Snow day chaos

As I write, most of my coworkers are jammed up against the windows watching chaos unfold below. It's a snowy day - not an uncommon phenomenon in the winter - and the roads are crap. There is a grand total of 6 OC Transpo articulated buses jacknifed in the intersection in front of my work complex. I was on one of those buses. I got out and walked the rest of the way. What is it about the first really snowy day that makes people forget about how it is between the months of December and March? Why do people walk around exclaiming "Golly gee, it's bad out. Why is it so hard to get around?" Duh. It's freakin' winter, folks. It happens EVERY YEAR, without fail. Get yourselves some decent snow tires and get in the game. What is currently transpiring beyond my office window does not improve my outlook on the fate of mankind. We are dodos. Doomed to extinction by mass stupidity.

Oooh. Pizza lunch today.
