Caption read: "OMG. Its hotter than the sun today! FML!"

Part of my Facebook launched, anti-Facebook campaign. I cant even tell you how many real pictures of this nature I have seen in the past two days. Its almost as if they have to use their car thermometer to convince people, rather than asking them to walk outside. "Its for real, because my car says so yo! Gas is down, because my car says so yo! 'Its not hot.' But my car says it is...so it is, yo"

It was well received, just thought I'd share, enjoy.

I posted up a pic of my car's Driver Information Center showing an outside temp of 127...

Whoever thought it was a good idea to measure the ambient temp 8" off the ground is probably not the brightest engineer in the shop.

That is understandable in AZ. Im seeing things like, "90 at 10:30 AM!" and "It never dropped below 82 last night!". People dont understand that in certain parts of the world/country this is an acceptable temp.

I lived in NJ back in the early 90's and remember there was a wedding one summer where it got to 105. That, in NJ, was craziness. Hottest day in the last few years on the day of an outdoor wedding. Then that winter was one of the worst in years too (1993 I think).

This is why we have AC down here. My balls are cool and dry. Don't believe me? Just give them a little squeeze, you'll see.
