New England heat sucks. The humidity will make 85 degrees feel like 110. Cant breath and your shirt is sticking to you within minutes.
Rarely will you get a warm day with no humidity.
I don’t really see the problem with heat. I live in Central Florida and it’s hot as balls all summer and I work out in my non-A/C garage/outside and it’s not much of a problem. Yeah it’s hot, but the more you’re in it the more you are used to it. And it beats being inside wasting away any day.

Agreed. Not to sound like a whiney bitch, but New Englanders might have it the worst: extreme humidity in the summer months and what seems like (at the time) endless amounts of snow during the winter. That said, I wouldn’t trade our short spring or fall for anything…being in the heat for 3 months and trudging through snow for another 5 months really makes you appreciate the other 4 months.
Because of a restriction where I currently live I can’t have A/C at my apartment…I have to say, enabler or not that box of electric comfort is like heaven to me right now.

Come to somewhere like South Carolina, Georgia, or Louisiana…where the humidity makes 105 degrees feel like 120. It was 116 with the heat index today.
Southern Indiana, 90s, humid as hell, mowing the family plot out in the Hoosier National Forest, with ticks crawling up your legs. Welcome to hell.
Whoever invented air conditioning should be made a saint…seriously.
I’m sitting here right now and I’m uncomfortable because I’m cold. My mom wants the AC on and it’s cold to me. I went outside to get the mail and it’s perfect, high 80s and some humidity but I like it. No need for the AC IMO. This is one reason why I don’t pay the electric bill.
But I’m usually the one who is always cold. Here in CT, I despise the winters. It really doesnt matter how much clothes I wear, if I am not doing some kind of physical work, I am cold.
I love the heat. I would take 100 degrees every day of the year over 50 or 60, nevermind 20s and 30s. When I move out, I’m going south, I’m a tropical person lol.
I went outside today during my lunch break. You needed gills to be able to breathe!
I’m not complaining though because before I know it, it will be 5 fukin’ degrees, there will be a foot of snow on the ground and it will be dark when I got to work and dark when I leave work.
Great, now I’m pissed off…
It was pretty brutal today. I know I said I love the heat but leg day in the heat led to my throwing up today. Maybe a little less heat next time would be better. Or maybe some of that “evil enabler” in the gym aka garage.
