Hot Hot Hot
- No related posts
What did the world do before air conditioning? Did people smear ice cream all over themselves and let it melt off? Did they bathe in ice cubes? It's not so much the heat as it is the gosh darn humidity. I'm breaking a sweat just thinking about it. Even though I've been relaxing on the couch for the past half hour, I'm still stuck underneath a laptop – which is running cooler than this city is tonight. Could somebody turn on the ceiling fan for me? I'd do it, but I'm afraid my skin will stick to the sofa if I try to move.

I just hope you're not one of those people that will still drink hot coffee in weather like that :P

Back in the day when I was growing up in the city, we didn't have air conditioning. I grew up in a row home, with windows wide open and about 10 fans in windows and in the house blowing the air around.
I survived just fine.
I don't think I could sleep very well without it now, but I think we have all become to pampered and used to air conditioning where it is just as needed as heat is now.

Well, my wife is from Louisiana, now we live in Davenport, Iowa, and she thinks the weather here is great compared to down there. So, don't ever have Gnomedex in New Orleans. ;-)

You darn people living on the coast grr ;) Every summer here about 4 hours away from SF it gets in the 100's. A/C is a must lol. Nothing like back east heat though thank goodness, I'd die back there.

just don't start melting. then the little gnome icon will start to look like a Dali painting. and the “Hello Dali” jokes would get old very quick.
tomorrow, go out and get yourself a carton of Lime-ade. it's quite refreshing, IMHO.

It was hot plus humid today here in Tucson, I sweated from places I don't want to think about. I know this has probably be hashed and re-hashed here but I guess your not part of Tech Tv anymore. Call for Help rocked while you were on there. It's too bad, what happened?

When the humidity is up, I become a hermit and spend time in the cool climate of my basement. Cheers!

And people call me crazy for living in North Dakota. Sure, winters suck, but summers are so nice. 70s and 80s most of the summer.

The intense heat of a laptop can be very bad news when it comes to testicular symmetry.
I used to have a Dell laptop which would get really hot whenever I used it – the problem was that as the battery was on the left, I found that it was only my left goolie which started to swell.
My theory was that because the laptop was going to get hot anyway, I'd rather that both of my knutz were irradiated to the same size as opposed to me walking about with a watermelon on one side and a grape on the other!
I was therefore left with no choice but to buy another battery for the right side of the computer…
… they are so large now that if I painted them black and stood on my head, people would get me mixed up with Mickey Mouse!!! :o)

Before ac?
It was called SWEAT. With electricity came fans.
No ac! No PC's. They'd be over the temp top.
