Southerners In The Summer

- It's officially summertime in the South. I don't care what the calendar says. Get your frying pan ready, make friends with your Air Conditioner, and find your nearest 24-hour gas station (for reasons I will explain in this video).
Subscribe or your outside eggs will burn
Thanks Matt! Another good one.
I was in a Sneaky Pete's gas station last month and those old men who hang out there were mocking me for being a rich man since I was buying an energy drink..he said Boy I wish I was a rich man buying them 5 dollar drinks!..it could've been a sketch!
What if I don’t eat outside eggs?
Ever thought about doing any stand up? I feel with your quality of jokes, delivery and timing you'd appeal to people outside of the South as well. Love the videos. Keep killin it!
Hmm...how about "Subscribe or get a sweaty hug from Humidity"?
(Laughs in Texan) It aint hot.
You nailed it with the 15-second thunderstorm. 😂
The only thing wrong with it was it looked overcast. Our rain happens in full sun 😅
We have a week of Vietnamese jungle rain every summer
Forgot about the 500% increase in humidity brought on by 15 drops of rain. Florida is not for the weak.
My grandfather always says "If you don't like the weather just wait a minute... it'll change."
So true. 😂
I work for FDEP (Florida Department of Environmental Protection), back when the state was first being surveyed they pulled chains with mules to survey land. After losing a mule to BLOOD LOSS from the horse flies, biting flies, and mosquitos they decided surveying was not to be done in the summer months. In one instance a man counted 40 alligators in the square he was supposed to be surveying so he stopped counting and said they could have that square. No joke!
He was probably joking but serious
@mattwhaley1865 Yep, we have the old log books here in the state lands vault. He did not finish lol. I'm sure at some point it was done, but not by him, not that day. Lol
😲
Say "Not today, Gators!"
WOW
It's not the heat, it's the humidity. And the heat.
Right!!! 😂😂😂😂
Heat + humidity = steam. Used for cooking lobsters and running turbo generators.
“Humid enough to poach an egg on the sidewalk.”
My daddy (a northern transplant who's only been in Miss 35 years) calls it "Lipton soup weather" because if you throw up a packet of Lipton, it'll be soup before it hits the ground.
Ah...a good mixture between *AND,* and *_OR_* 😂😂😂😂
The 1 minute summer thunderstorm, that happens while the sun is still shining, followed by heavy steam coming up from the roads with thick mugginess in the air.😅🥵😭
Sounds just like North Carolina summers! 👌
@@musicnerd72 happens in kentucky too, snowed 5 minutes later.
@@psychlord1 Oh yeah... Especially in late winter / early spring.
Yup
Well y’all know when it rains and the suns out… the devils beating his wife…
"If you go into a Dollar General and the layout makes sense, then you're having a heat stroke."🤪
I've worked at Dollar General for 2 years. the layout has never made sense, there were 4 spots for batteries, just name one weird thing.
The A/C unit sweet talk was so relatable. 😂 Ours goes out at least once every summer.
Yeah, I've had mine go out twice over the years. Though the first time it didn't actually go out. Turns out the painters were washing their stuff up outside my apartment and decided to turn off the power to the A/C unit since it was so close to the faucet. Yeah, I wasn't too happy when I figured that one out.
@nanoflower1 Omg! I woulda cried. I hose my down once a week to keep it clean.
@@nanoflower1 to be fair, I wouldn’t want to be electrocuted either
@@jenniferbates2811 we keep ours clean too but that isn't why ours goes out every year. We have an old unit that requires freeon. It always runs out by the time next summer rolls around.
@@imakeajiffypuff4525 Oh, I see.
I have been asking myself that question about, "Did we really play out in this when we were kids?" Doesn't seem possible but we know we did!
Sure did! We played basketball, kickball, rode bikes, climbed trees, climbed onto roofs, and jumped off, got sweaty and itchy from playing in the grass, and kept ourselves hydrated by drinking from the water hose. Now, I break into a sweat just walking from my car to my office.
I don't know about you but I hung out on/ under the porch if I wasn't allowed in the kiddie swimming pool. But then we didn't keep have El Nino/La Nina kicking up 20 hurricanes a season either.
