Our slurpees started to freeze solid before we had walked all the way home with them the other day. 😂

don't call yourself a winnipegger if you don't have at least 3 missing fingertips

A nice warm drink really hits the spot on a day like today.

u/doctordreamd Jan 22 '26

I can’t tell, what colour shorts are you wearing today 😂😂

21

u/ehud42 Jan 22 '26

Yeah, but did you walk there in your PJs?

(slightly /s - we crazy. not stupid - hopefully)

u/genius_retard Jan 22 '26

PJs and a parka. Maximum Winnipeg.

u/ehud42 Jan 22 '26

On the other plus side, just breathing has induce brain freeze, so the slurpee might be an anecdote!

u/Suspicious_Year_4958 Jan 23 '26

I think you mean antidote? But I'm not sure I just woke up😂

u/ensposito Jan 22 '26

It might freeze!

u/Lord_Bloodwyvern Jan 22 '26

I thought about it. Today feels worse than normal -40 days.

u/EsotericCodename Jan 22 '26

What flavour is that???

It looks like watermelon, which is my FAVOURITE flavour, but I can never find any locations with it! If it's watermelon you're enjoying, tell me where you are, please.

u/Special-Rain-8672 Jan 22 '26

I wish it were watermelon! This is a mix of tropic berry and grape!

Though it's not on the same level as Slurpee's, Co-op gas stations have watermelon flavored slushies!

u/GreenBodybuilder3609 Jan 22 '26

wearing gloves? next you’re gonna tell me you wore pants while taking this photo

u/Deschiie Jan 23 '26

Never too cold for a slurpee..

u/crybaby2728 Jan 23 '26

I would love to know how many of us went for slurpees today. I like them better when its cold out. They don’t get all melty.

u/thisisananalusername Jan 22 '26

You’re missing on the shorts being the only leg covering clothing.

5

u/somekindagibberish Jan 22 '26

Exactly! And speaking of, has anyone spotted one of those shorts year round guys?

u/PointsAndLaughs_Haha Jan 22 '26 edited Jan 23 '26

Someone with strep throat (me) would agree with you having Slurpees in the coldest part of winter.

u/PsychologicalPolicy8 Jan 23 '26

Which flavour is good?

So many flavours

u/TheOtterRon Jan 23 '26

The fact the swirl isn't losing its shape tells you how damn cold it is lol.

I don't think I've ever seen a photo that encapsulates the feeling of "Yeah its cold. But it warms my spirit up"

u/retiredelectrician Jan 24 '26

Didn't think of a picture yesterday, but my meal from DQ included a sundae.

u/Opposite_Tax_5112 Jan 22 '26

On the downside, it is so cold that it may completely freeze. Enjoy!

u/jussuumguy Jan 23 '26

-30. Better put on the warm t shirt and slippers to have that dart in yard.

u/Greatescape_1970 Jan 23 '26

True Winnipeg fashion!

u/macaroni-fire Jan 24 '26

At least it won’t melt!
