"30°C is hot" - laughs in Texan
Texas is Hell though. Anyone who's been there understands this. From the heat to the guns to the people, it's far and away the least desirable or interesting place I've been to. Austin wasn't terrible though.
Austin is the common "island of sanity" that happens with American cities. Is it enough to say in Texas... Not for me.
Don't Texans just stay in air-conditioned buildings and vehicles all the time? I just saw a YouTube video where a guy in Texas was complaining that his air conditioning setup wouldn't get the temperature below 76°F, which I found odd since I set the thermostat on my AC to 26°C (which is nearly 79°F.)
Yeah that's absolutely a thing all over warm weather states in America. It drives me crazy that I try to acclimate to the higher heat and just end up inside with 68° air conditioner settings. Absolutely freezing my ass off. But the reality is that is more middle/ upper class living. If you're doing manual labor or living in poverty, you know what the heat is actually like.
