In case you didn’t hear, it snowed this weekend.

Idiot drivers were a big issue. At one point we saw a giant Range Rover with Florida plates stuck on an unplowed street, spinning its wheels at full speed trying to get unstuck, while folks in small cars wisely dug all around their tires and were able to tool around town.

And then there were the plows. Sort of counterproductive if you don’t actually plow, however.

Overheard of the Week

Thursday on the 700 block of Gresham Place, near Howard University:

A plow driver is spreading salt on the street, with his plow blade raised off the ground. He then raised the blade higher after he started to get stuck.

Angry plow driver out the window: “You say you never see a plow on your street? Huh, well what do you think this is?”

Maybe because everybody was inside for a lot of the time, there really weren’t that many snow-related overheards this week. People did seem to keep themselves amused with numerous “official” snowball fights, sledding, and other shenanigans, so if you did hear something funny, send it in to us: overheardindc(at)gmail(dot)com.
