No idea, but I'm confident I can guess correctly

Did my Dunning-Krugerrands come in from Temu? Dang it, FedUPS! They always deliver to the wrong address!

The levels of irony involved in watching a hearing in which two self-identified Amish people are being sanctioned for using ChatGPT hallucinated case law in their filed objections is currently melting my brain.

You know, making it so I am no longer required to see your posts is not the punishment you think it is.

Did you cut the water and bleed the pipes?

I actually went back home and did this because I started feeling nervous.

So here we are, the five of us (me, wife, child, dog and cat) staying with friends until Monday morning, realizing the million little things we left back at home and feeling grateful for friends but also just kinda generally miserable.

The key to not being stressed about this is to remind yourself that it's temporary (hell, it's fleeting) and then rub your hands together, chuckle, and smile...
Because you've been challenged.
This is an adventure for you and your family.

I’ve personally lived through 4 notably bad winters.

The least nasty one was when my folks had to do some renovations/repairs on the house, and we were down 2 of our 3 bathrooms. And THAT one had a hole in the ceiling and roof above the tub. So you’d be taking a shower in a column of 40degF air as raccoons looked down on you from above.

(Understandably, Mom left town to visit relatives.)

The 2011 & 2021 freezes in Texas would be 2nd and 3rd on that list. The 2021 one caused long and then rolling power outages that resulted in our indoor temps dropping into the 40s.

(Hon. mention to a previous year’s ice storm that dropped 7” of solid ice on our back porch and encased our gate’s drive chain in 1” thick ice.)

But in the early 80s, an arctic blast hit us in KS, damn near killed me. Temps hit -53degF; the system was even giving the Canadians fits as temps THERE dipped under -80degF. I got hypothermia walking home from the bus stop (they sent us home early because of the blizzard). My hands were so cold that I couldn’t grab my keys or ring the doorbell- I kicked the door to let my folks know I was there. To this day, my hands are still MUCH more sensitive to cold than any other part of my body.

(And having also experienced near-fatal HYPERthermia, I’ll still take cold over hot every time.)

My mindset is not gonna keep my 3-year old from freezing. I don't know where you live, but multiple weeks of consecutive single digit to negative cold during which we have had 11 inches, 4 inches and then 2 more inches of snow at a go without heat or hot water is not something I could ever smile about, except maybe when it was finally over.
