Snow.
What happens in Finland when the whole country's suddenly hit by around 20cm of snow?
Well...
- People start swearing over the fact that their summer shoes don't offer enough grip.
- Busses are on time, and people start thinking about changing their tires to accomodate for the weather. Most still won't change it.
- Bikers start to wear helmets.
- People start buttoning their summer coats, but "I'll be damned if I'll wear my winter coat!"
- Driving is fun again!
- Joggers put on their gloves - not because it's cold, but in case they'll slip.
- Kids start making snowmen - students start making snowdicks.
- Nobody's still not wearing hats; it's not -30C degrees yet.
And none of that's funny, because it's true.

Still, I guess it's better than still riding your bike, but falling flat on your face a few times, like I did. (I still blame the rabbit that skidded past me and looked so funny that I didn't pay as much attention to the road as I should've been.)
