This is fucking bullshit. I hate it here. What is this tundra bullshit? Bullshit. Fucking bullshit.

I'm going to march over to Volunteer park and combat this weather with my frisbee, god-fucking-dammit.

If it snows ten inches, it will be as deep as...an enormous penis!!!

A fire would be delightful, but setting the building aflame would suck, what with me being on the fifteenth floor, and all.

You mean on the hill? Damn, you folks get all the fun. Here I am downtown, and all we have is plain old rain.

Not frightful at all. I'm heading up to the slopes for some shredding.

See you up there Dan and Amy Kate.

Tell me about it. It was 78 degrees and sunny where I was yesterday. Fuck this town.

I agree with infrequent - I'll gladly take snow over rain, and if it's going to be as cold as it's been, snow is only an improvement.

This is what I get for emailing all those pics of me sunbathing on the deck in February to my relatives in the Midwest and Ontario.

Five days and counting until I can blow this town in favor of 85 degree weather.

I used to think he was cute but if he is that big then everyone in Seattle would have ridden it by now.....

That would make it the official welcome wagon or ride at the carnival everyone has ridden... I will pass.

Why the hell is it snowing? And why the hell is everyone in my office excited?

Damn it.

christ, guys... winter only sucked in November with the floods. It's been a colder winter, but not really that wet. It's been a perfect winter for the slopes, and mild enough for the city.

February was our early Spring. How soon we forget. So we traded months this year. shrug.

Snow rocks..:) At least there won't be a drought this year..;) On the flip side, hiking will be a pain since the snow wont completely melt out until late July/early August.

My fucking shoes have absolutely no traction on snow. I'm doomed. Doomed, I tell you. I'll slip and fall, and someone will see. Holy shit I hate it when that happens.

Alright, protest site has moved to Snoqualmie! Wagons ho!

February is ALWAYS nicer, and then we get rainy blustery cold SPRING weather. Spring does not equal nice weather in the PacNW, and NEVER HAS. Jesus, if you people haven't lived here long enough to know that, then shut the fuck up.

Every time it snows my direct tv goes out. Not a good day for catching up with Top Chef.

@30 I've only lived here since August, so yeah, I didn't know any better. Should I still shut the fuck up, or am I allowed to keep going "Holy crap, this is insane?"

We got 5" of snow here in MI last night. Take heart. Our winter's been really long, too.

I am not pretty enough to come there. And I do not drink. I take all liquid refreshment through osmosis.

You boyfriend is a siren, luring me onto the rocks. Please cage him.

@33, you have not been here nearly long enough. SHUT UP YOU OUTSIDER!!!

My Dear MPJ,

I can tell you are a lover. It is writ large on your psyche.

But, I must ask, as a member of the Abrahamic confession, a people who have suffered so much, why do you add to this collective history, this litany of sorrow, the holding of sexual congress with such a wild harridan as Mr. Poe?

He leads me to nothing but soul-wrenching, unfulfilled want. Wallingford residents can hear my wails in the night, the clawings of my shattered fingernails on drywall...I can only hope you are provided with more pleasurable outcomes.

People, get a room.

Or perhaps a small convention center.

It's snowing in Issaquah, it's snowing at Microsoft, and it's snowing at the place I'm supposed to spend the evening watching Battlestar Galactica in a marathon. All of these add up to irritation.

@30...actually it can mean nice weather in the PAC NW, you just have to go to eastern wa state to find it. :) Numerous days where its 55 and raining here ,it can be 65-75 and sunny over there.

Posted by Brian in Seattle | March 28, 2008 2:37 PM

Napoleon, just because your pink wink does not attract the massed desires of mankind like that of Mr. Poe is no reason to be bitter.

Get your own room.

Meh.

Posted by Jubilation T. Cornball | March 28, 2008 2:38 PM

Don't respond to that, Jew. Napoleon is right. We'll take this to a small convention center.

Obey.
