The difference between cold and REAL cold

 

When you live in the North, you understand the difference between cold and really cold.

Cold is when you wear gloves. Really cold is when you wear mittens so your fingers can keep each other warm.

Cold is when you wear a hat and scarf. Really cold is when your teeth freeze no matter what you wear.

Cold is when it takes ten minutes for your car heater to warm up. Really cold is when your tires freeze flat on one side and go ka-chunk, ka-chunk as you limp along at 10 mph until they return to round.
