One moment the US are laughing at the UK and how we can't cope with a bit of snow, now they've got it it's suddenly Snowmageddon!

Anyone been affected by it?

From what I seen on Sky News it was some of the worst snow storms i've seen, and apparently there's more coming your way on Tuesday.

In Tennesse it's not that serious....of course people think if we get only 3 inches of snow it a blizzard! It's kind of pathetic.

We only start getting concerned here when it starts getting to two feet, anything else is pretty standard by the books kind of thing.

Your all a bunch of fucking wimps. Try spending winter in Canada, every fucking year. -20C is a nice winter day for us, and I only live 2 hours driving from the American border.

What!? -20C is like a slight chill, you put a jacket on, whack a beanie on the top and suck it up and go outside. I wasn't aware fairies were real, and that they are native to Canada.

From what I remember the refs back was turned thanks to a distraction from North Korea, America hit with a low blow, and won the match. It was a dirty tactic, but a win is a win.

America is such a politician. Canada was way over and he still wouldn't do the job.

Canada might be over, but they're still mid card. They need to get some more victories against opponents on their own level to really deserve a victory over the likes of America. At the end of the day though, the hard fought victory will win over more fans, and we might see a new long term superpower in the form of Canada.

The world's been talking about new superpowers for years, they never work out. Remember Russia? Yeah exactly. They need that big win, personally I'd like to see guys like Greenland step it up a bit. A win over one of the monsters like China would be awesome.

This just in, meteorologists have renamed Snowmageddon. It is now known as BIS: Blizzards, Snow Storms and Ice. Apparently a public poll was held for the name changed, but all the other options given were so incomprehensibly retarded, it was obvious which one's the meteorologists really wanted.
