Re: You know you've been in the US too long when...
To be fair, they don't have anything to deal with snow, no plows, no sand and no salt. Also, God forbid if they DID get anything measurable here I would stay home, refusing to deal with people who have no idea how to drive in the stuff. It's bad enough dealing with the locals when we have our monsoons and the speed limit is fly wide open. 
I do agree that it's the other drivers that make it so treacherous, though.

True, but Cindy, you're practically in Florida where you are. I'm in the foothills in NE GA, so it actually gets COLD here. Yesterday was 26 degrees and it's going down even lower over the weekend (24 in Atlanta, which means even lower here!).

a bunch of Brits start an argument over what the US Civil War is called and who fired the first shot.

When you don't get annoyed when you tell people you are for Northern Ireland and they reply "oh your Irish!"
