Editing Talk:2866: Snow

"This comic is a interesting comic about how most people get childishly excited about snow, including Randall." Really, that's the best you can come up with? Can we all please either try a little harder than that or leave the explanation for others? [[User:Darkwolf0218|Darkwolf0218]] ([[User talk:Darkwolf0218|talk]]) 04:39, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
:But it's snow.  SNOW.

I don't think the graph actually plateaus, to me it still seems to be (very slightly) rising at the end.  I expect Cueball's "apparent age" is asymptotically approaching the original value. [[User:MAP|MAP]] ([[User talk:MAP|talk]]) 06:28, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Regarding the lower plateau, what isn't shown is the negative effects of having to go and shovel the drive or the disappointment when the snow melts. These will reset his age and may overshoot the other way :'( [[User:RIIW - Ponder it|RIIW - Ponder it]] ([[User talk:RIIW - Ponder it|talk]]) 08:40, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
:Furthermore, if the recovery state were lower after every snowfall, and he's seen hundreds, then he should be like a baby now. Wouldn't it be cool if snowstorms were the cause of Benjamin Buttons Disease?  [[User:Barmar|Barmar]] ([[User talk:Barmar|talk]]) 17:11, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Is it worth noting that it [https://boston25news.com/news/local/massachusetts-snow-totals-so-far-dec-6-2023/UYUUDAZQGNE3JAOBKPIQVWCOKI/ snowed in Boston on December 6]? [[User:Nedlum|Nedlum]] ([[User talk:Nedlum|talk]]) 21:46, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

:I thought of this as well.  I live a little North and West of Randall (the nearest corner of Vermont) and had a few earlier snow falls this year, but the December 6 snowfall may have been the first this year for Randall. [[User:MAP|MAP]] ([[User talk:MAP|talk]]) 22:02, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

If there were a cat in the show, I would expect IQ to plummet into negative values. {{unsigned|Cavaler|10:25, 14 December 2023}}
:I had planned to reply to your comment, but there was a cat in the snow outside, & I felt compelled to go tell it "You're a kitty!" & "It's cold and snowy outside, kitty!" & I fear my senses have just recently returned enough for me to return here.   
:Sorry I'm a bit late.

I really appreciate that somehow, despite panels 1 and 4 being practically identical, we can tell that panel 4 Cueball is staring out the window at the snow... [[Special:Contributions/162.158.174.128|162.158.174.128]] 03:26, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
:I know right? One of my Facebook Memories is a similarly drawn comic which says that guy did it in elementary school, shows two beans, one makes a bean pun, and we can just SEE the look of exasperation on the other bean despite having no face. :) [[User:NiceGuy1|NiceGuy1]] ([[User talk:NiceGuy1|talk]]) 05:32, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

:I have a car and stumble around on a prosthetic leg. My graph goes the other way, I turn 80, LOL! [[User:NiceGuy1|NiceGuy1]] ([[User talk:NiceGuy1|talk]]) 05:32, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

is the mention of refreshing package tracking software a reference to santa tracker? i dont think its old enough to be part of randall's childhood. [[Special:Contributions/198.41.236.189|198.41.236.189]] 07:35, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
:Well, I recall the end-of-news TV weather report on Christmas Eve giving a 'Father Christmas progress/ETA to arrive over the UK' (and perhaps how he'd dodge the rain!), and I'm older than Randall. But I think it's actually just a reference (as is linked) to the "Still in Memphis... Still in Memphis..." and Odyssey-based comics that have come before.
