Snow and Yellow

It’s been snowing quite a bit here. Kids being kids, there is always the joke about not eating yellow snow. I used to be perplexed by it and didn’t understand the joke but once I saw a dog relieved itself near a building, it stuck to my mind ever since.

Meanwhile when I first started working, I asked my colleague whether I can park my car near the office. He said yeah, anywhere other than the double yellow lines. I didn’t understand it at that time but the double yellow lines means no parking.

Anyways, today when picking up the kids from school, I saw cars parking right near the entrance, along the double yellow lines. Hmm, I guess they don’t want to walk too far in the snow. Still, you’re not supposed to park on the yellow lines… wait a minute. The lines are covered by snow. 😂

Fair enough. Not sure the police traffic would agree but I am sure the parents are not too worried about them in this cold weather.

Thank you for reading.
