to comment whenever I hear the southerners whine about all the snow and cold. Of course all my friends in the south then tell me to shut up and let them complain...

    And a Finn here, hi.

    Winnipegger here. We have snow from November to April. So from all the northern prairies... *points* Haha.

    But as long as you don't call in the army to shovel you out, at least you're better than Toronto. :P (Sorry guys, you'll never live that one down.)
  • tiomela
    HAHA!! That makes my day every time I see it.
    I live on the West Coast of Canada so we might get 15 cm in a good snowfall. Still, that doesn't look like a lot of snow to me either.
  • Iselilja
    Couldn't agree more. Whatever that is, it's not a blizzard.

    In Norway, where I just happen to live, temperature can fall down to -22 F. Now that's cold, and try adding a real blizzard on top of that; then you're allowed to complain.
  • Slowking
    I'm from germany. We are not exactly the arctic circle, but this and last winter we had way more snow than that. Ofcourse there wasn't nearly enough salt to keep the streets free, [sarcasm]because after last winter nobody could have known, that there are still hard winters.[/sarcasm] -.-
    But we managed without too much problems and with no drama. I don't get why the americans act like it's the end of the world.

    I was frozen today!
  • supersonic68  - About 2 feet in Toledo OH, which never happens!
    See above ^

    Don't worry, bum, once you see another movie you get to sit in a warm, warm building!...


    CHANGE!!!!!

    I was half expecting after every hour, he slowly gets buried in snow as time passes. But I guess Doug really doesn't want to dig himself a hole and then dig out. That is just cold.

    Boy do I enjoy the balmy weather of Victoria, BC, Canada! :D
  • tiomela
    Haha. Me too. Well, the warm weather of Vancouver Island. It's 13 degrees Celsius out right now. :D

    Yeah, you guys haven't been the only ones experiencing the snow storms. I live in Florida (for now) but ALL of my family lives in Ohio, and I will be joining them here in less than 3 weeks time. They have been getting POUNDED with snow as of late, just like you guys. I think even when I get there, I'll get to experience maybe one more blizzard before spring time hits.

    Oh, and you wanna know how you get snow indoors? Go outside, grab some, bring it in, and dump it on people. Or, in your case, After Effects. :P Both are equally annoying, yet magically prettiful at the same time.

    Bah, wussies. If that's a snowstorm, then what we have in here pretty much 5 times a week is a Snow Apocalypse (did I write that right?). =]

    It's not so bad at the time of Doug's recording, but you should have seen what it was like a couple of days earlier.

    Check these out; Rob linked to these a few days ago.

    Boston has had at least two feet of snow on the ground since Jan 5. right now, it looks like a white Grand Canyon around here. I'm surprised you still had visible asphalt.
  • Carteeg_Struve
    avatar
    Amen. Another Masshole, here. As soon as the camera panned down and showed that the road was still visible, my first thought was: "Pussy."



    Then I thought: "Oh yeah. The snow report I'm watching.... Hey! Look at that. What a wimp!"

    I'm surprised you didn't do a quote from Wierd Science:

    "Do you realize it is snowing inside my room, goddamn it?!"
  • Gailim
    I feel you pain Doug, here in Tampa Bay it got all the way down to 64 degrees today, truly shocking. I had a beach day planned but had to cancel.
  • ScreamingMantis  - Oh please.
    avatar
    Sorry, but I dont really think you feel anyone's pain who got snow. It's 14 degrees farenheit here in Buffalo, NY right now, and I almost broke the window of my car trying to free it from being encased in freakin' ice.

    It's posts like this that make me wish I could vote thumbs up AND thumbs down.

    BTW, I had to drive from Chicago to Indiana back home. It took me 4 friggin' hours, and I had to park in a cul de sac where nobody plowed for 3 days, and was trapped unable to get back to work.

    Snow is evil.
  • albinotanuki
    Poor Chester. We'll get you inside the movie theater and we can watch "Tangled" together (another injustice for Channel Awesome not to take you to go see that movie).
  • satireknight
    Awwwww, poor Chester A Bum! Somebody bring him a nice box, a cup of hot cocoa and a blankie. And some nice alcohol and drugs.

    Whenever a blizzard or a snowstorm passes through, I sitdown on the couch, and pop in "The Day After Tomorrow." Why would I was a film about the next Ice Age you might ask? ...Uh, ...HEY, LOOK AT THE PRETTY BUNNY, LOOK AT THE PRETTY BUNNY.

    "I was frozen today!" Thats the best quote ever. (or an Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr.Freeze quote.)

    It's not that bad here in austin but it is snowing....which for Austin is unusual. I feel your pain tho Chester....That was me last year...

    This weather is crazy. Really, really crazy.

    For my area it's been pretty warm, which is weird... as I live in San Francisco... you know... the city that's covered in fog most of the year... We've been having record highs..

    Then again if it was snowing that would be even weirder, while record highs for February are weird... snow all together is even weirder...

    I had a snow day from my college classes yesterday and today, I was slipping and sliding all over campus. However, I was able to stay on my feet. Poor Chester. Out in that cold. One of my professors, who is from Tennessee got up three times on Tuesday night expecting to see walls of snow. He said in my class tonight that the meteorologists lie to us here in Michigan. But then again, we eat blizzards for breakfast in Michigan!!!!

    and so the apocalypse came not in righteous flame... but light fluffy snow.

    This video is all my feelings on winter bundled up into five and a half horrifying minutes. I feel your pain, Chester.
