I don’t rant nearly enough as I probably could. Mostly because I forget things after shaking my fist vigorously in the air after seeing or experiencing them. I’m sure a lot of you folks out there can relate. We see things every day that kind just make you go “Hmmm” or “What the fack!?” but soon as we get home we forget what they were and go on about our lives. But this comes to an end for me, as I manage to seemingly get my short term memory back, I’m going to remember and rant, ’cause it’s my patriotic duty or something.

Rant #1: Cities and their salt

Now if you live in a major city that is known to be hit by snow storms, you know every winter your car is going to be sand papered by the cities salt trucks. They’re out there all night just waiting by the side of the road, with eager anticipation of that first snow fall. That first snowflake even looks like it might hit the ground the call goes round the area for the trucks to dump salt with a quickness that’d make a person with high blood pressure head explode.

Here’s the thing though… what happens when that first snowflake falls and doesn’t bring along his snowflake pals? Your car gets powdered like a ho’s face from a pimp with baby powder in his hand. It’s an ugly, hideous time of year for pearly paint jobs and squeeky clean, garaged tires.

Everybody just rolls around because it’s the norm, we see it every year, and we expect but secretly loathe the winter when it happens. I think it’s time for the weather men/women to get their acts together and be able to tell these salt droppin’ scourges how much snow is going to fall with complete accuracy, so we don’t have to suffer thousands of powder white cars on the road every day.
