In a Canadian town, people’s car fobs have stopped working

26 below zero? Nice!

We hold doors for each other. We let the pedestrians cross against the light and think nothing of it because they're out there and we're safe in a car and, what the heck does it matter anyway? We're nicer this week and we got that way without terrorists having to ram jetliners into buildings like the last time we were all nice to each other because we were all in it together.
