Apocalypse

[alias]

London is inches-deep in snow, the once-in-a-decade kind, and the hospital is running quarter-staffed because hardly anyone's been able to get in.

(And it's still snowing...)

adsflkj Why are you straightfacing at me this is not a country that carries tyre chains.

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

dead at you thinking chains are required for driving through snow. sadly, we still drive regular cars even when there's 876578678 feet of it.

:| Lucky you. I nearly crashed my car yesterday \o/

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

sobbing do you have a stick or something.

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

:/ No, an automatic like normal people.

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

were you driving in 1-2 gear at least.

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

:| No-one expects the Spanish Inquisition.

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

crying how is this anything like that. driving in 1st or 2nd gear helps. do you europeans not own a single plow.

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

Ahahah, plows in London. Did you not get the once in a decade part?

... I think they're finally gritting the side roads now?

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

i feel like you can make one. most snowplowers here are just regular people that attach giant plates onto the front of their trucks.

i don't know what gritting is.

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

:| You know how almost no-one in London drives a big-ass truck? Yeah.

Where they put salt and grit on the roads to melt the ice and give you some traction.

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

i feel like even if you are a country where snow doesn't happen a lot, it still happens!!!, so you should at least have some sort of back-up plan. :| besides gritting.

which, by the way, i hope you guys at least believe in wiper fluid.

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

:| Back-up plan? What is this nonsense?

Yes, yes we do. Or at least I do. Also, my car is snowed-in so I guess it's a good thing I live on-site.

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

... jesus.

whatever, it's snow. just slide it out.

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

:||| *huddles by the heater instead*

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

whatever i saw your high for today. it's goddamn balmy over there. :|

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

:| It's not my fault you live in the Arctic.

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

the arctic is many latitude degrees above me.

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

:| It's called exaggeration for effect. Shouldn't you be finishing your big bang?

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

finished that sucker with 1.5 hours to spare. i don't give myself special mod exceptions :pppp

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

Well, then. Write flashfic.

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

i have no inspiration. but we'll see. cult-anthro class is today and i can never understand a word that prof. says.

[kallistei.livejournal.com]

Obviously, the perfect excuse to write fic!

[illuminations.livejournal.com]

maybe. or i could write fic just for me. :p
