    Rant Warning!!!!!

    Begin Rant

    This is Minnesota. This is the weather we should expect. You don’t need to b&@%t and moan to me every time you see me on how much the weather changed from yesterday. This is our weather. sunny and 50 degrees one day, and 15 the next. Green grass on Sunday, 3 inches of snow on Monday. All Summer you whimps kept saying, this warm weather can’t last forever. Winter will be here in no time. Gee, I wish it was like this all year.

    If I here “It sure is Cold today” or “Where did all this snow come from” one more time I may lose it all together!

    • Shut up, it snows here!
    • Shut up, it gets cold here!
    • Shut up, you live in Minnesota, nothing can A) eat you whole B) Poison you with a bite. OK? Be glad!
    • Shut up it could be North Dakota. (Like this with absolutely nothing to do.)

    Just Shut up. Leave me alone, I like it like this! For cotton pickin’ sakes, shut up about the weather being like it usually is. News Flash, it will be like this about 20 or more times this year!

    If you don’t like it, you have 2 choices:

    1. Pray for global climate change (ahem, BS) and do all you can to make it real.
    2. MOVE your whimpy, cold blooded arse to Arizona with all the other people who couldn’t hack it here.
    3. Or a 3rd option that just came to mind.

    4. Just shut up and leave me alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    End Rant

      Hmm, you seem to hate public transit and bitch about it all the time. Yet you live in Minnesota where public transit helps a lot of people and the vast majority of people here support it. I know you don’t care for the people the use public transit, and that’s why you boycott it, but I suggest if you want to live in a place where the people don’t care about those on the lowest rungs of society, Mississippi is quite nice this time of the year (plus they seem to share a lot of your political views there too).

      I know, I know, you don’t like having to sit next to the common man on the bus or the train (it’s OK, Jesus was an elitist too), but you need to deal with the fact that other people use mass transit and they like it. NEWS FLASH: Lightrail has been an overwhelming success.

      I don’t hate it, I just don’t think it deserves a majority of the money.

      BS again that a vast majority of people like it. If anything it is the LRT riders who are elitist because their train is actually screwing up the commutes of every one on Hwy 55 & Hiawatha. The rest of the world has to suffer financially and commute time wise in order for them to be happy. University Ave as we know it will be destroyed in order to put in that LRT line.

      And you are so full of @%&! about if I care for people or not. You don’t know me. You have no clue how much I do to help people. Proving you really do care does not necessarily mean that you have to be a socialist liberal DFLer like yourself. Is it better to give a man a fish or teach him to fish?

      Your absolute crassness and hate for people on the right is evident in this comment. You assume that all people on the right really do try to hurt people.

      I’m so sorry that I have to make multiple stops in different directions on my way home because of all of the people I am helping out that mass transit doesn’t work for me. I’m sorry that I need the flexibility to go where I want when I need to. Mass transit cannot work for me. In fact all those half empty busses that dangerously race up the shoulders of 35W in the evening are sooner or later going to kill some one.

      Every time I go by the LRT it is empty. Every bus I see in the suburbs is half empty or less. How the heck is that working? How is that a success?

      News Flash back at ya, what is the actual LRT ridership #s? Last time I checked, there was no way to count. It is all based on guesstimates. I have heard that bus ridership has decreased along the LRT corridor, so exactly how is that an overwhelming success?

      I know you love to take shots at people like me whenever you get the chance, but this post was about how everyone else here complains to me about the weather. Feel like addressing that?

      BTW: I sure hope you are involved in DFL policy making.
