It's the first heatwave of the season! Whatever will we do?! At least all of the local news sources out there have us covered. According to the powers that be, if you feel too hot, go inside! Or failing that, sit under a shady tree. No shit Sherlock! Stay hydrated. Really? I would have fought fire with fire and refused to drink anything. Thank you for clearing that up for me. Try to avoid cooking a roast or a turkey in the oven today, maybe go for some cold sandwiches. Wow! I would have never thought of that. Brilliant!
Thank our lucky stars we have these sage givers of advice to let us know how to get through this unprecedented thing we call the summer. It's not like this season comes every year around the same time. Oh, it does? Silly me. I guess I should go sit in a hot car with the windows up, or failing that the middle of an asphalt parking lot around noon? No? Holy crap. You've saved me once again! Thank the maker we have you fine folks in the newsroom.
What are you going to tell me next? Make sure to wear a jacket and gloves in the dead of winter? Holy shit, that's the best piece of advice I think I've gotten since I was told to seek shelter during a lightening storm. It's a wonder we managed to elect Donald Trump not once, but twice. I just wish you would have told me not to spend my morning riding rail bikes in the middle of the wetlands of Cape May, New Jersey. That advice would have come in quite handy. Stupid jerks. Where were you on that one dipshits?!
are you out of your mind doing this during a heatwave
