Not going to lie man, after 26 years here the heat still fucking sucks constantly every summer, you learn to deal with it but you never get used to it.

kind of like the snow and cold here....you never really get used to it

How many of these are illegal mexican immigrants :P

only Cripple is an illegal mexican here

haha pavement is immune to weather, he'll play soccer in the summer in jeans and run around in snow in his underwear. then again, we're talking about the guy who had to be forced out of a soccer game because he "didn't feel" the broken bone he got after a hardcore slide tackle

Yeah except you forgot the whole thing where, once someone has been unemployed for long enough where their unemployment benefits expire, or they don't get benefits to begin with they no longer appear on the list of unemployed people, these percentages are just estimates based on people who appear on the unemployment rolls every month for collecting unemployment. Anyways the numbers are skewed, you should try looking up true unemployment rates by state. Of course I wouldn't expect eurotrash to know any of this which would also go to reason they also wouldn't try commenting on it.

[Jerome Scuggs]

yeah it snows in Louisiana every 5-6 years, this year was the first time since the 6th grade that it stuck, and the first time in my memory that it snowed twice in a single winter
