Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I am currently in North Carolina and while I will acknowledge it is hot, and the humidity doesn't help, it isn't particularly irritating. It's like a hug from the air. I've been to New Orleans at the end of summer when it's supposedly bad but I enjoyed it. It almost makes the heat a little bit more bearable because there is something to work with?

I'm with you OP. I live in New England which admittedly doesn't have terrible humidity but whenever I go to Vegas there's always some local that that latches on to a humidity argument. We get to talking about how hot Vegas is vs New England and they without fail always say "oh but you have to deal with all that humidity, we've got a nice dry heat." It's like they don't understand how fucking insane that sounds, 115F does not feel better that 60-80% humidity at 80F unless you're a damn lizard.
