I want answers

It was 94 degrees today in my little Washington town. 94 degrees. 107 here in the computer room where I sit now. I don't even want to hear from all of you people from California and Florida and all of those hot places who are used to this...it is just plain inhuman to take those of us used to shorts and T-shirts in 40-degree rain and to throw us in 94/107 degrees. My keyboard got sweaty from my hands just typing this. No joke. My flipping shirt is suctioned onto my back. I tried to take it off just now but it wasn't worth the fight to break the suction.

I demand to know who is responsible for this heat...

For those of you wondering where I have been, this heat has made me have virtually no ability to focus or game (plus it's hard to shoot a K98 with sweat in your eyes) so I have been playing a lot of TF2, since everybody knows TF2 is for casuals...



A word of warning to all of you who jump over there every now and then though and (if you are an admin) try to help out their admins while there...they do things differently over there lol. I was kindly informed that "Please watch your language." is an inappropriate admin warning for language even though I have yet to see an admin go about it differently haha. All I know is that soooommeeeeebody isn't doing anymore admin help when TF2 admins are in-server.



That game amazes me at times. We had SEVEN snipers (out of 12 players) last night and no sooner did I "Really guys? Seven snipers??" but then we took and captured their intel. Lol. Silly game.



Nah, but I still love DoD:S the best. I shall be back soon...hopefully. And I very intentionally took a little break from the forums so--deal with it. Just gotta get past this flipping heat (I mean c'mon--my favorite map is named "cold" even...)

Well we REALLY aren't used to it!

Went down to SoCal a few Christmases ago and while we were at Disneyland in the 60s everybody was freezing and hiding under heaters and we were laughing maniacally in our shorts and T-shirts.

I know what ya mean eh?

Living in northern B.C, I'm used to either rain or snow. I looked outside today and there was this weird, firey ball in the sky. Unknowing of what it was, I called the police to ask them what it was. They didn't know either :/ I asked some people and they said it was called "the son". I sure hope it goes away soon.

It's HOT outside!

I grew up on the NorthCoast of Cal, constant rain and fog around 55-60. I wore shorts, now I live it a place where it gets to 115+ in the summer. You simply use the AC and adjust. You get used to it.

It's Washington! We don't have AC.

You young whippersnappers. You don't know hot. Why in my salad days I couldn't even use sweat glands. My mother, God bless her, rented them out to rich people for extra cooling.

"Stop complaining" she'd say. "We can't afford for you to sweat. Think we can afford water and salt! None of your lip! AND stop that PANTING. Ungrateful little whelps. Why in my day..."

two paragraphs of a witty anecdotal fable has me chuckling aloud in my empty office. As usual Quaffer, I salute thee. :laugh:

 

[RoffleWoffle]

Okay, yeah, I was working out in the city a couple of days ago, it peaked at around 110.

Inside, it was worse without AC.

Sniper is credit to team!

[I SURVIVED LONDON BLITZ]

Oh dear, Oh dear, YSD I do believe you are getting to OLD, that's an arguement OLD people come up with. I wish I had some of your heat right now, it's very cold here.
