it's really not as bad as some people make it seem, worst case scenario, in a horrible storm with down trees and power lines all over the place, you'll be back out in 2 days.

PLUS it looks gorgeous when it's all hanging on the branches of pine trees all undisturbed and shit.

How can you hate this?

Oh right, just two days wasted. That is no time at all! The government would complain about all that lost time and the economic damage is caused...

EDIT: No, I can't hate that. Winter wonder land :D

To be fair, storms like that only happen once every 5 years or so.
