The weather outside was absolutely frightful. It was snowing heavily, and the wind was howling to the point that visibility was reduced to almost zero right when a young blonde finished her shift at work.
She carefully made her way across the icy parking lot to her vehicle, shivering and wondering how on earth she was going to navigate the treacherous roads to make it home safely.
She sat in the driver’s seat, letting the engine and the heater warm up, nervously contemplating her dangerous situation. Just as she was about to panic, she suddenly remembered a vital piece of winter survival advice her father had given her years ago: “If you ever get caught driving in a severe blizzard, just wait for a massive snowplow to pass by and follow closely behind it. That way, the path will always be clear, and you won’t get stuck in a snowdrift.”
This brilliant memory made her feel instantly better. She waited patiently, and sure enough, within a few minutes, a gigantic yellow snowplow rumbled past. She shifted into drive, pulled out of her spot, and glued her car right to its back bumper.
The Infinite Loop
As she followed the flashing lights of the plow, she began to feel incredibly smug and proud of herself. They drove for miles through the swirling whiteout, and thanks to her dad’s genius tip, she wasn’t having a single problem with the hazardous blizzard conditions.
However, after a considerable amount of time had passed, she was somewhat surprised when the massive snowplow suddenly came to a complete stop.
The heavy door opened, and the burly driver stepped down into the snow. He walked back to her car and signaled for her to roll down her window.
The driver looked at her, completely puzzled, and asked, “Ma’am, are you doing alright out here? You’ve been glued to my tailpipe for over an hour now.”
The blonde smiled radiantly and proudly explained her father’s legendary advice about following a snowplow during a blizzard to stay safe.
The driver scratched his head, let out a loud chuckle, and replied:
“Well, that’s actually great advice, lady, and it’s totally fine with me if you want to keep following me around… but I just finished clearing the Walmart parking lot, and I’m about to head over to the K-mart next!”
