Tough day Atlanta?

[delatlanta1281]

Atlanta really struggles with an inch of snow huh!? :-)

Hey






















fuck off.
And while you're doing that, go fuck yourself. Regnu's (a member here) wife slept in a restaurant last night. What did you do? Lived in Maine. Id rather sleep in a restaurant. oooooo did I come off like a dick? Refer to your first post you douche.

yeah, I'm not sure the guys in the NE deal with ice so much either. we usually have ice but no snow. there's a big difference between a foot of snow and 1" of ice covering everything.

Exactly, also it doesn't help to have a shitty state and city government. COA actually did fine, but that's INCORPORATED Dekalb. Go outside of that its horrible. Decatur is a mile from me, its own city, and it is completely iced. Good news though, saturday it will be 60, and OP will still live in Maine.

I was 8 in 96 prob wasn't too up to date on my news at the time ... Not trying to have a pissing contest here man just saying no need to take something personal over a joke

Please refer to my earlier post, OP's attempt at humor was sorely lacking.

Are we being big babies here? Completely inappropriate jokes are always welcome, but to get a good reaction, they need to be funny.

It usually takes some modicum of intelligence and wit to make a funny quip.

OP is a failure in this regard.

OP has access to the internet. Op should read and research for 5 minutes before starting a thread. You want to be a shock jock? Thats fine. OP is now a shock jock because he sits behind a screen and likes to type crap.

Yeah, that is terrifying. Snow is one thing, ice storms are completely different. A month or so ago I was stranded in New Hampshire and wasn't able to get home to CT for 2 days because of an ice storm. Basically a lot of places were shut down and everyone was advised to stay off the roads.

And about 6yrs ago I had to drive home from a bar with about 1/2" of ice on the ground. A normal 5-10min. ride home easily took me an hour.

I am not trying to be a dick, I just don't understand why people are freaking out?

dick.

Seriously, Why is this making national news? Mind you I live in Arizona, so when it rains people are terrible at driving, but people aren't driving off cliffs and shit like you guys are in Ga.

Spencer is one of my favorite bloggers. On point as usual.

People down here suck at driving when the roads are dry and the sky is blue. Throw some snow and ice into the mix and yeah, you've got a clusterfuck. It took me 7 hours to get home from work; not because I suck at driving in the snow, but because the roads are literally flooded with cars.

I was getting it pretty good on some backroads, though. Should have brought a camera.

People are terrible at driving in the rain pretty much everywhere. Abandoning mass amounts of cars on the side of the highway because you haven't moved in 5 hours should be national news. There are other southern cities that were and can in the future be affected by a storm and pro government planning. It needs to be highlighted and learned from.

Try driving on ice/snow on summer tires. Even my old FWD car got stuck just trying to move from the driveway.

Because the roads are solid ice, and you're kinda fucked if you don't have studded tires, which no one down there has. Not even the Northeast has ice like that. Rain will make the roads more slick than usual, but ice makes them frictionless.
