Superthread LXXIV: Remembering Dead Musicians Who You Now Pretend to Like

[Misanthrope]

I've only ever experienced oppressive humidity or dry heat.

Where do they have this mild humidity you speak of?

 

[Bazal]

The entire NSW Coast for a start

Pussies.

High humidity..

f**k...not only did my side lose comprehensively to a worse side, my strike bowler has a serious knee injury.

You play with Pat Cummins?

 

[Twizzle]

glad I wasn't playing yesterday, bit of a stinker up here

it came to mind while I was sitting in the club looking out over the golf course watching the steam rise from the fairways and the beer was cold and so was the air conditioning

You know you're starved for footy when you're watching the Murri Carnival for your league fix.

Grafton 42 degree heat, 50% humidity in Christmas vs Tonga 43 degree heat, 100% humidity; the latter was far more exhausting and intense IMHO than the former.

The bit about dry heat that gets me is the furnace feeling. It feels like a bushfire, and it feels like you're actually being cooked. It is a very uncomfortable feeling; but its also easier to address with a pool. Humidity you can't escape.

Tonga sounds like where I lived in China. Three months of hell, followed up by sub zero temperatures with no central heating.

Jakarta was fine. Humidity was always around 100% but very rarely poked above 30 Degrees. It was heat you could get used too. It was pretty flat so when I was in Jakarta I used to cycle to work, and have a quick shower at the gym near the office. Can't imagine doing that in Sydney in the summer.

 

[Misanthrope]

Sounds a lot like Nanjing. Stinking hot and humid for 3-4 months, 4-5 months of bitter cold with no insulation, and a few months of acceptable weather.

 

[t-ba]

Yeah, down the river at Yichang. What a f**king shit dump that was. Summer was awfully hot but honestly it was the winters that were worse. I've never drunk more at any time of my life than when it was winter there.

 

[Misanthrope]

Yep, I could survive the summers with cold beer and aircon on 24/7. Winter absolutely crushed my spirits though. I'd become a shut-in and pack on weight eating my sadness haha.

Sorta. It doesn't drop below 50% and 25 usually, even in winter

Awwww. Hugs bro.

 

[Drew-Sta]

Koffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

I've knocked off a thousand words of my assignment in like an hour so I can go back to playing Fallout. Who says gaming kills productivity?

 

[Drew-Sta]

Can't wait to see JM's conflict here. On the one side, the gov is making legislation on what you can and can't do with your kid in society, on the other hand they're revoking benefits, which sits in his worldview since the gov should play less of a role in peoples life. The turmoil to anarchists is delicious...
