I see large numbers of people wearing winter coats, scarves, and hats at this time of year. What a bunch of sheep! I did my own research online and found out that only 8,800 people died of hypothermia in the UK last year. That's only 0.012% of the population! They live in fear of something 99.988% of people won't die from!

What's even worse - some of the people who died of hypothermia were wearing a coat!! WAKE UP, SHEEPLE! Stop listening to the "experts".
Coats don't work!

With regard to water fluoridation - Very much against it. The city I live stopped doing that (Calgary).
There's a faction trying to get it back in but it's being delayed.

I wear a coat to stay warm, not to avoid death.

Did you know that everyone who ever mixed up correlation and causation ended up dead?

I do hope you don't think this is actually a good analogy lol, but I suppose it's a nice attempt at humor. This thread could use some more of that.

We must start increasing our CO2 emissions to accomplish this.

It's plenty warm down here in Texas. Honestly, it'd be kind of nice to see a bit of snow every once in a while.

Trump is heavily in favour of massive increases in pollution, so America is likely to achieve this.

not me! I've mixed them up a bunch before, and I'm still alive and kicking! Also to my knowledge, everyone who ever lived ended up dead so like... this isn't really news boyo!

Whoa... you mean like more than an eight of an inch of slush that's just enough to make drivers forget how brakes work but not good for getting a snow day or doing anything interesting with it?

Could it be... is it really... does the fabled white Christmas truly exist?
