What part would be awesome? Not being able to go outside and play because the snow is chest-high? Co-workers kids were apparently only able to go out for small spats because the snow here was nuts. Extra bonus aggravation points when a boot is lost in a snowdrift.

Yes, this part. As a kid that grew up in the subzero temperatures of Minnesota, we'd look forward to storms like this. My parents threw us out of the house regardless of temperature. Having the snow to build cool forts was like a blessing from the heavens. The only bad part was having to clear the ice before we could play pickup hockey. |

To be fair, depends on the age of the kid. Little 4 year olds are going to sort of be at a loss.

Seriously, I used to LOVE being able to make snow tunnels of epic proportions. Nowadays I'm stuck walking around in town, looking at a brown muddy abomination that USED to be snow, but is now a semi-viscous salt/asphalt/water mix from hell. And it's at most 5cm thick, because EVERYTHING STOPS UP if it gets worse than that. Wait, I take that back, everything stops up the minute there's a hint of snow anywhere, with people running around wailing about how slippery the roads are. People these days are fucking pansies. Back when I was young ... |

Seriously. I grew up in Northern Va. (mostly) and learned to drive there, so driving in the snow is relatively easy and learning how to manage a car if you happen to start sliding a bit was a given. But now I live in Tennessee where frozen water falling from the sky is almost a myth to these people it seems. Schools close if there's a dusting, and people just go more retarded than I can attribute to their inbred status. As much as possible I refuse to drive in the snow these days, not because I feel snowy conditions are dangerous in and of themselves, but because Tennessee drivers in snow turn a quick jaunt to the store into an episode of "attempting not to die."

neg Maybe 2yr olds. There are pics of me at 3 out in a blizzard making snow forts. By 4 I was the neighborhood alchemist who discovered the recipe for turning snowballs into iceballs, thus initiating the first neighborhood arms treaty. Having four seasons is one of the great pleasures of life. I was loving this EPOD:  |

Growing up in California, but conferring with family that moved to Massachusetts, we've decided California has it right. Its awesome to grow up in a place where driving up to deep snow takes only about half an hour to an hour, but not actually being forced to live in it. Boston changed our once perfect feelings towards snow  |

Jesus christ. The FIRST THING I THOUGHT OF looking at that photo was snow tunnels. People just dont remember what it's like to be kids. I prescribe 2 months of distiled Calvin and Hobbes for this guy, stat! |

No, I had plenty of fun with blizzards as a kid, thanks. But now? Now they're just annoying when you live in the city and are stuck alone in your apartment for like 9 straight days. |

If that's the case, then you're like the Peter Pan of F13 that grew up and forgot how much fun snow CAN be if your imagination is lively enough. For shame. |

I relocated to Albuquerque NM recently and I have been really disappointed with the lack of snow here. It gets cold but any snow that falls goes poof within a day. Snow year round would get me down but a few months are wonderful. Of the six years I spent living in Maine what comes to mind the most was the fun I had in the snow.... that just how much black flies suck.

Snow is great when I am skiing. Not so great when it causes DC to shut down for almost a week.

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Seriously, if they really get in your way, kill them clean. Toying with animals that can experience pain is simply cruel.
