It's Winter, Stop Complaining Already

I have something to tell you that may surprise you.

You ready?

Really?

Ok, here we go.

It's winter, and winter is cold.

I mind blowing, I know.

The reason I tell you this is because everyone, and I mean everyone, is complaining that it is cold this winter. Unless you live in Australia, in which I am led to believe that you are complaining it's too hot. In which case you can rot in hell.

But I digress.

The surprising fact that it is cold in winter seems to stem from the fact that we, in Canada, forgot that we live in a land where winter happens. During the summer there is some sort of mass forgetfulness, kind of like one of those flashy memory wipe things from the Men in Black movies. I think it's called "The Sun."

During the time that this sun thingy is out and dominates the weather we just up and forget that we are in Canada. We seem to think we live in Florida or something so that when this winter thing happens we get all surprised and forget how to drive.

Listen, I get it. Uncomfortable sucks. High gas bills suck. Not being able to feel your finger tips suck. Also being a whiny child sucks but I don't see that stopping you!

You know who has the right to whine? Texas. That's right, the "bigger, badder, born to be bad" state is experiencing more snowfall then it knows what to do with. Ok granted by "more snowfall" I mean "millimeters" but considering it usually gets none I'm willing to cut them some slack.

Btw: for those readers who aren't in Canada please feel free to replace the word "Canada" with wherever you are as long as it got a butt load of snow!

Also the title of this weeks post is an exact quote from my doctors receptionist who would know from people whining about the cold.
