I grew up in Florida. I didn't see proper snow until I moved to Minnesota as an adult, it kinda blew my mind a bit, lol. I had no idea what was meant when people said the snow glistens - pictures can't really capture the effect.
Long ago I was in a Union and every year as a apprentice we had to go to Kansas City to a school. One year there was a guy from Hawaii. First week there came a light snow. A inch, maybe two. We go down for breakfast at the hotel they had us in. We look outside and this huge Samoan is out there barefoot in nothing but cargo shorts dancing around. That guy was out in it every second it was snowing for the rest of the stay. I guess most of us had got that out of our system as kids.
I try to foster that sense of wonder; it's powerful! I've been living in snowy lands for decades now, having grown up in the subtropics. I'm def. not a huge Samoan, so I need some insulation, and with right gear snow time is a blast.
I've started watching a YouTube channel of a guy trying to handbuild a homestead in Alaska. I forget where he said he came from, but like you, it was somewhere without snow.
On a recent video, he recorded himself seeing what I think he said was the third snowfall he'd ever seen and the first with accumulation. It was nice to watch his clearly genuine joy and surprise.
Joy? I've gone to the snow as a kid and have chosen not to go as an adult. I consider myself a bit of a masochist but not that much
I've always loved the snow. I will admit that since it hurt me, I've preferred to enjoy it through a window or from a sheltered place rather than to be in it.
I moved several hundred miles across multiple states in part to be where there's sometimes snow. Shortly after I got here, I was chatting to a local and mentioned that fact; he responded something like "wow. Most people don't move to here for the weather."
edit: I have a bad habit of writing run-on sentences. Tried to fix one here.
I am from FL and just moved to MN last year and it was similar for me. Snow doesn't feel or behave like I thought it would based on TV/movies.
Don't you get to see snow glistening if you watch a movie like The Thing?
Depends on the lighting and if they used real snow. The Thing is pretty darkly lit (most of it takes place at night).
Just saw the trailer for her new netflix show. Sad that its netflix but glad that shes giving us more quality shitpost material.

Oh yeah absolutely, i didnt mean it that way. I meant that its sad that its produced with netflix because its a shit company. But its actually in cooperation with the BBC and it will air there first. So yeah it will be "available" for free in HD on day one.
Wow I didn't know Netflix made those kinds of movies
As long as it can be canceled before it’s properly finished, it can be a Netflix production.
It isn't?