I was just telling my kids last night how we went outside after breakfast and didn't come back in till the streetlights came on. They were like "how did you not die?!" I swear it wasn't this hot then ☀️🥵
We didn't weigh as much back then. Lol
I played Dixie Youth baseball back in the day. We wore full uniforms in July/August and I swear it wasn’t this hot! I’d eat a whole pizza, down about half a gallon of sweet iced tea and go play a double header, first game at 3pm and I swear it wasn’t this hot! Now I wear shorts to work and I dang near die!😂
Like a Little Caesars Hot n' Ready, that was brilliant. The Dollar General part is gold as usual.
More of an off-yellow, like the Dollar General sign.
"...the heat, the humidity, the gnats, the wasps, snakes, mosquitoes, depending on where you live, alligators... you're lucky to make it out of here alive." 🤣🤣🤣
Don’t forget the noseeums…UGH
In southeast Texas we literally just lost a young man to a gator.
It’s quite sad actually and a very legitimate concern.
Now a couple years ago we lost an idiot to gators because he saw the “GATORS, NO SWIMMING “ sign and decided it was bs.
Not sad that time.
Yeah, I used to think we had a lot of bugs here in Ohio but you guys don't get any breaks.
@@kevinerose Hello fellow Ohioan. October with the midges is the closest we get to what they have, huh?
I just retired from Phoenix Arizona and moved back to Billings, Montana. We had a 24 degrees BELOW ZERO day in December. Right now they are on day 12 of temperatures ABOVE ONE HUNDRED TEN degrees. Don't worry, it cools off to Ninety at night. As my Dad said: If it is cold, you can always put on another sweater. When it is that hot, you can only take off so many clothes before it becomes a felony. I lived in Arizona for 32 years. I'll take another sweater any day.
Rains for five minutes, just long enough to turn everything into a sauna when the sun peeks back out.
Yep!
Haha, I love the “hotter than a tweakers copper stash” line… you have great writers on this show
I had to look that one up!:🤦♀️
I live in the midwest and immediately got it!
Fun fact: the video cut off before Matt could pass out as the humidity went to 1000% after that 3-second rain shower that happens every day at 3:30 in the afternoon.
Truth!
I live with my grandma in the South, and I can relate to the Perry Mason all day marathon. On the highest volume... All day... Every day
I lost it at that part of the video lmao 🤣😂
It's better than seeing fox news all day
I grew up when they were still making the series (which I guess makes me Grandma) and I would sit in the living room with Daddy and watch them. We were the only people in the family who liked them, but I could definitely marathon them today....
Now it is CSI and Criminal Minds! LOL
My mom-in-law does the all-day westerns marathon..... nothing like Gunsmoke and Cheyenne being blared all day.... i especially love the gun shots that ring out from the living room at random times.....
Andy Griffith marathon >>>>
We've actually had 10 days of spring here in SC. It was nice except for the wind and rain. And lightning.
Moved from the ATL to the Upstate last year and was surprised we didn't get more cold weather than in GA, but the spring time was a delight - so much more pleasant weather before it started getting hot vs. GA where you basically start summer in March.
Yeah, it was nice for a while. Then the intense heat came.
I live in Texas but spent 3 years in Georgia with no A.C. and in comparison, its paradise over here. It only gets into the triple digits 6 months of the year instead of 9. Our mosquitos are bigger, but I think they are lazier we still have "water bugs " big enough to put a saddle on but that's a good thing since the horses refuse to leave the shade of the lonely little mesquite tree, they are hiding under. All in all summer is better in Texas than Georgia or Alabama. It's all relative and if you live up north you can't possibly understand, but bless your heart anyway.
I live in Illinois & showed professionally showed horses in the midwest , so very familiar w/ severe heat 'n humidity !😅 Maybe not as many hot months as you guys , but then, we haul horses in snow 'n ice too . We hardly have Spring or Fall anymore , w/ Fall being the only reason 99% of us live here !! 🤣 Fall = warm days , cool nights ... ahhhhh .... June 2nd so just a few months to go ! Stay cool , friend ! 🥰
There's a reason that the devil went down to Georgia............
I once visited a cousin in Ludiwici(sp??), and broke out in a sweat going from the car to the front door. Couldn't have been more than 20 quick steps. I always thought I was good with the heat bf that day.
