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.
