Here is a list of my snow-related grievances:
1) Three days before the "snowstorm" is supposed to arrive, and the supermarket is jammed with idiots stocking up on canned food and batteries like the apocalypse is coming. What is wrong with you people? I swear, there is a large segment of the population that really gets off on worrying about weather-related problems. These are probably the same people that built an underground shelter to ride out the Y2k "disaster".
2) The local news spending 90% of their coverage on the impending snow. It happens every year, people. And please, oh please, stop referring to it as "Winter Blast 2005".
3) That idiot in the Suburban driving in the fast lane on wet pavement with tire chains doing 20 miles an hour with their flashers on. I hate you!
4) The city of Baltimore who feels the need to coat every outdoor surface with a thick layer of salt before the first snowflake hits the ground. I have so much salt on my car that I am afraid that my car will disintegrate at the slightest provocation. My car and I both hate you.
5) The drivers who feel that the best way to drive their minivan around in the snow is to make lots of abrupt steering movements and slam on the brakes whenever they become afraid. Soccer practice is cancelled; go back to the suburbs and stay out of my way.
Thanks for your time. I feel better.
