Speaker 1: those things to break the ice off the windshield, but
Speaker 1: it wasn't doing anything but sliding across the frozen windshield ice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it sucks. This is why I.
Speaker 4: Like living here is because this doesn't happen too often. Right,
Speaker 4: there are people who are used to this crowd, and
Speaker 4: I don't I don't understand those people. Man, they have
Speaker 4: plenty options. You can go drive around out in rural
Speaker 4: areas and see where there's space to live, and many
Speaker 4: people choose to live in the worst places.
Speaker 1: Well, go ahead, Well I was gonna say, I think
Speaker 1: the last time it was frozen, I fell down on
Speaker 1: my DFW security sign. Remember I fell on my elbow
Speaker 1: and cracked my DFW security sign, So I'd have one
Speaker 1: that's like cracked in half.
Speaker 2: It's been that way for like a year. Yeah.
Speaker 4: That's the hard part too, is walking on ice. It's
Speaker 4: an easy fall. You can break your cockys yep.
Speaker 3: I've fractured mine before. Now that was not a winter
Speaker 3: weather event though.
Speaker 2: Now it's just jumping off a roof.
Speaker 3: Now you remember, though, kt as you say that people
Speaker 3: in Wisconsin, they see footage of us in August and goo,

Speaker 4: very warm in the winter time. You go into Snake's
Speaker 4: Plus stores like ninety degrees. It's kind of crazy, but
Speaker 4: they're trying to keep the snakes warm. Do you know
Speaker 4: are we going to be Did they buy us in
