Weather
people, or pardon me, meteorologists,
need to learn how to shut their mouths. I don’t turn on the news each
morning to see them prancing around trying to act cute, while they tell us how
great or how bad the weather is going to be that day. No, all I want to
know is approximately what the temperature is going to be like and whether or
not I should bring an umbrella with me. That’s it. Maybe some fog
and some cold isn’t a bad thing for everyone. Maybe, just maybe, the fact
that it’s going to be sunny and hot tomorrow, isn’t something that makes me
particularly happy. Have they ever stopped and thought about that?
Or is this something that is required of them, something that is listed in
their job description: “If the weather is hot and sunny, this makes you
happy. Yay, everyone will have a great day today. If the weather is
cold, oh no, it’s not going to be a good day. Lets give the audience hope
that tomorrow will be sunny, and therefore better.”
I would actually overlook all of their annoying and pointless
behavior if they just gave us a nonbiased, black and white reading of the
weather. But they just can’t do it. It’s almost like an
addiction; they just have to slip their opinions into the forecast. It
gets on my nerves, and frankly, it makes me want to rip my hair out.
Just the fact that it never fails, no matter where you are, what channel you’re
watching, the weather person will always incorporate a generalized opinion
about the weather. Just watch and you’ll see. At least they’re consistent. They consistently annoy me every
morning. I don’t know why this gets me
so worked up. It really may just be the fact that I’m not a morning
person and everything anyone does in the morning pisses me off.
