I wasn't in the UK at the time so I missed this one:

There are some decent videos on YouTube of guys in England who recorded tornadoes from their bedrooms.

Sometimes floods happen but it is true we don't get any extreme weather. That tornado and two small earthquakes are the worst we've had here.
I bet American tornadoes laugh at the ones we get like a black rapper laughs at a white guy trying to do it.

Hey, if trees want to be whipped, who are we to judge?

Yeah. Damn shoeless bastards, huh?

Seriously guys: give Roxy a break. She's in the ****ing heart of the thing and still communicating with us. I doubt many of us would be that together were it us. It's a tough time for her so maybe a little understanding, huh?

Might that be a joke? Storm, blown out? (shrug)

That would be a terrible dad joke though. Only one person here has that kind of lousy comedic timing.

Stealing shoes makes perfect sense when you need to slog through waist-deep water. Those guys didn't look like they needed a dozen pairs for their family though.
