Which is harder, shoveling the snow off your sidewalk after a huge snowstorm (like we had here in NJ yesterday) or shoveling the mountain of gorebull BS off your internet connection?

BTW, I am loving the snow!

Global warming is real. It’s settled law thru executive action. Not so much science though.

[FroggyTheGremlim]

They just never give up, do they?

[clearcarbon]

I’m not convinced this caused the massive amount of surface ice on the Great Lakes in recent years.

[DNME]

Let’s see now ... would I rather have my great-grandchildren freeze under a mile-thick slab of ice or would I rather see them sweat because the temp rose a few degrees?

Um ... let me think about this ... uh ...

1975 — An Ice Age is coming!! We will all freeze to death! — We must give government total control of our economy!
2005 — Global Warming is coming!! We will all burn to death! — We must give government total control of our economy!
2015 — Climate Change is coming!! Our weather is different every day! — We must give government total control of our economy!

"The reason for this disparity, O'Gorman found, has to do with the very particular temperature conditions in which extreme snows occur, sort of like a frozen version of the Goldilocks tale:"

Maybe Goldilocks can broker a deal with the Little Mermaid to pump some vast, hidden heat from the deep ocean waters to help thaw out the northeast. After all, it is settled science. /s

[Ouch]

Mars and other planets have seen increase in temperatures in the last few years, I wonder how we did that.

It’s too hot! GLOBAL WARMING!

It’s too cold! GLOBAL WARMING!

The temperature is just TOO stable! GLOBAL WARMING!

QUICK, SAVE US FROM GLOBAL WARMING BY PAYING MORE MONEY TO THE GOVERNMENT!

Oh no the taxes AREN’T ENOUGH! IT’S ALL THESE NASTY POLLUTING PEOPLE EXHALING CO2!! ABORT THEM, EUTHANIZE THEM, JUST KILL THEM FOR THE LOVE OF GAIA!

[muir_redwoods]

How did they explain big storms before SUVs were invented? Why is a warmer earth a problem even if it is getting warmer? The climate has warmed and cooled countless times and we’re still here.

[ForMyChildren]

This article causes me to reminisce. I enjoyed reading Scientific American and National Geographic when young. In later years I read The Economist. None are in our household these days. These do-gooders and know-it-alls (i.e. statists) keep ruining life's pleasures and perverting truth, and I continue to resent the hell out of their ideology and their intrusiveness.

bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Global Warming=Massive Cold Attacks.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

“Epic blizzards in a warming world”

If this was true then we would be getting epic blizzards ALL THE Time, not just once every twenty years. This article is total bull hype with no science to back it up.

[IronJack]

Floods? Global warming.
Drought? Global warming.
Blizzards? Global warming.
Snowless winters? Global warming.
Extreme heat? Global warming.
Extremem cold? Global warming.
Normal temperatures? Global warming.
Hurricanes? Global warming.
Tornadoes? Global warming.
Poor fishing? Global warming.
El nino? Global warming.
La nina? Global warming.
Los viejos? Global warming.
Las Vegas? Global warming.
Hair loss? Global warming.
Embarrassing rectal itch? Global warming.

You get the pattern ...

[Talisker]

TL;DR - It’s to cold because it’s too hot because we have to abandon the Constitution and accept global government tyranny or we’re all dead. Pay up.

[Flycatcher]

We should all be extremely happy about global warming!

Just think how much worse these new giant blizzards would be without it!!

[fruser1]

“because of excess heat”

That’s why it’s always raining in the desert.

[DeWalt]

Self fulfilling prophesy. You predict future events caused by X. Then you create those events and say see, I told you it would happen. Hence you have the mass migration from the most squalid places on earth. Was it nonstop wars we created? Naw. It’s because of the global warming effects we told you would happen.

[Da Coyote]

Didja ever think you would live in a world where “Scientific American” became an oxymoron?

[TBP]

So then, if the planet cools, we’ll have FEWER blizzards?

[lurk]

We’re never content with the weather. Whine whine. Always wanting it to be something that it isn’t right now.
