    The more used to you get to that crap the less human you become.

        it is particulalry excrusiating because there's so much humidity in countries like Belgium. so it's either an airconditioner or going to the conservatoire gardens and be eaten alive by musquitos. or a airconditioned library. if you take fans you'll have to put them on maximum mode to have any effect so you'll loose your study time trying to keep your papers down

          Splash your naked body with eau de cologne and then get birched by succulent bronzed tattooed loveboys.


          Alternatively, wear cotton next to your skin, loose clothing only, and carry a spritzer with a solution of rosewater or a citronella based spray, and every so often give yourself a refreshing facial. Of course you may find bees and wasps dying to consume your face, but what's life without a little excitement ?

                If he were Greek, he could have an Attic hangout instead of a basement one.

                  Less clothes

                  Also, make sure that the Belgian old people don't die from the heat. France was hit by a hitwave two years ago, and tens of thousands of old people died as a result of insufficient preparation (no air conditioning, no information about the necessity to rehydrate often). Hopefully, you won't have the same ****-up.

                    That's a bad thing? We need more of them to die, good for demographics.
                    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                        We have a similar climate on the oceanic arc of Europe (Britanny, Cornwall, Ireland...). And Britanny was actually the French region that suffered the most from the heatwave, because it was the least prepared for warm climate.

                            When it gets hot here the fog will usually come in and cool things off. 90 down to 60 in 10 minutes.

                            Zkrib, I hear that last winter Cali got all our rain.
