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?

Truly a mystery why anyone chooses to live in that Frozen hellscape of a city
Because not all of us are pussies that can't handle a bit of weather.
And here come the frozen nutsack cucks who got nothing better to do while they shiver in the dark.
Frozen nutsack cucks made me chuckle. Usually people making these remarks live in the butt crack of tornado alley, near the gooch of hurricane country, or out west where every year the fires of hell burn down a million acres. Different strokes for different folks.
Rochester checking in - not Buffalo but sometimes we get similar amounts of snow. I love it. Snowmobiling is a thing everyone should do at least once in their lifetime, there is truly nothing else like it. I'm not talking the mountain riding through 10ft of powder like you see on IG or FB, even just normal trial riding on a couple feet of snow is incredible. You learn how to drive a car on it pretty quick, it's not that bad and the cities that typically get snow like this one are prepared for the amount of snow they get except in the most extreme circumstances. Ice fishing, skiing/snowboarding - snow just opens up a whole new set of fun wintertime activities
A better question is why hasn't capitalism driven a market for mountain building for ski resorts?
You want them to build a mountain?
I know of at least three ski hills that were decommissioned garbage dumps.
I absolutely adore Buffalo. I would live there anytime, if it wasn't part of the US. It's an incredible city.