Chicago Yankee resided in Warner-Robins & Hotlanta a few years and summers? Whoooooeeeeeee. Hot mess is about right.
True. I don't understand, in Ohio. I've been trying to understand ever since the last half of 2023. I'll take that over polar vortex. I've done polar vortex three times, and then one winter with 66 consecutive days under 20 degrees. I've had enough. If only I could bring on the south, up here in the north.
I love your videos, Matt! God bless you! As a Southerner from east Tennessee you nailed it, but you forgot the ticks and the steam rising after the 10 second rain shower!🤣🤣
You Gotta Love It!!!😂😂😂
Beyond brilliant!!!! I don't know how he comes up with some of these things like the mosquito asking for iced blood. Too funny, all of this, hysterical.
My grandma's house didn't have all-day Perry Mason marathons, but that was because Grandma and Grandaddy (Love ya, miss you both all the time) were Andy Griffith Show fans, so there was a lot of that going on.
Love Andy Griffith.
At least it wasn't Matlock.
Grandad once said "Don't like the weather boy? Give it five seconds"
Here in NW Ohio we give it 15 minutes. Yesterday it was 90 in the day, 56 at night. This morning it's a balmy 70. Gotta love the variety.
Gotta love the random bits of rain that only exist to keep the humidity high.
I have lived in Florida all my life so I can attest to ALL of this being true.
I've seen iguanas, alligators, snakes and more.
Noseeums. We encountered those damned things at Melborne a few years ago. I'll take the carrier-plane sized mosquitos back here in Texas over those critters. Ewwwww.
That little Ceasers line got me! We always hot and ready down here!! Hahaha. 😂
“You’re lucky to make it outta here alive.” 😂
The AC definitely deserves some love in the south during the summer 🌞
It does, and it knows when it doesn't get it
I have lived in Alabama for 70 years and I can remember at 8 years old cracking an egg over a rock and watching it fry. The dog loved it. By the way we did not have A/C until I was 14. Love the videos and it is great to be able to relate to your comments.
I would just like to bring up the fact that Utah can both keep beverages on the porch in the winter and fry an egg in the summer. I'm just glad I don't have to fight humidity too.
Well I'll be darned. As a southerner that moved to Utah to marry my true love, i can honestly say... The thermometer might be the same, but somehow yall's summers just feel kinda nice in comparison
@SonOfMyths73 it's the lack of humidity. Going in the shade actually makes a difference. However, because it is a desert, if you leave the lush(er, it's obviously nothing like the South), the dryness saps everything from you.
@@CanisMythson I agree. My son lives in Colorado and when I visit there in summer temps in the 90's feel like about 70 here. BUT - when it first reaches the 70s here my son is still getting snow, so there's a trade off for sure.
@@CanisMythson Oh it is so much a thing, we moved from Mississippi to Indiana (still humid enough to drown a june bug, but with bonus feet of snow come winter) then to Nevada, and so long as you carry water with you EVERYwhere, it's not so bad. 85F/85% is way worse than 100F /10% humidity. Shade or a breeze and you'll sweat the heat away without even noticing it.
I live in Kentucky it's the same deal here but there's several creeks on the property I live so I went outside to grill one day and I could breathe from the humidity
Spot on Matt. Hits home for me. I'm a New Orleanian (no, no, I'm not asking for sympathy, but maybe for a bulletproof vest!) currently living and working in Egypt. My wife and I are heading back to southern Louisiana in late June and I'm actually looking forward to the Louisiana summer. Easy for me to say that now but ask me again in August, right? Cheers!
SO TRUE, Y'ALL. Our central unit broke last Summer and we're trying to stay cool with a old window unit. My hubby is on oxygen 24-7 due to Covid damaging his lungs.
Im on oxygen 24/7 as well....COPD. Dont those oxygen machines make the house hotter than Hades waiting room?
@@queenbee3647 my Hubby has an oxygen concentrator and it really does heat his room up. We had to put a window unit in his room to counteract the heat from the concentrator.
@queenbee yes, that's why we have it another room and he uses a 50 foot cord.
I've been on oxygen 24/7 my whole life, so I can relate. It can be so annoying needing to breathe.
