Too hot. Come to me, delicious winter.
Ah, that looks like heaven right now.
My apartment is a humid, hot, sticky mess. I should go get an AC unit :\
I live in London, so yeah, we wouldn't play each other.
For a few summers we had no AC. Ended up picking up a small 5400BTU window unit. It would basically cool one small room, or at least an area in the small room. But this year, our friends who are moving to Newfoundland gave us their 14,000BTU portable unit.. hohoho..
14000! Mmmmm
I've been thinking of picking up a ~5000 BTU Window Unit, but it'd probably only cool off my bedroom which I usually only sleep in. Being able to sleep in a cool room would be the best, last night was torture, I kept waking up covered in sweat
. But, at the same time I wouldn't mind being able to keep my living room cool because that's where my PC and TV are setup. But the cost difference between a window unit ($99) and a Portable Unit ($399+) I just can't afford right now. :<I don't mind when it's warm out. But when you throw in the humidity and it's "30 but feels like 40", I get a little uncomfortable. I prefer a dry heat.
I'll bitch about it but I love it. The only time I hate the heat is when I go to bed. I like to be freezing cold and warm up as I sleep.
You're sick.
California heat is a nice heat. This is not nice heat.

I like every season of the year. Summer is probably my least favorite because of the heat but I would hate to lose it. I enjoy each season for different reasons.

i was at wonderland yesterday. unbelievably hot
The line ups were short I hope. I went on the weekend 2 weeks ago. It was pure madness with lines.
I got a 5000 BTU 'Haier' brand window air conditioner recently for $99 at futureshop. Works great for one bedroom. My room was like a freezer.14000! Mmmmm

I would love to get a model train of an old Toronto streetcar for my mom's Christmas village setup.I like every season of the year. Summer is probably my least favorite because of the heat but I would hate to lose it. I enjoy each season for different reasons.

5000 BTU seems to be the minimum and that's about all you need for a bedroom.
I think after I get back from my trip to Calgary I'm gonna pick up a cheap $99 one.
line ups were pretty awesome. This was the first time I've gone in about 4 years and the wait times were much shorter than I ever remembered. Things like vortex usually took hours to go on but this time around it only took 15 minutes.
p.s. LEVIATHAN IS FUCKING AWESOME!
Nah, you're not the only one loving this weather. It's great! It's weird though. I'll gladly spend all day outside in "30 feels like 40" weather and not really notice it too much as long as I stay out of the sun, but once it starts hitting 26-27 inside it starts getting to me.

After so much procrastination, I started running again yesterday and I almost died. Today I'm considering just treadmilling it, but I really prefer outdoor running.
At least try to wait until after 8pm. The weather and air will agree with you much more.

Stet is banned?!
I hope it's temp... :'(

Probably from the deadbeat dad thread. Looks like he was really getting into it with some people.
edit: Stet says the ban is a month for the ranting in the thread above. He wants kraftwerk to know he loves him and that he'll never miss the meetup. Come talk to him in irc.wiicafe.com channel #toronto-age
Okay, thanks to the information in this thread:

I am finally going to ditch Rogers.
I heard Teksavvy was having growing pains regarding speeds lately, have they been taking care of that or will it be a whole other set of problems if/when I switch to them?

They won't let you sign up if there's 'no room' in your area, so you won't have problems if you do switch to them. The best way to find out if they're accepting new clients in your area is to e-mail, or call them. They're usually pretty responsive. The fellas at dslreports.com can usually give you some good advice too.

Ha, not much chance of that. I'm with TSSC.
I do play in that one as well, but on a co-ed team on Thursdays.
4/10 on the weird scale by TTC standards.
Oh, I know. I know.
Sigh. Been without power for almost 4 hours now
If it's any consolation, I got this info in my twitter feed an hour ago:
Toronto Hydro ‏@TorontoHydro
Outage update 2: caused by contained fire in circuit breaker; likely 3-4 hours for restoration. Additional crew deployed to help

Just be thankful it's not 2pm and 42 outside.

Hold on, friend! I'd love to share with you some swell news about the Windows 8 Metro UI! Wait, where are you going?
Cool, hopefully it comes back soon. I'm mostly worried about the $50 of meat we just bought thats sitting in the fridge.
Yeah. No shit. Although if it had happened then we likely would be with my parents until it came back. Right now I'm just thankful for the occasion cool breeze from the window.
I actually ran into these guys near queen and john as I was leaving work on monday. Cool guys.
I think they meant 20. Yeah.

Good thing I'm in an apartment and our A/C is simply on/off!
I know, I was being sarcastic. In my need for cool. lol
