scottieking Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 Dear Winter,There's no easy way to say this so I'll get right to the point. We are over. Your time is done. Oh sure, we've had some good times this year. Even great. But the past few weeks, you've been a real bitch to deal with. It's not just the snow. It's the snow, and melt, and snow, and melt which is stressing my foundations. You've pushed me to push myself physically, and caused me to ice my lower back more than ever. Last week, you even caused my beloved Mazda to slam into the jackass who thought it would be a good idea to jet a left hand turn across two lanes coming out the in at the Beer Store. You are at the root of my sorrows and it's only going to get better without you around.So I'm leaving. Tomorrow. For the land of hoplites and Aggamemnon, for the shores of Adriatic. And you'd better be gone when I get back. If not, I'm going to have no recourse but to ignore you like that girl whose name I can't remember at a party, like maybe I went to Teacher's College with her or maybe she's one of those lost night from my whisky days, but either way I just can't take the chance that it's the latter and not the former so I don't say hi, so I duck out and hide in the kitchen. Yah, just like that.I know you can't help who you are, but you've hurt me, you've hurt my friends and family and now it's time for you to go.Ciao.
phorbesie Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 take up a winter sport, it makes winter a lot more fun
NewRider Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 take up a winter sport, it makes winter a lot more fun Like drinking?
timouse Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 dear winter,i thought we had a good thing going. it's my first winter with a dog and a furry hat, and it's been great. every time more snow fell, i convinced myself that this was simply more groundwater, and that it would all be fine. my very cool neighbour was more than happy to lend me his snowblower, and has even come over with his bobcat to clear the driveway.well, now it's personal. instead of playing a gig tonight, i'm snowed in thinking about my friends that i'm letting down. you had lots of opportunity to dump on me through the week and cause me to miss a day of work, but no, you cruel heartless bitch of a season, you pick saturday night to wail down endless snow on me.drop dead, winter.
bouche Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 take up a winter sport, it makes winter a lot more fun I tried bed racing a few weeks ago on the canal. I'd still rather play the home version.
phishtaper Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 Dear Winter,I woke up this morning, looked outside and realized why I love you so much. You are a stunningly beautiful bitch.ciao
wavinginthewind Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 Dear Winter,I woke up this morning, looked outside and realized why I love you so much. You are a stunningly beautiful bitch.ciaoDitto.Yes I know it has snowed a lot, compared to recent winter, but it has felt like the first real winter we've had in a long time. I like the seasons, including winter. It has a charm that only a sunny winter day can have.
phorbesie Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 i am so tempted to jump off my balcony! it's like marshmallow land out there
Kanada Kev Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 I'm hurtin' from all this shovelling! Damn ... i just gotta get a snow blower next winter. That will ensure a warm winter with no snow
Esau. Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 Winters working for me. I'm just hoping the temp remains low, I can certianly handle a lot more ice fishing.
AD Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 Dear Winter I just love you sometimes. Like this weekend north of Quebec City where so much snow fell on some hills that I happened to be snowboarding at. And then some of the roads closed keeping the crowds away, giving me fresh tracks well into the afternoon. My legs are so sore, but you gave me an awesome weekend. These naysayers maybe have good points, but sometimes you're a hell of a great guest! AD
ollie Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 I know what's worse than winter. Listening to co-workers regale each other with tales of the amount of snow in their driveways, as if it only snowed in their part of the city.
phorbesie Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 People who don't like winter and choose to live in a place that has 5 months of winter are really stupid.

badams Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 It's like a badge of honour around here... Who shovelled more. Who's Car was burried deepest. Who's back hurts more. Uggghhhh enough already. Most of us shovelled and most of us hated it. Time to move on... Where are you Spring?
MarcO Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 Dear Winter -Glad to have you back. Please continue to mercilessly punish and pummel those who resent your charms. Me, I love ya.-Marc.
Birdy Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 Dear Winter,Please don't listen to MarcO. As I sit here, typing away on my laptop looking at the beautiful sun glistening on the waves of the Atlantic ocean, I'm fucking hating that I need to get on a plane and come back to you in 4.5 hours. Screw you. Smooches,Birdy
Scarlet Begonia Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 Winter in Wovel Land, Don't be a hater get a wovel..... http://www.wovel.com/ P.S winter loves you.....
bouche Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 why not just add a shovel to the front of this?
Esau. Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 People who like winter are stupid. Interesting. I wonder where on the intelligence scale that puts people who don't like winter, yet willingly live in one of the coldest Ontario cities below the 50th parallel.
AD Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 As Phorbesie pointed out, Ollie has some interesting viewpoints on winter...People who like winter are stupid.People who don't like winter and choose to live in a place that has 5 months of winter are really stupid.