Oh no, I hope he gets better in time :(
My wife grew up in North Dakota. They did not have spring. They had a saying that spring came one morning while you were in the shower. They went from stupid cold and snow to stupid hot. Then back to snow then hot again. I grew up in New England where we had cold winters and a long spring. Then it sometimes got into the 80s in the summer for a day or two. My Mom was from Georgia and never wanted to go back... Now I know why.
That thunder shower at the end was so accurate though lol
It’s actually been down right cool this year… normally in May I have sweated my butt off… take the blessing… because it is coming… thank you Matt for the laughs.
I've been watching you retell my entire childhood and adult life these last couple of years, and just wanted to say thank you!
That thunderstorm!! I know I’m in Iowa (for shame, I know), but I had FOUR of those yesterday! And they were only happening on my side of town, not where my folks live! My mom was jealous because she’d have to water her garden 😂
This happens in Florida, too! My grandfolks will get thunderstorms every afternoon, while my mom living 30 minutes south will get no rain for WEEKS! I've literally seen the line on wet asphault in the middle of the street, where one neighbor's getting rain and the other one's grumbling about watering the lawn.
@@gigim.9742 Isn’t weather crazy?! And the downpours happened while it was sunny!
I live in Michigan, this year it went from 60 to 85 overnight. Also just learned my air condition is 38 years old. I really hope it doesn't stay this hot, that air condition was made before Michigan hit 90s in the summer.
Illinois too - winter to summer !
I hope your AC makes it. I wanted to do a refresh of my 35 year old machine back in March. Turns out the refrigerant it uses was banned last year. $15K later, I have an entirely new system that I had not budgeted for. I was tempted to just run it until it died but, it's Texas. We might have died with it.
@@aderi31415 Ouch - what a big financial hit ! Say a prayer of long life over your new system ... seriously ! 🥰
As a Floridian from June-early September it feels like I am living inside the sun.
I look forward to him mentioning the Blizzard of ‘93 and I’m from the UK!! I love this channel ♥️👍
Thanks for the laughs Matt. I spent the month of August in Louisiana when I was very young....and a 5 foot stick lady. It wasn't too hot but so humid EVERY THING stuck to me. I had to cool myself in front of the AC unit at the hotel just so my clothes didn't rip when I took them off to shower. 😂
Remember when window units first came available to homes? I parked m'self in front of it and would not budge.
@@dawnreneegmail I do remember. My dad bought one and put it in their bedroom. He closed off the stairs with a curtain and closed doors to the kitchen so to cool the living room as well as their bedroom. My brother and I slept on cots in the living room. Though it was like camping it was heavenly to fall asleep much easier and it was more quiet with windows closed. Back then we also would have left front and back doors open using only the screen doors with simple latches. My first car with AC I didn't get until 1980... and I still had B&W TV at that time. Certainly not the good old days since I arose at 4:30 AM so to percolate my coffee on the gas stove before heading out to work. My 1980 car with AC was a standard transmission stick shift. 😂
I will never forget the heat, rain, gnats, skiters, ants, gators, roaches politely referred to as water bugs, and humidity.
🥵🕷️🐜🪰 Great one Matt!!!
I was talking to a woman who had lived in Florida and she called palmetto bugs "palomino bugs," apparently because that's what a native told her they were, and then she said, "I know why they call them that: they're big enough to ride on!"
(She didn't say so, but they also FLY.)
I love the term “water bug” cause “giant cockroach that can also fly” just doesn’t roll off the tongue.
My favorite hotter than expression is hotter than two cats bangin’ in a wool sock. Not the cleanest expression, you don’t want to say that in front of granny, but it gets the point across.
@@snowwhite5842 you could always call them "palomino bugs".... ;)
Roches are also called Palmetto bugs.
Good one Matt. We’re laughing out loud over here🤣😂😆😁
Bonus for working moms in the south - summertime mailbox pot roast - pop it in the mailbox - done when you get home. You'll need to get yourself a post office box, however, for your mail.
I say all the time that it is so much hotter and more humid than when I was a kid.
I'm glad this is a thing, but now I wonder why we feel this way.
