At 2:00 AM this Sunday, a hurricane is going to sweep right through my home state of Connecticut.
We never get hurricanes.
We aren't ready! We're going to lose our homes! Our power! Our internets!
Oh yeah, and it might go all Day After Tomorrow in New York City too
/melodrama
It's kind of annoying. I like big storms, but I don't like big stores that also break my house and kill the power for days.
The way the news is hyping it up, you'd think God was about to go all Sodom and Gomorra on our asses. Which, considering all the New York Yankees fans here, wouldn't be too surprising
Comments
By the way, if I stop posting on Sunday, either the power has gone out or I've taken a tree to the head and died.
'My biggest gripe with America is its unrelenting ferocity in respect to the destruction of its own inhabitants.'
And that's just the homicide rate, hyuk hyuk hyuk.
But I hope the storm winds down early before it crosses the coast, or at the very least doesn't do much damage on it's way through.
Be safe everyone!
So my dad just dragged me off to get emergency supplies, and the supermarket had a big wall full of water bottles and gallon jugs. They were all out. :l
It feels like we're preparing for the apocalypse or something.
Maybe I'll liveblog the hurricane.
It's like living in Minot's valley next to the river. It's cheap living there, because when there is a flood they are the first houses to be annihilated so few people want to invest in homes there.
I feel the same way about people in the Bible Belt. Living in the Bible Belt is like living in Tornado Alley.
> I live in Montana. We have hurricanes all the fucking time and you don't see me complaining.
LOL I SEE MORE
Edit: Duh, meteorology.
I thought this would be a "hah! And so will you! BECAUSE WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE ONE DAY!!!" kind of thread.
Anyway, best of luck to everyone on the East Coast of the US and I hope this hurricane turns out to have been [shades on]... overblown.
Thanks
>> He would knock four times
OH GOD. MY DAD KNOCKED FOUR TIMES ON MY BEDROOM DOOR THIS MORNING.
>>Forzare, where in CT are you?
Somewhere in New London county.
>>Boo, we only get floods and sometimes wimpy hurricanes.
We hardly ever get hurricanes. I can't remember the last time we got directly hit by one.
^^ I'm not really that close. I'm kind of closer to the northern edge.
