You know when it's hot down under (Australia) if...
 
1. The best carpark is determined by shade, not distance.

2. Hot water comes out of both taps.

3. You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a good branding iron.

4. The temp drops below 32 degrees C (89.6 F) and you feel chilly.

5. You learn it only takes 2 fingers to steer a car.

6. You can sunburn through the windscreen of a car.

7. You develop a fear of door handles.

8. You break into a sweat @ 7am

9. Your biggest bicycle fear is "what if I get knocked out and end up cooking on the road".

10. You realise asphalt is a liquid state.

11. Farmers are feeding chickens ice to prevent hard boiled eggs.

12. The trees are whistling for dogs.

13. Shopping Centres are temples where you worship Air Conditioning

14. Sticking your head in freezers is considered normal

15. A cup full of ice is considered a great snack

16. A blackout is life threatening because the air con and fans stop working.

17. You keep everything in the fridge, including clothing

18. The effort of towelling yourself off after a shower means you need another shower right away

19. You worry the ceiling fan is spinning so fast it will fly off and kill you

20. You laugh because you know this list is so accurate.

...when the poisonous spiders have to rest before eating the poisonous moths in their web.

...when the poisonous jellyfish won't come to the surface to attack the poisonous crocodiles.

...when the poisonous snakes bask in the roadways awaiting the poisonous wallabies near the poisonous watering hole.

Nickhead 12-29-2017 12:46 AM

A witches tit is a hot commodity.

When you talk about the lack of sex from the wife your guy friends seem interested.

The thought of a hemorrhoid seems soothing. same for a burning cross...

Watching snow sking on tv becomes a daily activity

Neither is fun, but at least I can function in 100+ heat. Fingers don't work in the cold.


Everything is worse except keeping drinks cold.

I keep my Mt.Dew in the garage so that when I open it, it will turn to a slushy.
Hope this works. https://www.facebook.com/48846131450...1552070865309/

Technically, those would be venomous.

They could always copy that town where everyone lives underground, and start digging. Well, unless that disturbs the venomous giant spiders or something.

I really wanted to visit that underground town when I toured around Australia many years ago, but my travel pal had other priorities.

Well, they should start selling it. They could buy air conditioning.

Have you ever been there? I'm intrigued by it.

Nickhead 12-29-2017 05:38 PM

Stupid computer upload.

pretty cool. the in laws froze a can of coke accidentally. put it in the fridge and the top of the can flew off and spewed all over the fridge items ROFL

displacedinMN 12-29-2017 08:44 PM

I had a can of cherry Dr Pepper explode in the fridge. It looked like someone had been murdered and shoved in the fridge.

I'm not quite that old yet.

By Wednesday of next week, I'll probably have to break out the heavy winter clothes. Chiefs sweat shirt and house shoes

I've been there, stayed in an underground hotel and everything. I also had to fix the throttle on my Toyota Corona in the middle of the night and a passing officer thought I was stealing it.

I had a buddy who left a can of coke in the back of a hatch back in the sun on a 110 F day.

The can got a hairline fracture and spewed a fine mist that coated the entire inside of the car and baked in the sun for hours. Even the car detailing place couldn't get rid of the stickiness.

Screw the heat. I would rather deal with cold.

Did you mine any opals, or can only residents do that?

And was it worth the trip?

I think I might be lacking some of the equipment to take advantage of that opportunity.

I did not mine any opals, I'm not sure how one does that. We lived in Adelaide at the time and drove to Uluru, Coober Pedy was just a stop on the way. It was neat, but wouldn't have been worth it as the ultimate destination of the trip.

you mean you couldn't have gotten a 30 million dollar loan from your bank with a guaranteed return of 30000 percent return?

the day i read about the shale reserves, was the first day i ever thought about buying stocks :D
