I can see why most Americans living in places with brutal summers have AC, nothing wrong with that, it was invented for a reason of course

Unfortunately they’ve gotten worse too. When growing up the heat of the day peaked in the afternoon, unfortunately now it actually can keep getting hotter after 5pm.

[Too Old]

Lyrics from a 1981 song by Fred Wedlock, a British folk singer.

When you score with a chick in a disco bar
take her home in your hairy little car

Then you find you went to school with her Ma and PA
you're the oldest swinger in town

When you won't look in a mirror in the light of day
swear you dyed it when your hair turns grey

When you zip up your Wranglers and your belly's in the way
you're the oldest swinger in town

Here you come and there you go
wire wheel-spokes and a stereo

But the engine's clapped and the driver also
is the oldest swinger in town

When your barber takes a little less time each week
the kids don't understand a word you speak

When you walk into a disco and they offer you a seat
you're the oldest swinger in town

You prefer a pint of mild to Bacardi and coke
the sounds are too loud and there's too much smoke

You'd like another dance but you're scared you'll have a stroke
you're the oldest swinger in town

Here you come with your chest all bare
a little gold ingot and a lot of gold hair

Like the disco king meets Yogi bear
you're the oldest swinger in town

When you're feeling as stiff as a skinhead's boot
rub on Vick where you used to splash brut

And the latest punk fashion is your wedding suit
you're the oldest swinger in town

When you have to go shopping for your sex appeal
Travolta shades and nine-inch heels

You say a man is just as old as the woman he feels
you're the oldest swinger in town

Here you come with your lips closed tight
you never smile you know it wouldn't look right

'Cause your dentures glow in ultra-violet light
you're the oldest swinger in town
oldest swinger in town

And you look so mean 'cause your pants are too tight
you're the oldest swinger in town

And it takes you all night to do what you used to do all night
you're the oldest swinger in town...

I sleep in an attic bedroom and with the current summer (30-38c) my bedroom is a comfy 32c most nights. Sticking to the mattress, drowning in sweat.
I do sleep quite well though despite the heat.

The only two places we have air conditioning is at work and in the car.

One more reason why I love my place buddy. 30-32°C in summer, 10-15°C in winter and ACs everywhere. I use it everyday to sleep even in winter lol

Yet you frequently come over to my country, there must be something good here

[Amochosto]

When your work out three times a week for seven years to be able to bench press the weight you hit the first time you ever tried to bench press.

Neither can I, fall and winter are my favourite months, cold and wet.

I might be an old man in a young body

Not super close to me but if you let me know in advance then I can definitely work something out would love to grab a beer with you

I get up several times a night.... In my younger times that statement would have been bragging, but now it relates to me having to go to the bathroom to pee.

Drinking at home with some music sounds better than going out on a friday night.

That's not getting old, That's called getting sensible. Drinks at a reasonable price and music selections to my taste? Wish I'd 'gotten old' 25 years ago.
