You’re right about it being different. That’s why the argument of driving in snow doesn’t hold up. Driving in snow that stays crunchy snow *IS easy. Northerners who have that as well as plowing equipment think it’s easy because it is for them.
The temperatures are another thing. They can keep them. Not a fan of negative numbers, regardless of which scale is used. Definitely not F, nope.
Or it just stays in the conditions where it’s more likely to sleet, which builds up and freezes into a sheet. Doesn’t matter what tires you have, what 4-wheel drive, where you’re from, or how much experience you have driving in snow… if there’s a lot of ice on the road, you will hit some slick spots, and how sure of your being immune to physics will demonstrate itself.
I understood that reference.
The challenge is always to find that first shiny thing to lose focus on instead of…

Internal monologue: “I’m scared of them because they are cooler than me, and maybe even smarter.”
Meanwhile that little block at the bottom is still doing its best to keep it all together. For now.
