idiot asshole bitch who should fuck off
Ok, so it's cold here. Colder than usual. Most of the time I don't care too much about the weather. I just stick my head outside and see what's happening. But it's loving cold, people, and I don't want to stick my head outside in weather like this; my ears might fall off. So I figure, well, why not go to a website with "weather" in it to find out what the weather is like. Weather.com. Seems like no-nonsense, right?

It is all nonsense.

First thing I see:



Ahh! Who? Where? People in Siberia.



What the hell?



Adurrrrrrrrrr durrrrrr



Yeah, I'm not sure how spotting a loving octopus will help me decide whether to wear six pairs of pants today so I don't freeze my rear end off.

I've been fighting against a rising tide of cynicism and hatred of humanity since I was a teenager and I've done pretty well for myself. Until today. Thanks, Weather.com, you finally did it. You snapped my faith in humanity like a feeble icicle hanging from the side of a poo poo shed.

They should change the name. Give Weather.Com to the people who just tell you the temp. They can move to OctopusNews or SnowOcean.net. Just my opinion, no flames please

I think those are fingers. Clubby fingers are a sign of chronic oxygen deprivation. There, I just saved your life.

According to the National Institute of Health, signs of the top two causes of death in the US, lung cancer and heart disease, can show up in red, bulging fingertips, and downward-curved nails. Your nails can also get hosed up in other ways, because of other diseases. Please look at your fingernails at least once a month.

Those Weather.com squatters have got to go, and give weather.com to the true weather hounds. I'm pretty sure Oceanonacid.com hasn't been taken yet

you aren't kidding. I was on that page earlier in the week and I was think hooolllyyy shhiiiittt I just want the loving weather, not 100 ridiculous advertisements all over the page. Even finding the hourly forecast or extended forecast was a freaking chore. And when you do, it takes up 15% of the page and the rest is all ads.

I ususally just type weather into the google and it gives me the current temp and five day forecast, but ONE TIME i type weather.com in and now EVERY TIME it autocompletes to weather.com so I have to backspace out the .com part to just get to the google weather thing.