You right!! This ain't the same heat we had when we were little playing outside all day!! But we played in mud holes 😂
As a life-long Texas boy, I recently got a job in New York. Up here, the sun comes up at 5am, and it stays up until 10pm. I haven't seen a night sky in weeks.
I'll take the Texas heat, so long as it means the sun comes up and goes down when it's supposed to.
Wait until winter, when the sun comes up takes a look around and goes back to its hole for six months.
I was in Canada for a week, once. The sun came up at 3.
I worked nights up near Seattle. In the winter I went to work in the dark, drove all night and came home in the dark. Those were 10+ hour days. Loved the sun coming up over the mountains in the summer though.
i'm from ukraine and those are normal summer sunrise/sunset hours to me. what time do they happen in texas?
edit: well, the actual sunrise is later and the sunset is earlier, i just mean we have the same 5am to 10pm "it's light outside" range as NYC
@@MyroslavaRm 630am to 8pm in the summer is normal for Texas
An "all-day Perry Mason marathon at mema's" ! YES! Speaking DIRECTLY to my childhood. 😂😂
When it’s 118 and starts raining, but just long enough to jack up the humidity.
I like seeing the simmering steam rising up from the pavement when it rains on those days. Might as well add some atmosphere.
I saw a British RUclipsr complaining about the heatwave they were having, calling the day a “real sizzler.” It was 25C there. That’s 77F. 🔥🔥🔥
This is the weather that really makes Indiana the South of the North. Indy 500 ozone warnings, 90+ temps, random thunder storms, breathing smoke from Canadian fires, and I understood every joke in Matt's video.
You're a comedic genius Mr. Matt! Love the videos. I'm going to go get stung by a wasp now.
OMG my mawmaw sat and watched Perry Mason all day while we were outside. 😂😂😂 That and In The Heat Of The Night and Matlock. 😂
Northern california subscriber here, pls be kind. As a Yankee, yes, please check in on those Yankee neighbors. 🥰 And just sayin, the south isn't the only place where tweaker copper stash bandits hit. Those bandits are all over rural No Cal 24/7. Also, the sierra nevada mountains can have daily, quick and powerful thunder storms. And as an extra bonus, they set off a catastrophic wildfires...woohoo!!! Finally, the bear caves in gas station stores are the best. I mean, I love them when it's hot, but I can't even imagine living in HEAT AND HUMIDITY. Stay cool friends!
Matt , the best part is the thunderstorm that lasts 30 seconds . It just happened here a couple hours ago .
LOL...on that last one where it rained for a few seconds, you forgot to add the steam coming up from the ground and your clothes. I describe to people from out west how a hot flash feels, like a southern heatwave and to the northerners, I explain it as you're in the kitchen on a hot July day cooking with every burner on and the oven on broil and you open the oven door and the blast of heat that hits you in the face...yeah, that's a hot flash.
Now I'm having flashbacks to the mile long walk home from high school. That was absolutely brutal and I never attended Summer school. It was "Spring."
Almost at 300000 Thousand Subs, Well deserved Matt. 👏👏👏
So funny! Having a bit of a heatwave in southern Ontario right now but we refuse to turn the ac on since it hasn’t been that many weeks since we turned the furnace off.
I’m in the cool basement pretending to do laundry 😜
Especially love that if you’re in Dollar General (have been in one once ☝️) and the layout makes sense you’re having a heat stroke. 🤣
hotter than a tweaker's copper stash. LOL!!! Pretty accurate all the way around.
If you put out 3 to 5 of these videos a day, I’ll watch everyone twice. (but the heat and humidity will still get me.)
You nailed a Florida summer just right. Just sit tight in the car and the rain will be over with in a minute. I swear when we moved to Florida in 1974 it wasn't this hot out. But only that first apartment complex had a swimming pool. Best summer ever. After that we played in the garden hose. Or I spent the afternoon in the bathtub dumping cool water over my head. Momma couldn't afford the light bill if I turned the AC down.
Thanks for the memories.
👵☮️🖖
I loved the 15-sec thunderstorms when I was a lifeguard. Everyone is out of the pool for 30 min.
“Hotter than a tweaker’s copper stash.” 🤣🤣🤣
Loved the little thunderstorm at the end. lol
In Texas, we only have two seasons - “summer or fixin’ to be summer”…. And we like it that way…… well, except when its 100, or humid, or the bugs are out, or the snakes, or the A/C is down, or you can’t touch your steering wheel, or the drought starts, or, or, or…. #dontmesswithtexas….
