Wait until they learn about parking your half-tonne on it, building a hut and sitting there fishing with some beers for hours.
In Canada whipping a shitty means an illegal U turn
That’s also what I’ve known it as in Texas
That’s cuz Texans are fucking stupid.
We should reframe climate change as an attack on winter recreational activities. Then Republicans might actually give a shit about it.
“Oh, I’m not worried about climate change. But I’m very concerned about the impending demise of snowmobiling.”
“How will the homeless freeze to death without cold winters?”
Make homeless freeze again.
You know the old trope about how people in the South can’t drive in snow? We do donuts on the roads unintentionally once the snow falls and refreezes to ice. No lake needed. I guess if you only have snow on the roads you have to seek out places where the car will slide around.
I was gonna ask “is there a term other than ‘doing doughnuts’ specifically for when it’s on ice?” because I live where we don’t drive on frozen lakes. 🤣
Only ever done this in an empty parking lot after a few inches of fresh snow
You are missing out then, frozen lakes are so much fun.
It has been a long time since most of those places have been cold enough, long enough, to have a lake become that solidly frozen. It has been 30+ years since I have seen this happen in the mid atlantic.
The water’s really deep there, too, so it’s riskier. Isn’t that were the Titanic sunk?
That’s the north atlantic ocean
I think by “mid Atlantic” they mean a city in the US on the Atlantic coastline, but not the northern tip of the country, or the southern end. The mid part. But they’re talking about lakes or rivers in those areas, not the ocean itself.
I think there may have been a joke in there.
Or maybe not.
I’ve lived in the mid Atlantic my entire life and have never driven on a frozen lake.
I do my donuts in parking lots that haven’t been salted or plowed yet.
back in the 90s there was a couple times lakes in western PA/NY froze over enough people were out driving on them.
