They use electric space heaters when it gets this cold.
These are worse than lithium batteries.
However, we should now have problems with the electricity from Quebec. They can't take the load.
Elsewhere the natgas is having problems.
This Arctic spill is fine, but the next one will be a doozy!
ps well, at least trumpy isn't talking about invasion. Their Naxi winter uniforms are ready yet. Hope they have warm socks!
Really? I had two phones go like this, and after they melt, you can't tell I hit them with a 10 pound hammer. No headlines for me.
These have all the power of the 'Burning Schoolhouse' fireworks of yesteryear. Probably leftied out these days. My kids used to make paper cutouts of their teachers to put into it, to stick out the windows, screaming for help. Not politically correct.
Every high school science class should demonstrate this, and how to operate one of those little spray fire extinguishers you get at Costco. Doesn't need anything more. Did this person charge the phone in their bed? Were they asleep? Do they smoke in bed?
Really, this is a million to one odds. However, over a city, my fire buddy tells me this is an every day event. Smoking in bed used to be 10 times worse.
Everybody should go outside, use the 10 pound hammer, and scream phoney outrage on X. Maybe the media will pick it up.
ps I got a letter! From Chumpchange
Dear Phoneblowerupper, I want to make a campaign about this, and earn lots of money through my phoney charity. How do I do it?
Dear Chumpchange, it's easy. Get Artie slop to make a poster with a sweenygirl in bed (sex sells!). Have her looking as sleepy-eyed as a sweeny with a plugged in phone, and a candle magically balancing on the pillow beside her. Go with with sexy title "You wouldn't take a lit candle to bed, would you?" implying she would take anybody to bed.
Go to the scene with under-aged high school girls doing the phone experiment. Use the 10 pound hammer with a 50 pound tap, so just the upper rim hits the phone with a nice smile imprint. Glass-back are the best! Have them all screaming when it blows, and have the sensible girl spray it with a fire extinguisher, while rolling her eyes. This is fine high school drama film making at its best.
Form a company and sell it to dozy cities that order paper-weight lrts, and balloon water mains. Skim off the profits and put them in Qatar, where trumpy hides his money. It's all good!
My outside thermometer has died. I need some lithium batteries for it. There are no words for this, since we know that words are useless against the Forces of Warminess.
We've got another High Clipper, again and again. We know the snow that these things can bring.
I can see the beginning of another cold spill for Europe. About time they shared the cold.
The black is coming down. Still some hope for 20 below in Texas, or maybe the next spill.
As always the Great Factory of Cold is gathering the raw material of heat energy to turn into ingots of pure silver cold. How are your heat pumps working? The Arctic's are doing fine.
Hard to tell, but the clipper is strong. The Arctic may now be in the continuous mode, rather than batch processing. It's what I expected. In the video you don't really see a Europe breakout, darn.
Again, no amount of cold can break the Warmie Religious Belief, because heresy is death for them.
