Saw this on Mastodon and had a laugh. Not sure if it's real, but it's funny.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

As someone from Winnipeg, why would I be afraid of warmer weather?

According to the link Helsinki is worse in many other areas in November though:
Throughout the year Winnipeg may be worse in some aspects than this, but Helsinki is definitely worse in November on many scales.
You have to compare the rainfall graph with the snowfall graph. It all turns to snow in Winnipeg. But Winnipeg does have beautiful skies.
Ah yes that is true, that was misleading. To me those beautiful skies sound like they make Winnipeg a nice place to live, even with the cold. Helsinki sounds like it just has nothing going for it.
