It's freezing when you wake up, and the toilet seat is always cold. You have to scrape off your car every morning or trek to work wearing atrocious boots that make you look like you're in kindergarten again. Then when you get to work, everyone is sick. People are sneeze-spraying all over their keyboards, and the lunch room is a goddamn germ pit full of disgusting people hacking mucus into their hummus. Your lips are constantly chapped, not to mention when you get into those cold sheets, there is most definitely shrinkage.
And all this for what? To hold an over-sized mug of hot chocolate with both hands and wear a chunky knit sweater? To strap some planks of wood to your feet and slide down a death-hill of ice? To sit inside and watch people slip and break things? That last one is actually pretty fun.
If you agree that winter is the absolute worst, these 16 people doing winter right might convince you otherwise. If not, they'll at least give you a few good ideas to make the season slightly more tolerable!
1. When this person got snowed in...
But made room in their fridge.
2. This person who took their cat out for some fun in the snow
After, your cat will probably never acknowledge you again. But did they ever, anyway?
3. Use the weather as a tool to pick up
People will do desperate things during a snow storm. Especially if there is Pinot involved.
4. When this person took a winter themed Facebook picture
Tonight, winter is coming. And so could you, if you play your cards right.
5. Experiment with winter fashions
Chunky knits are so hot right now
6. When the force was strong with this one
A good idea, as many of the deaths during winter occur as a result of shoveled parking spot conflicts.
7. When this guy decided he was done with shoveling
I wish he was my neighbor.
8. When these Canadians partied on
Is the reason you can't feel your face inebriation or frostbite?
9. These parents who really put in the effort to scare their kids
Every time your kid shits themselves, it builds character.
10. When this guy got in touch with his basic bitch
Winter transforms us all into blanket scarf, Ugg-wearing, hot beverage fanatics. Don't forget to take an Instagram selfie with your giant mug and fuzzy socks. #cozyAF.
11. When this person made rabbits hump trees all around town
Because what else is there to do during the winter?
12. When this Canadian reaped the benefits of the blizzard
Oh yaa, eh. Just use'n the over-hang to get hungover, bud.
13. Funny winter penis jokes
Hand rolled just for you.
14. When this guy hitched a ride to work
Instead of shoveling out your car, why not just ride your shovel to work?
15. When this guy used the expected blizzard as an excuse to buy all the chips
Stocking up on your favorite food and not leaving the house for a month is a great way to win at winter.
16. The person who had fun in the company parking lot
You could spend 15 minutes doing this after work on a Friday, or you could go home, microwave a mugful of your favorite wine, and hibernate until Monday. Both are winter wins in my books.
