Do you hate today’s Denver snowstorm? Or love it?
Twitter Nation seems pretty evenly divided.
For everyone complaining about bad roads and related inconveniences, there’s somebody celebrating a snow day (most schools in the metro area are closed) or the beauty of the scene.
To capture the contradiction, we’ve juxtaposed two top-ten lists – one featuring those pissed at the weather, the other glorying in it – with the band OneRepublic weighing in on behalf of the latter group.
Count both of them down below.

Dear Whomever Is In Charge,
It's cool. You can turn off the sky feces in Denver now. There's enough snow to invite Charlie Sheen to party.
