Yesterday, I…:
- Changed the oil in my snowblower.
- Put in the first fresh gas of the season.
- Got my boots, choppers, coat and wool cap out and ready to go.
- Got a pot of Korean beef stew ready to go in the pressure cooker.
If we wind up getting half an inch of snow, you have me to thank.
“Got my boots, choppers, coat and wool cap out and ready to go.”
Imagine paying outrageous taxes for the privilege of living on Hoth.
Then imagine your Hoth neighbors elect Jeffrey Dahmer, Beavis and Butthead, and Pol Pot to rule over you.
Welcome to Minnesota.
Imagine that scenario isn’t the worst.
The poor slobs in Illinois pay a median 15.01% in taxes; highest in the country, now. They pay that to prop up a bloated and corrupt government, a bloated and corrupt civil service, hundreds of thousands of welfare recipients, a black hole public transit system, an enormous police force to keep an army of homicidal, 75IQ negro thugs contained, corrupt labor unions and general waste in a city most wouldn’t get within 50 miles of.
I don’t get it.
My winter storm prep? None. I just won’t go outside.
Did you know that you can pay someone to clear your driveway and sidewalk for you? It’s true!
And we’d be remiss not to mention that city, Chicago, elected Beetlejuice for mayor!
Could be worse, UMMP. Pele has blown her top again. My friend says at night you can see the glow of Mauna Loa from Hill bay and Pele’s hair is flying everywhere on the East coast.
*Hilo bay*
Yep, an NE rift zone eruption. Not too bad so far, from what I hear.
If it gets worse, it might be a good time to pick up some cheap real estate as non-resident property owners re-evaluate their risk exposure to ML eruptions & panic sell.
If we wind up getting half an inch of snow, you have me to thank.
Better still, now that you’ve jinxed it, the bulk of the storm system that dusts the metro will dump the main load on the quaint little metro area 4 hours to your south.
So, yes, thanks, Mitch!
privilege of living on Hoth
Enh. Minnesota winters are pretty wussy, but I couldn’t live without SOME kind of winter.
I’d have thought that by being ready for winter, you’d end up with no snow whatsoever for a while. :^)

Until you move south and realize that snow, and especially cold, are grossly overrated.
Y’know what I hated most about MN? Even more than the cold and the dark and the degenerates and the taxes and stinking Somalis?
Getting a shock *every fucking time* I grabbed a door handle. Took me a full year to open a door without first touching my wrist to the handle once I btfo of there.
” I couldn’t live without SOME kind of winter.”
Me neither. I like the motorcycle riding and grilling out kind of Winter. If I want snow and cold, I can drive 45 minutes into the mountains and get snow and cold….but I don’t want snow *or* cold, so I don’t go up there in Winter.
I made a journey to the Kwik Trip for my morning coffee. Snow is just starting to come down heavy in Polk County.
A month ago Kwik Trip sold a dozen eggs for $2.99. Three weeks ago the price shot up to $3.49. Today? $3.99. That is a 33% increase in four weeks.
Tryin’ to figure out how Trump is to blame.

Nah. That’s how I feel about summer. Grossly overrated.
UMMP, everyone was yelling about how much Thanksgiving dinner cost this year. We had a game feed (venison and pheasants). I was gonna laugh at everyone until I added up the cost to get those pheasant in N. Dakota last year. I figure each one cost about $225.00. Enjoy them $4 Eggs! 😉
jdm, without hearty souls like you, the degenerates of Hoth would starve, or worse, move to Southern states.
Thank you for your service, sir.
The most wonderful time of the year! 🎄❄️⛷️
Now that the real winter weather is settling in, Mayor Mom-Jeans can claim success from the “ghost cruiser” campaign in Minneapolis for bringing down the crime rate. In reality, the thugs are just holing up for the winter cause its too much work to go out and “crime” when its cold – some went back to Chicago, the rest are just collecting their checks and will be back “on the job” come spring.
no matter how much snow we get, mitch can claim he saved us from the surge of snowfall which computer models confidently predicted would come
without his inspired leadership it would have been so much worse
thank you
