    While in college we considered any evening snow to mean the next day would have classes canceled. Usually wrong but we had fun.

    currently sitting on a tree that fell down during the hurricane while the chainsaw is getting repaired.

    I love long weekends.

      I hope you, your loved ones, and your place of living are okay.

      And I hope your power is back, if you’re one of the like MILLION affected.

      The great thing from their perspective is that even if they can’t make you be onsite, you can still have to work on snow days.

        you can still have to work on snow days.

        When wasn’t that true? Lmao

        But some school districts did try to pull that bullshit including the one for my kids. Ours reversed course after many parents (including me) started loudly complaining about it lol

    This basically the setup for Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead. It’s an anime where a guy has his soul drained by an awful company and when there’s a zombie apocalypse, his first reaction is to break into the corner shop and get some beer and have a day off. It’s a fantastic series about living life to the fullest, and the art is so great: it’s incredibly colorful, as opposed to most super-desaturated apocalypse media.

      My interest in anime has waned pretty significantly in recent years but did check it this one when I first heard about it. Absolutely excellent, fun, and very moving towards the end.

      That’s basically the plot of Shaun of the Dead too.

        Kind of, he doesn’t actually know about the zombies until after he goes to the store, he’s just on such hardcore autopilot.

    I feel bad thinking this, and don’t want anyone getting sick or dying for any reason, but the beginning days of the COVID pandemic were some of the happiest days of my life.

      Same. Learned a lot about myself during some mild isolation. And, most people are just loud and idiots :)

      The way they presented this concept in the anime was amazing. Just so much color!

    I’d imagine retail bosses would still like you to come in
