50 Things More Interesting Than Snow.

Oh look, it's snowing again. It happens a lot during WINTER yet still people seem to find it an increasingly fascinating subject to talk/ tweet/ Instagram/ update their Facebook status about. Those people are nothing more than misguided fools. We should not judge them or hold them in contempt because of their misunderstanding of just how an incredible world we live in.

To make things easier for them and to hopefully stop them getting bullied by people like me I've compiled this remarkably useful list of things that are a lot more interesting to talk about than the white stuff falling from the sky.

Hashtag cats. Hashtag snow.

2. The news.
3. The Pope changing his relationship status with God to 'It's complicated.'
4. How giraffes don't fall over more often.
5. Why people still smoke.
6. Why people do drugs.
7. Why people don't actually dance better when drunk but think they do.
8. The lack of scientific proof behind the Lynx Effect.
