The weather people in North Carolina have a tough life. I bet they really envy the weather people in Seattle. They're always just like, "Mostly cloudy with a chance of rain. Pretty much forever." But here, the weather people have to guess about whether it's going to snow an inch or three inches, or switch to rain, or freezing rain, or pretty much just do nothing.
Yesterday, the weather people went with 1-3 inches of snow. Instead, we got maybe a quarter of an inch and then a 34-degree rain for the rest of the day. I submit that there is no more disgusting weather phenomenon than 34-degree rain, except maybe a plague of locusts, and I'm not even sure locust clouds count as weather phenomenons.
In conclusion, the weather yesterday sucked.
Romeo stayed home because of the major suckiness of the weather. I had to go to work despite the suck. A real conversation with a friend:
Me: Romeo stayed home today.
Friend: What a bum.
Me: Yeah. It's ok though because the dog puked on the carpet about an hour ago.
Friend: Ah, sweet retribution.
But I'm not bitter. Certainly not about something so minor as 34-degree rain. 34-degree rain is so 5. (Are we allowed to use "so 5" sarcastically?)

There doesn't really seem to be a universe in which we WON'T use sarcasm, so i'm guessing that it was inevitable that so 5 would eventually be used in a snarktastic way :)
Negative houston. Though shalt not take the holy designation in vain.
