Does anyone still actually like snow?

Snow brings out people's inner-child. They'll play in it, make things out of it, and slide around on it just like when they were eight.

I still love snow. I understand why people can hate it, but I think it breaks down so many of the social boundaries we sometimes throw up. That, to me, is a good thing.

Wear salt licks on your shoes? But then you might get chased by cows.

In all honesty, I would love to live with snow. I'd rather be cold and trying to warm up, not overheating and trying to cool down. I adore coats/scarves/gloves/layered shirts/long pants/thermal undies/thick socks/tightly laced sneakers, which doesn't exactly fit in with Australia. Even our coldest days are bearable with only a thick hoodie.

I don't like it as much as when I was a kid obviously, but it doesn't bother me really either. And since when does snow cancel work?
LOL well I don't know to be honest man, but it's cancelled college for me.

Why oh why won't it melt?!

Actually, I quite like the snow, my real issue is that all anyone has been able to talk about for the last week or so is snow, ice and variants thereof. *weeps*

I've only seen snow 2 times in my life, and i think its fun to play with, but i wouldn't want to live with it. Sort of like a hooker.

I'm 34 & I still love snow. (Fluffy stuff is useless though.) The rare snow storm that shuts down the town is like an unenxpected holiday. Slow, peaceful, and better yet--no family. :p

Once every few years I end up making a 7' snowman. I don't mind shoveling it. I love driving in it. Normally, driving is so boring. With snow & ice it's so much more fun & interesting. All it takes is a good estimation of the worst possible scenario, (i.e. if I start skidding, how far could I go, & what might I hit,) maintaining a safe distance from everything, and knowing how to come out of a skid & regain control.

And before anyone starts hating me, keep in mind no matter how much I (or anyone) enjoy snow, I don't have the power to make it snow more. My enjoyment doesn't mean you have to endure it more.

It was fun for awhile, especially seeing that it came during Christmas, but now its not EVEN snow. Its just powdery ice if anything and the ice makes all my town's pavements death traps waiting to happen.

BNut otherwise I still love the snow regardless :3

I hate the snow, it's cold and in the way. The only thing good about it is that I get a week off School because of it

Don't have to go to college which is great AND I don't have to see people who annoy the fuck out of me.

It's mixed for me.

Here in The Netherlands it doesn't usually snow so much as it did this winter, so the government was caught of guard. They had some problems keeping the main roads open but we manage. (Only like 10 cm snow max here, we have uberfail infrastructure for snow it seems).
They were nice enough to snowplow the bicycle lanes near my home so i can cycle up and down school and work without much danger.

Now the positive things: Having a wonderfully white world is ofcourse nice, but the main thing is that I work in a greenhouse which 'grows' (dunno how to say it) roses. The greenhouse heating can't keep up with the cold temperatures outside, so temperature in the greenhouse drops dramatically - and thus the roses grow less fast -> less work -> earlier done with work -> earlier home!

Still? I've always loved snow.

It can be an annoyance if I have to suddenly get somewhere.. but its fun more than anything.

This winter I completely lost my love for snow. Every time I go to school I have to walk this long ass straight street where cars come at my direction and they blow the cold wind on my face like fuck. Freaking hate snow. I want my global warming back.

I usually like it, as we don't get much of it where i live, and it usually goes fairly quickly, but now its just annoying

...yes? I mean, shoveling it is a pain, but it gets me out of school. And I can throw it at people.

I like looking at snow. I'm all for that. As for falling in it, no. It hurts. The huge bruise on my leg backs me up on this.
