[Sava]

i think imran was having some gender identity issues

he didn't reveal anything to me in confidence, but there were some sudden changes that took me aback

but, don't wanna make things tougher by being a rumor mill

Sava might be projecting

(Someone should remind Imran he's a Christian now.)

Ouch. Harsh!

[Lonestar]

It's way too warm for the 23/24th of December.

If there was a Global Warming denier in front of me right now I'd nut-punch them.

[Ben Kenobl]

I'm afraid to say that these are the Earth's natural weather cycles. These aren't even record temperatures, which proves my point.

Why not rejoice in the fact that the Lord has seen fit to reward us with warm weather this Christmas?

[Egbert]

Do you have any idea how offensive that is? I mean, seriously, "You People?"

It is offensive. "You people" should be "y'all".

And then the thread could descend into a huge argument about whether the correct term is "y'all" or "ya'll".

Thank you braindead for this important communication. Let us both spread the word on the Texanization of this forum, y'all.

We must protect the rights of Texan double logins.

I'll admit Texas ain't big enough for both me and Slowwhand, but I don't think we should be closing his account simply for that as he's my friend.

[Egbert]

Don't forget DocFeelGood and SpacedCowboy. Two more Texan Polytubbies.

A Fitting End for the Hottest Year on Record

With some help from El Niño, 2015 will almost certainly finish out its run as the hottest year on record with temperatures on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day predicted to be well above average across much of the United States.

AccuWeather is forecasting “record setting warmth up and down the entire Eastern Seaboard from Florida to Maine” on Thursday. It is not expected that New York and the rest of the East Coast will cool down before the end of the year. And the warmth and humidity are expected to cause storms, flooding and the potential for isolated tornadoes in the Midwest and South.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has announced that last month was the warmest November on record, and the seventh month in a row to break a global temperature record. The global average temperature from January to November was the highest recorded since 1880, when the data was first tracked. That broke the record for the hottest year ever recorded, set in 2014. The temperature from January to November was 0.25 degrees warmer than the same period last year.

Thirteen of the fourteen hottest years in memory have been recorded in the 21st century, a development that goes hand-in-hand with the expected effects of climate change. An overwhelming majority of scientists believe that global warming is being caused by human activities.

In a response to an emailed question, the climate activist Bill McKibben compared the rising temperatures to “waking up in the first reel of a dystopian science fiction film.”

“We’re living through history, and not of a good kind,” he said. “2015 didn’t just break the global temperature record — it crushed it. Think of the energy needed to raise the temperature of something as large as our planet by this much this fast.”

I know you're just a DL, but just wanted to post this

[regexcellent]

We're having record weather here. It's fantastic. I just turned my AC on. **** yeah!

This is due to El Nino more than anything, which is ludicrously strong this year.

[DaShi]

It's amusing that some people think that El Nino is not in anyway connected to Global Warming. I guess deniers will latch on to anything. "It's not Global Warming, it's just the natural warming of the global due to man-made processes. Educate yourself!"

[giblets]

One of their favorite talking points in recent years has been claiming there hasn't been any warming since 1998, another el nino year.
