Heh, seconded. Upon having relocated to the East Coast, snow quickly lost its charm when it became treacherously slippery and/or dirty gray slushy substance I had to navigate through to make my way to work everyday. Now I mostly telecommute, so I’m free to enjoy it again.
Our building’s super, OTOH, hates both fall & winter with the white-hot passion of 1000 suns—the former because of all the leaves she has to rake, and the latter because of the snow she has to shovel off sidewalks & other walkways.
