UK - Snow panic

[Don Carlos]

So we are due a sprinkling of the white stuff which means the British media will go bat shit crazy, the public will worry about starving to death and bulk buy the world, all cities will come to stand still and roads will be choc-o-bloc with cars as people are unable to contemplate driving normally.

So, all that being said, post your snow pictures up and then a link to the sensationalist headlines from your local paper

[scared?]

Unless u surf there ain't a god damn thing to do at a beach...

Beach combing is like camping...vacation/recreation for poor ppl... :olo. ...

[LawL]

lol you can tell you're too poor to ever be near a coastline by how clueless you are.

[Don Carlos]

Have fun, I'll be at the beach.

[Doombrain]

i'd rather be shredding in the snow than sweating on some beach pulling sand out of my bellend.

[scared?]

also, TV reporters will be standing in the snow in various locations around the country telling people that it's snowing, and keeping us up to date on all the minor collisions and vehicular breakdowns that occur. this will be broken up with phone and/or CCTV footage of people falling over, and accompanied by portentous news-y drumming music so we're reminded of what serious business this is

[losCHUNK]

And how we get taken down to our knees because shit like airports wont invest in something that may or may not happen once or twice a year to keep costs down

[Don Carlos]

I've decided I really do dislike the media in this country. I might start an anonymous blog about it.

[seremtan]

media people are by and large a pack of flailing baboons; but on the other hand, without the occasional exception to this rule, the government and corporate propaganda would be wall-to-wall

can't have the rose without the thorns, as Karl Marx once said

But does it always have to be such sensationalist bullshit? Why try and find a major story in everything? And when there is a big story why do we need big yellow flashing banners and constant updates about every insignificant going on where the news is?

I might just be getting cynical in my old age but it feels like I'm being treated like a moron and fed bullshit while the stories only serve to highlight the stupidity of a large proportion of the population.

[losCHUNK]

They need something to talk about, watch a bit of Sky Sports News and you really do see how big they blow up every story just so they have something to talk about. It's pathetic how much of a boner is to be had on transfer deadline day especially when they cut to that sap with the 3 mobile phones hoping that 1 of them will ring informing him of a big name transfer :/

[Don Carlos]

Yeah innit - bet its his Mum asking him what he wants for tea

[GONNAFISTYA]

[YourGrandpa]

I lol'd at that.

THE SNOWPOCOLYPSE IS UPON US BRITAIN!! BUY ALL THE MILK IN THE WORLD!!!!

[seremtan]

lol, no. might be a pitiful sprinkle tomorrow though. was listening to various female colleagues going into full drama queen mode about it, making contingency plans for what to do when they're cut off from civilisation with only a paisley snood and the latest Heat magazine standing between them and despair

why are there so many morons in this country?

[MKJ]

BUY ALL THE MILK IN THE WORLD!!!!

this seems to be universal. normally they would freak out about milk being 1 day over the expiration date BUT when it snows a lot/rains a lot/some union strike/bank holidays suddenly milk never goes bad.

Some dude panic buying cider in asda earlier - hero.
