6. Its not cold until its -20 to 30 with windchill.
Then its cold. If its 20 or above, just put on a light jacket.

3. It took two hands to open my truck door this morning
And compound low to get past the mound the plow guy left between me and the roadway.

5. I know, it's fucking cold isn't it?
Silly people from climates on the edge of human habitablity may not think so, but I think the chill addles them or something.

I think I'll go flip the heater on.

8. Cold?!? You don't know what cold is!!
Try Fairbanks Alaska, where winter bottoms out at 60 below! Tires freeze to the ground! Your breath comes out in chunks! Throw boiling water in the air and it freezes instantly! People have to start fires to thaw enough oxygen to breathe!

11. Oh, 'oxygen,' eh?
Well, when I was a little girl, we had to breathe concrete.

And we were GLAD TO HAVE IT!

13. Oh yeah! You had it EASY!
Getting to breathe concrete was a luxury, let me tell you! When I was a kid we only had razor blades to drink!
