[Rant] It's OCTOBABBLE! Yet more OT silliness and hijinx!

Click for full size
Achtung, y'all! OCTOBABBLE is the eighth installment of The Genuine, Official OT Thread. This is all about having fun, being silly, making friends and razzing them. (Check out »[Rant] SEVEN UP! Refreshing, Bubbly, Natural OT Goofiness! in case you have no idea what this is all about).

The only rules are: any attempt at being really serious will be quickly derailed; no flaming or fighting; no political or religious debates; and absolutely no posting or linking NWS material.

Let the mayhem begin!

Everyone in the DC metro area: PANIC NOW! Abandon your cars as soon as you have bought all the milk, bread, and toilet paper you can carry so you can get the best spots at ramps and interchanges. Don't forget, travel lanes are better than shoulders so you don't get plowed-in.

Or more is possible. I'm surprised they haven't already called school and liberal leave for the government for Monday and Tuesday.

These folks whine more about a little snow than you do about normal people food!

Practically had to use a crowbar to get into Costco this afternoon, with all the people stocking up for this thing.

Me, I just doubled down on beer, TP, and dog food (can't let the mutt starve, after all).

My boys are getting a little low on food too and I didn't go yesterday. (I just got lazy). Nothing around here is open on Sundays, so it will have to wait til during the week.

Here comes the civilization-ending snow...just hitting the Beltway.

If you haven't already abandoned your car, it's too late for prime highway locations. However, there are many good places on local streets, especially near major intersections.

Word has it that most markets only have bread that children and most 20-somethings won't eat because it's the real deal: crusty and/or nutritious. Safeway and Giant do have several loaves of Wonder left, but won't say at which stores: people will just have to have a treasure hunt to find them.

If you are low on booze, you're SOL unless you can make it down to Charles County, where liquor sales are allowed on Sunday. However, since the storm is moving up from the south, you probably won't make it back...and there are booze gnomes in those parts.

Pookie, I'm just making fun of it. I have never understood what is wrong with people here...it isn't like most of them didn't grow up with snow! If I could resist becoming wimpified the 18 years I've been here now, these folks have no excuse.

It wasn't an hour after the "significant snowfall" forecast was issued yesterday that I started getting "In case I can't make in to work on Monday" emails from clients. The first was a woman who lives a block from the subway on one of the major streets in town, and their office is a block from the same subway line (two stops from hers), along another of the key streets. Oh, and she's from Rochester.

WTF???

 Nice 'puss. Saw something on TV the other night about one of the major aquariums that had put a giant octopus in their largest tank and then sharks started disappearing. They had been concerned that the sharks would attack the octopus but, instead, the octopus was catching and eating 3-4 foot long sharks. Sorry, I don't have a link to the video that shows this.

My client wouldn't appreciate me starting happy hour so early in the day...especially since I won't bring enough to share with all of them.

I wish carrying flasks would come back into vogue.

 Lunchtime. On a Friday during Lent. Groan.
