#114: Summertime Stupidity!

Of course, stupidity thrives all-year round, but something about the blistering hot days of summer seems to really bring out the terrible in people.

Like the yahoos who wear long-sleeve shirts and jeans while walking around declaring, “Hey, how about this heat, right?”

I hate those guys.

  1. “2. THERE ARE NO RACIAL OVERTONES…EVERYONE GETS MADE FUN OF.”

    Actually come to think of it, I think that is why I adore your blog so much!!!

    I have to admit I am one of those people who loves the extreme temperatures. I am that person who on the hottest day of the year is out dancing down the street in jeans and a tee singing about how lovely the day is.

  2. I’m acclimated since it has been 90-100′s in Colorado all summer. I will die in the air conditioning back in Wisconsin!

  3. >Like the yahoos who wear long-sleeve shirts and jeans while walking around declaring, “Hey, how about this heat, right?”
    - Yahoo! I mean, that could be me!

    I cover up completely during the day in summer because I am photosensitive. My skin tingles in an unpleasant, almost painful, manner in direct sunlight. I don’t complain about the heat though because I’m too relieved not ‘burning’ to notice the heat!

    >AND NOW, A LITTLE SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION…
    - Nothing shameless about advertising your work.

    >10. YOU WON’T HAVE TO LEAVE YOUR HOUSE TO LAUGH AT OTHER PEOPLE.
    - Doing it already just reading that line. :-)

    P.S.: I prefer your new gravatar. It’s less, um, less …. scary. Did I say that out loud? Blue is a refreshing hue, too.

  4. That 8th point killed me ..only thing that saved me was no maths required…
    hilarious points Hook…

  5. There’s nothing like “Time with The HOOk. )))HUGS((( Love the LOGO & Gravatar-Look too!

  6. As with four you daddy, I have a condition which makes me sensitive to sunlight. I’m also plagued by the let’s put the air down so.low you might think you are in Antarctica people so I try to accomodate for that too. Oh well.

  7. LOVE your logo! Very slick.

  8. Congrats on the book!
