Not to bag
Not to bag on the SoCalians, but these guys seriously don't know how to handle rain. I watched the news the first day it started raining a couple of weeks ago and when the weathercast came on, the guy was like, "It's been a wet one, hasn't it. Unfortunately I can't say tomorrow will be any better. You should expect another day of heavy rain. Watch for flooding on the roads and be sure to drive carefully on the freeways, they can get pretty slick in this heavy rain."
Come on. Are you serious? Have you never seen a raindrop? People all around me are like, "Geez, I hate this weather. When is it going to be sunny and warm again?" I know this is Southern California, but there are seasons.
I don't know, I just think it's funny that people start freaking out when the temperature drops below 78 degrees, or when water falls from the sky.
Not that I don't feel bad for those whose homes are getting washed away in the mud slides. But this is the desert and when it rains, it rains. Maybe if there weren't so much cement, the water would have somewhere to go...
I'm just saying.
