😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣this is hilarious.... I'm from anchorage where they got 104 inches of snow this winter. An people in Denver stocking up like it's the apocalypse. I just got back from Colorado Springs to Westminster and going to the store did not cross my mind. 😂😂 people are crazy here. Just another average day. I just wish people here knew how to actually drive in the snow.

Plenty of cigs, weed n beers, plus kids need their wine. We are ready.

@FatherGapon-gw6yo

@villagecpa
