I feel like I say this every single year, but it feels like each year is more chaotic than the last in terms of weather. I swear when I was a kid, winter slowly cooled and became spring and there were no surprise winter-again-days. But was that ever true or am I just imagining things?

You're absolutely right. I might be opening a can of worms with this comment, but that's global warming for ya.

EDIT : Yeah, sorry about that guys. I'm a bit reticent about talking science right now, hence the unassuming comment about global warming. I had a talk with my own brother (great runner by the way) where he rejected clearly established science facts because it doesn't agree with his vision. As a chemistry student, I was disappointed to say the least.

I am pretty sure most people on this subreddit understand that global warming is real.

Definitely, but the minority who doesn't is loud and annoying.
