It is approximately a bajillion degrees outside (90°f) and I regret any and all life choices that lead to me being outside right at this very moment.

I am too Scottish for this nonsense.

We cannae help you fam, we’re dying here. It was 30 degrees at 6.30pm, The grass has gone brown. The Highlands are literally on fire. Nowhere has any air conditioning because of course we don’t it’s f*cking Scotland

We haven’t seen rain in weeks and we’re starting to lose all sense of identity. 

My da’ keeps telling me the garden is on fire, I thought he was kidding.

Ya’ll are weak af

I get these kind of comments are typically jokey, but these are literally dangerous temperatures for people not used to them, and the UK doesn’t typically get this hot for more than a random day let alone weeks. It’s about 20°f hotter than it usually gets in some places for this time of year, so people are a) not used to it b) have no air conditioning and c) no idea how to handle this kind of heat at all and d) you dinnae ken humidity till you’ve felt Scotland in the middle of a heatwave, it’s like wading uphill through treacle, and the air sits in the lungs like swamp water. And I moved to Minnesota for gods sake. We only have two seasons, hell and frozen hell.

So maybe gonnae no wi your non helpful comments when people who never have to deal wi this kind of thing struggle tae deal wi it.

There’s nae gold medal at the end of the suffering Olympics, only gilt.

Uhh, even people that live in the heat aren’t used to it & still struggle to cope?

Try living in Australia, 90F is a breezy summers eve, it can get over 120F and you want to peel your skin off & move into the freezer.

What did I literally just say.

We risk dying almost every day in summer here but sure 😂😂😂😂 fucking hell, I knew the Europeans were the biggest babies ever but this ridiculous

Ah I see, you think being mean is actually a worthy attribute. Unfortunate.

Bye.

Cape Cod tends to get really hot in the summer and the humidity is such that nothing dries, ever. But Cape Cod is used to it and may complain a bit. But is used to it. For people who aren’t, and likely whose bodies just will not handle heat without thinking they are dying and trying to die of dehydration if it gets a degree over 80 F (I am used to it, and my body still pulls that stuff every summer, so I have to be on Oral Rehydration Salts that are typically given to hikers in the summer and kids with cholera). So below is a recipe for Oral Rehydration Salts for those who aren’t used to heatwaves and the rest of you can stfu:

½ teaspoon of salt

1 teaspoon of sugar

1 teaspoon of electrolytes, or vitamin C (lemon juice or orange juice will work just fine)

16 oz or a liter of water

Mix and drink until feeling less like your body is trying to die from sweating so much.

That recipe is going to be super helpful when the heatwave hits later this week thank you T___T

I hate posts like this. People in cold rainy places like Scotland tend not to have AC. Public buildings also tend not to have AC in Europe because it’s not second nature like how it is in the US. Also homes in cold places are built to retain heat, which can be brutal in the summer. Stop being jerks.
