[quote=Dakota Gold;39189195]What I hate about this state?
The traffic, and the a s s backward road system.
quote]

I have no idea where you come from but where I come from the traffic here is a major delight. Rush hour for about 1.5 hours in the morning and evening. What more could you ask for? Road system is perfect for people who can differentiate direction and how the roads actually work. So sorry for you.

Again, not to drone on about it, but it simply became to much for me.
What a baby!

This is utter BS. The last time winter weather prevented me from getting to work was Halloween of 1991!

If you really want to see weather-related mayhem on the roads, just look at what happens in Atlanta or DC every time they get 3-4 inches of snow.

Atlanta got like 2 inches and their entire infrastructure was crippled. It was quite amusing to see.

I got to work. In my 1986.5 Supra Mk III, which is not known as a winter car. Of course, I only had to go a few miles.

As a current resident of the Atlanta metro, I will tentatively agree, but keep in mind that many of the issues we see down here are the result of ice, not snow. Last year was an ice + logistics problem. Even an experienced winter driver like me had to sleep at work that first night because I couldn't leave the area due to glare ice.

I hate poop...it smells and sometimes gets on your shoes. Baby poop is the worst.....followed by dog poop. I also hate the way people do stuff and then think they're soooooo cooool. "ooh......look at me.....I'm sooooo cooool."

I mainly see this in the big city.
