The cynical climate change jokes come out pretty much every season. Every time the weather deviates out of our 69-72 degree comfort zone, we’re compelled to make the comment about how we can’t wait for global warming, or: ‘I guess global warming isn’t happening after all, or: ‘Man, I guess global warming is finally taking over…’ As far as jokes go, it’s the gift that keeps on giving. IT’S FUNNY EVERY SINGLE TIME!
Regarding the possibility of global warming, most people are cautiously excited. Aside from all the doom and gloom, the weather heating up by a few degrees doesn’t sound that bad. Conceptually at least. BECAUSE WINTER BLOWS!
But apparently some people prefer it cold
It’s a strange phenomenon. There are some people out there that say they would rather things go the other direction.
‘I just sweat, the second I go outside,’ they say.
‘I just hate feeling so sticky all the time. I always feel like I need a shower,’ they say.
They say they would actually prefer an endless winter to a long hot summer. They say they would prefer the next ice age to a tropical meltdown!
You know what, though? THEY ARE WRONG!
(Unless they live in Death Valley. It’s too hot there for people. But, that’s why they call it Death Valley. The name itself was a clear warning that THEY OBVIOUSLY MISSED!)
They might think it’s funny to joke about. In reality they are either lying, trying to sound cool (zing!), fooling themselves, or are simply unaware of the facts. In any case, they obviously haven’t thought things through.
Why? Because if climate change triggers another ice age, we’ll pretty much all be dead. Yeah, you might not have to deal with sweating through your linen sun-dress, BUT YOU WON’T HAVE ANY FOOD! The seal meat and beluga fat will RUN OUT VERY FAST!
And that is worse.
Think about it. Make the right choice. THIS IS NOT A JOKING MATTER!