Love your content! As a Northern Transplant working at UTK, you have become a staple video content I watch on lunch break haha.
Gnats!! I moved here to Mobile from Seattle last October. We have gnats up there for sure. I think ours must be a different species. Ours up there were more of a solo wandering nomad type. Sure, they go for the face, but you could shoo them away with a couple of Van Damme chops in the air. You guys down south have coordinated squadrons that work in an attack pattern that is as complex as it is relentless. These squadrons are led by Kamikaze gnats that inspire the rest of the gnats by flying into your ears, your eyes, or your nose.
That was brilliant. Thanks
So true about being fighting hot 😂😂😂
People tend to be madder when it’s over 90 degrees 😂😂
Upper East Tennessee in the '80s, if you moved part of a shirt off of your arm, you heard a peeling sound. Also, on the hottest days, some really, really weird bugs started showing up outdoors. Also also, parts of the car that were made of black plastic would soften up and kind of melt.
Don’t blink or you’ll miss that shower, but not the humidity it brought!
As a southern native those long springs come with a price. 4th winter is brutal
Matt you nailed it 👏 i actually had a heat stroke last year while working in a restaurant next to a dishwasher and combined with my epilepsy i actually was in the hospital for a while 😅 now my family doesn't want me to be outside during the day even though stuff needed to be done i still do it anyway but i just go inside when i start seeing spots and even remotely thinking dollar general set up makes a lick of sence and it is currently 79⁰ in harrah Oklahoma was 94⁰ earlier tonight got some rain and storms coming tomorrow and tons of humidity
Ma had epilepsy Matt, blessings and got a medic alert bracelet to tell us NOT to call an ambulance for ya?!
@@dawnreneegmail na im ok 👍 i just gotta avoid the heat now 😮💨 and my doctor told me im no longer able to work again because of the heat and the stress combine with my epilepsy is not a good mix so now im starting the long journey of trying to get socal security disability or some other kinda government assistance for the rest of my life not exactly happy with it but i still cook i volunteer one-time a year for a week to cook at a church camp called fallscreek for my church they keep the cabben extra cold so im not worried about it and i take breaks to get water and gator aid or some other electrolytes 🤷♂️ and im on 6 different types of meds now two of them are for sezers of two different types the other two are for migraine headaches and sleep plus i do akido for a workout witch is martial arts and i try and stay away from drama and bullshit still keep up with vaccinations like flu shot and i make hotsause as hobby makes a little bit of money on the side not much get my natural zink vitamin c and other vitamins that way too 🤷♂️
Haven't lived in the South for almost 17 years, leaving after high school, but all of this rings true! Especially the random 10-minute rain while it is still sunny! 🤣
As kids we would cool off with garden hose, or jump in the the closest creek. And fight for that little bit of shade, swings were the best fans without electricity.
You fool yourself into thinking that the ten second thunderstorm will cool things down, and then the humidity decides to become a full body sweater on your skin.
I have always wondered how those folks who came here from Scotland and Ireland ever survived their first summer.
That's why most of them headed to the Appalachian mountains, it's cooler up there.
You didn’t have cars and a lot of pavement then like now.Also we don’t have as many trees as they did then.
Texas summer got me saying "Oh thank god its only the high 90s today, 15 degrees cooler than the last week!"
The “See Rock City” birdhouse is a STAPLE in a Southern front lawn 😂
Another classic Matt, thanks. Also I hope you congratulated Adam Schwartz on the new addition to his family. :-)
Oof I feel this, last year we had a pipe bust then 2 weeks later when we finally got that fixed our AC sounded like someone threw a brick in a drier.
Southern summer. There's nothing like the feeling of sinking into the blacktop parking lot on a summer afternoon.
