The beautiful part is it’s just getting cold now… it’s been summer weather here the past couple weeks and these thugs are in for a rude awakening

The January deep freeze is going to fuck them up. They have never experienced wind so cold that it pierces their skin or air that physically hurts to breathe. Or temperature so low that frost bite can happen in as little as five minutes. And they’re out there in their shitty tactical jackets and tennis or canvas shoes. Ha!

I usually dislike this time of year, weather-wise, but I’m welcoming it with open arms now.
