Suffering all this wet stuff? it is about time we learned to share, i will trade
the countries that are (arid) a days deluge, for a days sunshine.

hey i literally died yesterday from heat stroke, like I'm posting from hades right now. those people have nothing to complain about.

Yeah, being flooded out of your home and having everything you own destroyed is a walk in the park compared to a bit of heat stroke :rolleyes:
 
Here in Pennsylvania it's been hot (around 95F). I can't imagine what it is like in Florida if it's that hot here.

With regards to the rain in the UK you should blame the ocean currents. You guys have the same problem as the Northwest US. But look on the bright side. The same ocean currents that bring you the rain also make sure you have mild winters. If you live here or in New York or New England and you learn to hate snow very quickly.

the fact that you are still alive and posting?
 
No, he actually meant he was posting from hades right now.

The Internet reaches further than I thought...

But everybody has to use crappy underpowered notebooks with exploding batteries and wireless gear that drops connections repeatedly.

The changeover to wireless increased the judgement of the dead tenfold so I wouldn't expect ice to last too long there.

I think current etiquette limits the number of puns in one thread to 3. Come on guys, let's not be rude here.
