i hate:

- christmas ‘specials’ : as we all know nothing is ‘special’ until it’s on sale after christmas

- salvation army’s bells… i hear them wherever i go outside, from the parking garage to work, work to lunch, work to parking… always… it’s constant :madfawk:

- traffic, why do more people drive around like assholes in the winter?

- ‘holiday cheer’: i hate when people act all fake…

i’ll see if it has any tags… i’m thinking it was one of those fake products that they make displays for around department stores this time of year… it’s just a cover for the windshield that folds and zips into a square… rather odd design. i don’t remember what holds it to the car… i’ll try to find it tonight.

newspaper??

i’ve seen many people use that…

I think they even make Ice/frost melting washer fluid  
just spray it on and it melts the frost/ice right off.

I hate Snow & Salt…gets everything all messy…track it in the house the car etc…  
such a pain in the ass to clean up.

I hate it when you pour a concrete pad but don;t get to seal it because the weather doesn;t cooperate then buy time it snows you already have a hairline crack and get pissed off. Yeah that shit sucks :mad: :last year:

Glad I got it sealed this year.

I haven’t scraped snow off a window in years - I bought a house with a garage 😃

for my truck, I just let it run for 15 minutes before I drive and all the frost/snow/ice is gone and it’s nice and warm when I get in it.

I just remember to leave the heat and blower on high when I get out of my pickup. I have the remote starter on that one. But since I never drive it (especially in winter) thats not really any concern. I would like to put one in my car but it would be too much hassle to by pass the clutch switch and also remembering to keep it out of gear. Starting them early and letting them run is my favorite way. hell, i don’t even own a scraper.