"If you go in a dollar general and the layout makes sense, you're having a heat stroke" STO P P 🤣
Love it!!!!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂 Especially the 15 second thunderstorm!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just moved to NC in 2020 and oh my GOD summer does not end! I miss seasons! Also your shirts are looking really big on you. Every single video (and I know these are usually filmed 1-3 months in advance) shows you just getting slimmer and healthier. As someone on their own weight loss journey, you're an inspiration and no mistake. Keep going. I can't wait to see the fit, healthy guy your adorable girls are gonna have as a daddy soon! :D
Moved from Florida to NC in 2012 and one of my favorite things is that we have seasons here, lol. Spring in FL is like a 2 day event where the temperature is around 85, and humidity is around the same. Next day, both are in the 90s.
@karenwinston8911 I was PA to NC and I'm still not over the weather culture shock
@@QueenAqua - I am Yankee who moved South in around 2010. Yes, still miss seasons.
NC has seasons. Summer, summer, fall for a week, and cold time
Seasons? 😂
Last year was ONE week of spring and 9 months of straight SUMMER summer. Work was a nightmare. I was never so excited for winter in my life.
I will admit, this unseasonable coolness this year.... ALMOST. Makes up for last year. Almost. I will still never forgive you summer...
Is it weird that even as a kid I'd probably be totally into a Perry Mason marathon? I used to watch that over breakfast before going to school.
Re: Beer Cave. At least us here in the American South actually have AC. Bless you, Saint Carrier!
I read news stories a couple years back of grocery stores in Germany that for a charge of a few Euros would let people sit in their freezers for a few minutes to avoid heat exhaustion. Yeah, they may act all cool and tough, but they forget that they get hot summers too, and they are NOT equipped to survive them like we are. Especially the British, who just get stubborn about it; mention air con to a Brit and you might as well have run over their cat.
I am a nurse, and once did a travel contract to Arizonia. I walkes outside one August day after work, the locals had all been coming in complianing about the heat, so expected the worst. I got iutside and said, aw its not hot, this is spring like, good football weather. The locals screamed its HOT! Its a hundred degrees! I said no it aint, its maybe 75, 78. They pointed to the themature on the wall outside and it read 101. I said that got to be broken. But at 10% humidity, it felt like that one week of comfortable fall to me. They all melting and i hadnt even broke a sweat walking to my car and back. LOL
Mosquitoes are carrying off children and small pets!!😂😂
I recently broke the lemon pyrex sun tea jar that was handed down to me from my mother in law. I'm pretty sure I'm cursed with 7 years more miserable summers lol
Well now we know who to blame lol! Sorry you lost an heirloom piece.
7 years? You meant decades. You'll get to live a nice long life.... soley for living through the summers here. 😉😂

True Northerner Fan again: "...and the Yankee Transplants you know they're struggling" - It's 90 degrees up here right now and it's only the turn of June. It was just a nice 65-70 and boom, the south came up here to visit. Thanks for coming to say hi but next time send a warning or something? :D
Love the pop-up thunder storm that last 5 seconds....so true!!
Thanks Matt. I needed this today.
5 second thunderstorm, humidity increases 600%
I just moved from NJ to Arkansas and now I totally understand these! 🤣😂💯
The whole man vs nature smothered with gravy. Hotter than Pawpaw's radiator in a fully loaded Buick Skylark on the last 10 miles of traffic headed to Dollywood, during the rod run, up hill, both ways.
I’m currently sitting in my truck sweating my ass off in 90 degree South Louisiana weather waiting to pick up someone and watching this, and you perfectly nailed it😂. And this is the coldest it’s gonna get for about 3 months
You're a national treasure Sir
The grandmas watching Perry Mason... Oh how i remember 😂
Omg don’t forget ticks!!❤oh and horse flies around the backyard pool!😆
"God just throws us in the oven at 400-degrees."
And that is why Yankees don't last in the South. All their cryin' about how hot it is....
Buck up, boy, you can always go back to Taxation Land. We're in this for the long haul.
Stepping outside the airport, my son said, “Embrace the sauna!” We walk the dog pretty early in the morning, but we have adapted to everything but the mosquitoes and wouldn’t move back for anything.
If they outlaw A/C, though, we’d have to make some adjustments!
"Hotter than a tweaker's copper stash"
Very accurate! Particularly that spit of rain. Just had that yesterday…
Having moved out of the south for the first time in my life, having 70 degree weather at the beginning of June is - divine - .
It's gonna get hotter later on, but I appreciate the warm up before almost dying to heat stroke
