A college teacher I used to work with used to to tell her students who complained about the temperature "if you'd dress to learn instead of to catch the eye of a man, you wouldn't be cold".

 

Anyhow, I've worked in offices where I've had to wear a sweater even in summer (I kept one in my office regularly).  My current office is usually too warm in summer, though, and often humid.  I had a supervisor who was sick every winter because the air blower was situated over his desk.

 

The real reason wasn't "men" or "sexism" but "poor ventilation planning" and/or "poor HVAC" (the current building I'm in has air conditioning that - based on how often it breaks down - I swear is held together by old chewing gum and hope).

I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

Wow...the horrors of having to throw on a sweater...

 

It's pretty ridiculous.  If you're cold, you can always put something more on.  If you're too hot, you're basically SOL.

 

Besides, there's a reason computer labs are always kept cold (I used to have to wear my coat when in the computer lab back in college, and I'm not particularly susceptible to cold), and most offices are full of computers nowadays...

this is why nobody should ever take them seriously.

The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder.

What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past?

 

Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born!


We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did.

She was old and opinionated, not really evil.
