I don't care where you live if you think that's not too hot then you are wrong sir.

Thats not too hot. Now, I don't use your filthy imperialist measurements, but I know that's around the high 30s. That's hot, but not too hot. Too hot is 43+. "I am dying, send help" is at or close to 50. If asphalt is not melting, it is not too hot.

Now let me grumble about this horrible 15C weather that just feels like utter shit.

Thats 40c according to my phone yeah.

But it fucking sucks still.

it's been years and I still can only think of

when I see "CBT."

This, despite 'cognitive behavioral therapy' being 90% of the time what is meant when I see it.

Maybe he had a critical failure using the yellow pages and he hired a dominatrix instead of a psychiatrist?

Even so, if Kagus is happy with the results I'm not going to argue about the methods

Well, I mean, she is German...

40 is plenty. I lived in Vegas, where we hit 45 in the shade. That was more than plenty.

Mercifully, it would still drop almost 30 degrees once the sun went down, since there's fuckall moisture or vegetation.

Humidity plays a huge part. When it's 95 with 10% humidity, I'm fine. 84 with 90%? I hole up with an AC and hope I don't die.

All of you are obviously cold-blooded lizard people and I'm going to shoot down the sun.

We had a pool in the backyard. The pool water was 30 degrees, naturally. Exiting the 30 degree water into the 45 degree air would leave you freezing your ass off, because the water was evaporating so quickly you'd chill down in moments.

Fun times. Better than "Why am I wearing the air?" high-humidity.

Since the sun is orbiting the galactic center, shooting it down wouldnt have any effect for a few millionish years anyway. And would make things hotter, presumably, because of the density of stars and radiation in and around the galactic core, wed be getting more incoming radiation at all times. May be just a teensy bit, but still.

Iiiiiii don't believe you really think that.

“For thousands of years, mankind has dreamed of destroying the sun! But today, I shall go beyond that! I shall exceed the greatest dream of humanity, and I shall devour the sun! It will replace my feeble and decrepit human heart, its power fuelling me and me alone, and through this I shall rule over a blackened world forever! I am invincible! I am unstoppable! I am… you know, my left arm is really hurting. I wonder why? Oh well. Today is the day of my ultim…”

Seriously though yeah, fuck the daystar. Figure out how to survive without it and I'll be the first person to stuff the damned thing in a box and launch it into some other sun.

Cute~
The creator of Cave Story made a game about a squid.  It's... cute.
Cuter than cephalopods should be.

Download links are at the bottom.  Apparently there's an english version, now!

Even in the event that was true, why would it matter?

To a certain brand of religious crazy anything from other religions or in any way involving supernatural themes is evil magic being used to corrupt children into demon worshippers.

Remember the D&D satanic panic?

... which is sadly not a parody but an actual artifact of the panic.

The movie was better

Nah, people in the 1980s were losing their minds over this shit. It would all be funny, but there are actually still people in prison because of the mass satanic hysteria, of which the Chick comics were a palatable product.

You can't "update" Dark Dungeons in the same way that you can't update "Duck and Cover". Both only make sense within the cultural milieu that created them, and they are darkly humorous only because of that. Duck and Cover is the friendly face of imminent nuclear annihilation and Dark Dungeons is the friendly face of the massive literal witch hunts that were going on in the 1980s.

You could make a better "Duck and Cover" movie, however it loses the "holy shit they really believed this crap" element, and the amount that it fails is actually an important part of the charm: The charm of the Chick comics is the same: the fact that the main character can't go visit her friend because she's "fighting the zombie" while playing D&D, completely by herself, adds to the charm, and the movie loses that.

Dark Dungeons the comic has pop-culture historical significance, the movie is just a pointless bad movie, and is only meaningful if you read the comic.

These people were accused of murdering the children and using necromancy to revive them. The Satanic Panic was utterly insane.
