How hot is it? It's so hot

my thighs immediately stick to the toilet seat when I take a dump.

Thanks for that great imagery, Kuan. How about "My shirt sticks to my back, etc?"

Yeah and over a hundred in Washington, DC with 90% humidity is a guarantee that every friggin' bit of air pollution will be held right down on top of you like a nice wet, toxic blanket.

I've lived all over, but everywhere I lived seemed to have more than it's fair share of humidity. I was in Arizona a couple of summers ago and the dry air was nice. When it hits 115 degrees, though it IS the heat.

It's always high 90s in Texas this time of year - everyone else may be dying of the heat, but to us Texans this is called "SUMMER". Another normal one, at that.

True dat (on the Texas corollary)...you either stay indoors or wear a hat!

Neighbors don't complain if you decide to begin mowing at 6AM! They too, understand.

What I DON'T get is why each year they find a jogger with full body armor collapsed and dead? Is there a reason why anyone would jog in 100+ temps in full sweat gear?

That's too much information. Did you apply the caulk to the toilet seat too?

You sit down on your bike seat and smell bacon frying all of a sudden.

Mid 70's today on the shore in Maine. We have had some 50's at night lately. They say it might go up the 90's tomorrow, a heat wave, but then right back down in the 70's Thursday.
