the coldest day

January 26th, 2007 by jay

oldmanwinterso I heard tell at the water cooler at work that today is supposed to be the coldest day in 20 years! I certainly don’t know if that is true or not but I’ve got a plan to find out: Rather than checking up on old weather dot com and reading a bunch of facts, figures, and scientific proofs I figure that, since we live in a democracy, it would be more fair if we all just voted on it.

so what do you think? how cold is it?

  1. it certainly feels like the coldest day ever…especially considering the heat was out in our apartment this morning.

    i have only three things to say about that: W, T and F.

  2. in Boston it is the coldest thing that’s happened to my face ever. it is like acid air is hitting my eyeballs and turning them into frozen balloons of crying death.

  3. some observations from new york:

    1.) i can’t walk for three minutes without my eyes starting to water from the awful cadaver morgue refridgerator that this island has decided to become

    2.) if it is possible for sunlight to be chilled to the point of liquidity, then i believe we’re talking about liquid sunlight, people. it’s *that* cold. liquid sunlight.

    3.) if the heat isn’t on by the time i come home…i just don’t know. my innards felt like iciclesthis morning and i’ve been sipping coffee for a few hours now, but i still feel chilled.

  5. its cold : super cold

    but the cold i experienced whilst living in the chizzle doesn’t even come close to this : i still have nightmares about going to sleep in 5 layers, with hat and gloves on…and meanwhile paying 100 dollars/month (per person) for heat..i actually cried on 3-4 occasions because i was so cold

    that being said : i hope the heat comes back on in your home and that everyones innards/eyeballs stop hurting :)

  6. I work in a restored tenement showing midwestern tourists what it was like to live back when immigrants were poor, hardworking, and not Mexican.

    Suffice it to say, they are getting an authentic experience.

    MY WHOLE PLACE OF WORK IS A FUCKING ICE CUBE.
    and then the phlem. so much phlem.
    FUCKING. FUCK! GAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!

  8. I love it when my state beats New York, but look on the bright side. There has never been a better reason to snuggle.
