I use to do HVAC and I can tell you a lot of people do get dumber when their a/c breaks during the hot summer days.

"Hold my beer and watch this" is a temperature independent manifestation of a preexisting condition.

Not something caused by the failure of an air conditioner.

Makes sense. Your brain is basically a CPU and radiates heat when used. If it is already warm outside, your brain has to reduce processor throughput or risk overheating.

Cool-thinking Yankees also won the War of the Rebellion. The Northernmost General of the CSA was Lee. He could see the White Hose from his porch.

With many states dealing with record-high temperatures and massive heat waves, many people are probably sick of summer already.

Speak for yourself.

After the winter and non-spring we had, I am enjoying every minute of this and spending as much time outdoors as possible.

I work in a fairly hazardous industry in the deep south. Our safety stats could have saved these people a lot of time. They may not necessarily get dumber, but they get tired and distracted.Our chart showed the same thing every year; flat line from Jan to May, then increase every month from May to August, then a gradual decline for the rest of the year.

True. The shootings in Chicago go up during the summer as opposed to the winter when people stay inside.

It’s 95 and I just this minute turned on the A/C. Yeah, yeah, don’t tell me about the energy used to cool it down. We have furbabies that come and go constantly and one is old so would pee on the carpet even more if the door was closed.

Not just heat, but also women tend to lower the IQ of men.

Good grief the usually 85 or,lower iq kmobs get even dumber in the heat.

No wonder they riot in the summers. Frigging idiots.

Also good most legislatures have summer breaks.

People actually get dumber doing studies that are dumb to begin with.
