I couldn't agree more with you.
I work in a windowless office and sit next to a daft bint with a weather fixation. Anytime someone comes back from being outside or near a window, she asks what it's like. Everytime she comes back from the same situation, we get a weather report.
And if I tell her I couldn't care less (and I have), she goes in a major huff.
She's probably the pttgoyn the most!
