If I’m in florida in the summer it’s disgusting, non stop sweating. I only go in the winter time nowadays.
Yeah, I'll drive around with the windows down when it's 90+ because you will actually sweat some to cool you down... and there's also a far bigger difference between being in the shade and in the sun.
I think it starts getting excessive around 107-110, but still don't mind it nearly as much when the humidity is like 10%. And in a place like the Vegas strip, I'm sure the surface temp is even hotter with all the concrete and what not. [Reply]

My brother lives in Greensboro and it seems like a cool place to live, fairly close to the mountains and not terribly far from the beach. I'd assume slightly better in terms of humidity, but I know snows in that part of NC, too (they just had an ice storm that knocked out power for a day). [Reply]

If you’ve got the money Hawaii is the answer. My buddy was stationed at Pearl and I got to stay with him a bit and the weather is always awesome. On the leeward side of the island anyway. [Reply]

I've got the money and of course it's sufficiently far enough away that I could tell my family it's too expensive to come back to see them, they'll have to come to see me. [Reply]

I gave dude driving the heartiest of thumbs up and am pretty sure I saw him mouth the words "**** you" :-)
My garbage goes out tonight for the morning. I don't have a lot, so I'll pass on it this week. Those poor fuckers will have enough to do in -25 weather than have to take 30 seconds to dump mine. [Reply]

That’s the answer.
Only other advice I’d give you is if some one gives you the Shaka sign in traffic it doesn’t mean aloha. It means fuck you I’m cutting you off. [Reply]

I've seen houses that could very well be a large storage shed with a sink listed for like $300k. :-) [Reply]

Its actually worse here today than it was last Monday when they didn't come. Which makes me wonder if they went to an every other week cadence to stagger pickups. Have to image routes taking significantly longer in 3 ft of snow. [Reply]
