I exaggerate. It's one inch.

Pff. Meanwhile my college regularly refused to cancel classes with three feet on the ground

It took full-on blizzards for them to even consider it

Oh, regional differences

I was on the road yesterday and saw a car that had a Texas license plate, and all I could think of was "oh, you poor bastard."

Welcome to Colorado!

My first thought would have actually been more along the lines of "great, you're going to be a shitty driver" >_>

But that's because I have yet to see anyone with a Texas plate not be a total asshole on the road

Texas drivers are assholes. It's a true stereotype.
