also Osborne is the most redneck street possible in philadelphia

it was a terrible apartment too.

Keith

can we agree that south philly sucks

Peen

Sure. South Philly seems to think it's its own city, like man I'm not from Philly I'm from South Philly. Rocky was a while ago guys and South Philly sucked then too.

Keith

south philly: where the only other place you'll ever go to is the jersey shore

Keith

oh man Snoop Dogg is playing at the TLA sunday

Dog

the jersey shore is basically just an extension of philadelphia anyways

CorporateLogo

The shorelines south of Atlantic City anyway

Dog

well yeah we don't consider the north even part of the shore

Peen

Jersey shore's nice because it's close but I wouldn't do more than a day there at this point. I've still got a soft spot for Ocean City but it's too dryyy for my adult needs.

KrunkMcGrunk

The Jersey Shore is where all the guidos from Philly, NY, and NJ hold Guidopalooza each summer.

avalon :^:

Peen

I've heard Avalon is nice, it's one of the places the missus and I were thinking about going this summer.

Scribemite

My office located in Hazlet, NJ closed at noon. They said everybody can work from home for the rest of the day.

I have been doing this all week anyway here in King of Prussia, PA, so no weird white sky commute home for me to continue working.

The roads here just look wet. I was thinking of traversing out into the blinding wilderness to get some lunch.

Dog

king of prussia is so pathetic right now, just miles of heavy snow and then no accumulation

Gafoto

All this talk of New Jersey is making me depressed.

It's not even snowing in Lancaster at the moment.

Strange storm indeed.

Peen

They were saying on the news that Lancaster was pretty much the dividing line between snow and no snow. I figure it's because the Amish have no power to knock out so Nature doesn't need to fuck with them.

Everyone keeps talking about how it's going to blizzard later here in Philly and I don't get it; I'm looking at the weather.com radar map and the big blue dot is moving away with nothing else in sight, where's this snow emergency again?

Supposedly that same blue dot is going to swing back around and hit us with round two.

My aunt and uncle have a house on one of the back bays. It's the family's summer hangout. It's really nice down there.

Peen

Ahhh frick. I looked at the hour-by-hour and they say we're gonna start getting slammed between six and seven. So long as my wife and I can get home ok that's cool.

Keith

if your wife can't get home, i'll pick her up for you

Peen

Thanks but no need, they're closing City Hall at 3 today and she gets to go home early. Since they don't close the libraries without 3 feet of snow on the ground I'm left here to toil away until 5 abloo bloo bloo

Dog

I'm leaving now because I'm lazy.

DrZiplock

Bastard.

Dog

also I want to run out to the house before it gets too bad and pick up my PS3 so I can play it this weekend


I mean that's basically a work meeting right there so

Keith

the snow finally started sticking around 8 or so

the roads are super slippery

The Geebs That Is A Pony

so where I live we aren't supposed to get snow again til next wednesday? and it's supposed to be 37-40 degrees when that happens, so it'll melt basically immediately?

dang maybe that patch of snow on the roof of my car will finally melt off

Graves

It was all fucking retarded slushy hail shit all day, but the snow started sticking about an hour ago.

It's supposed to continue snowing til tomorrow afternoon.

behhhhhhhhhhhhh and I need to be at work by 7.

I'm gonna stay in tomorrow, though, chill with my ex, maybe we'll go to a friend's and smoke.

Fucking winter is bullshit.

DrZiplock

Is rob here? Or hell, any of the philly people?


Office has a two hour delay, so I'd have to be there by 10 and I'm just trying to get an idea on if I'm gong to just call in and say I'm working from home (irking my boss) or just head on in. How are the roads out there? I don't think Lancaster got nearly as much as you all.

Usagi

Well all that rain we were forecasted? Meteorologists are liars

Snow blowing sideways and dumbass me didn't bring work home with me, argh

nealcm

this snowicane is pretty cool

snow blows up, sideways, then down for a few seconds and back up for a while

Shazkar Shadowstorm

it snowed all day and all night

they cancelled classes today, which NEVER happens, like this is the first full cancellation we've had... but i don't have friday classes anyway

apparently it snowed 30+ inches at mount snow
which is where ski team is going tomorrow
but hey i'm still fucking injured and probably shouldn't risk snowboarding but that is just infuriating, i hate ittttttttttttttt

We live near the park city mall. Roads are pretty slick, according to the wife. She nearly slid out into traffic on her way to work today.

Yea, they're slick in downtown too.

The girlfriend is not having a good time getting to Millersville and I already sent a "fuck it, I'm not coming in" email. Hooray for working from home.

Dog

I'm at work

DrZiplock

How bad were things?

Dog

The main roads were basically just wet

back roads terrible
