    I actually just became a grandfather two days ago. I’m looking forward to, “Listen, things were different back in the nineteen hundreds…”

        Seriously, we had snow back then. Lots of. But the world has moved on

        I could tell my kids about snow days, school bus sliding into the ditch, walking home when no one could get up our hill. I could talk how anything not cleared quickly, icier over and remained for the winter. My kids will be able to tell stories about me jokingly wishing to get enough snow to try out my new snow blower. They’ll tell about the arguments about clearing the driveway in case we need to go out, vs waiting a couple days for it to melt

      I have a buddy in his late 30s who just became a grandpa. He had his kid in high school when he was like 17. His son is now like 19 and just had a kid of his own. That shit is crazy

      Have they asked you in advance if you even want that?
