Just love how everyone there agrees not giving people AC is terrible, it’s good to know it’s a universals constant that AC is useful as hell to everyone lol
I mean I graduated in 15 from an Ohio school. It had no ac minus like a few rooms and the oldest boiler system still working in the us. So that is fun. They just got a new school this year so it's better now but still.
be fair southern states the AC is the first thing fixed you want 90 to high 98 days full of classrooms of kids and teacher i been there the smell not fun mainly when it happens PE is rest and relax compared to normal stuff yeah they kept water bottles in stock that day for every class im used to it people look at me like im crazy wearing thick denim jeans and a leather jacket cause it rained that morning so it got worse after rain stop
Something that amuses me greatly with these skits is the necessity for a vast collection of sports team (and other state-specific) shirts and hats. Ben must have a closet dedicated to them all or something.
California schools also frequently lack AC, either because nobody bothers to fix it or because the building was built in the 1950s and they went with a fallout shelter instead.
@@Annie_Annie__ You have ONE lousy measles outbreak at Disneyland and they never let you forget it... Seriously, though, California is so populous and diverse that you can find just about any bizarre or stupid behavior here. We have Jefferson, which is basically our Texas...San Diego is our Florida...the Central Valley is our midwest...I get annoyed at Ben's characterization of us as a prissy uptight dork, but at least he put in the effort to go past the "hippie" and "surfer dude" stereotypes. Point is, we ABSOLUTELY have infectious disease outbreaks...because we have everything, whether we want it or not. (Also, please keep yelling at us to get vaccinated. We need all the help we can get.)
@@onbearfeet Nah, I think my perception comes from those communities around LA (and maybe around SF?) that had child vaccination rates in the teens and twenties and the few antivax doctors being based there. But there’s enclaves of low vaccination rates in every state. Especially in affluent areas. I’m from Texas and I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s several small areas of Dallas and Houston with similar rates. It’s just that before the pandemic, California (particularly SoCal) got all the attention.
Looks like yer healing up pretty good. These sketches are pretty elaborate plus you been doing stand up. I’d tell you to take it easy but I’m gonna guess you won’t. God Bless y’all.
Anyone who has ever spent 5 minutes in the south understands why we like air conditioning, and also how stupid tough our great grandparents must have been living here without it.
I have visited Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina in July. And August. I really liked going shopping indoors. Some people complained about the air being ‘dry’, I just thought it was nice to not be drinking the air. That told me “don’t put the desert kid in the jungle. Just don’t”
I was driving through Atlanta yesterday. It was raining and the temperature dropped to 74 degrees Fahrenheit. I decided to turn off my AC to get some "fresh air." Big mistake! It only took 2 minutes for my car to go from a refrigerator to a sauna. Learned my listen pretty quickly. AC is essential in the South for anything above 70 degrees Fahrenheit, just to get rid of the darn humidity!
@@theduke7539 Good luck in North Dakota! I was forced to move to the South by my job (Army) almost 30 years ago, after growing up in California and living in Europe for 2 years. I was bounced from Alabama to Arizona to Texas to Louisiana back to Arizona to Georgia and then to North Carolina. I finally decided to retire in Georgia. With the exception of Arizona, which is dry and hotter than I think hell would be, I've been stuck with the Southern humidity for 3 decades. On the West Coast, people are more active because they can actually go outside, don't have to drink their air, and don't have to worry about having a stroke from the heat. In the South, people are less active because they have to stay inside and soak up the AC in order to avoid becoming a causality. At least the houses in the South are cheaper, nicer, and bigger!
@@k4everut Very true, I grew up in Kentucky just up the road from Campbell, and I just left North Carolina near Bragg. Ive been all over the country, and honestly, I liked Arizona better than Kentucky weather wise. The air is so much easier to breath, and yeah its hot, but with a steady wind, i barely noticed. Hopefully Ill get to enjoy some winters again. my home town hasnt seen more than a couple inches of snow per year since like 2010
Ben, I think I remember you saying you have ADHD (I do too) so I thought you might appreciate this: I got a couple of subway sandwiches last night, I usually save one for the next day and put it in the fridge, when Florida said "subway" I was like "...hang on, was it last night I had Subw- OMG I DIDN'T PUT MY LEFTOVER ONE IN THE FRIDGE" It wasn't even like it was super hidden anywhere, it's beneath the table where I'm sitting!! But it was in a non-see-through bag so it was the old 'out of sight, out of mind' 🤦♀ So genuinely thanks heaps, you reminded me about my forgotten leftovers 🤣
The A/C bit has me rolling 🤣🤣🤣 I'm a teacher from South Florida, and my first year of teaching my classroom was freezing. When the school year ended I asked the office to turn up the temperature just a little and they said they would raised it 2 degrees. My room literally went from the North Pole to Hell's front lawn. I spent the next few months begging them to put it back. That was 4 years ago and I've been happy in my frozen tundra every since. Lesson Learned: Never look a gifted A/C in the mouth. You can always bundle up, but you can't strip down.
Damn straight... IF YOU'RE so cold bring a sweater, as I used to say IN THIS HOUSE and IF YOU'RE so hot take your jacket off, or switch to something cooler. YOU need to learn how to color coordinate yourself NOT TO ATTRACT THE HEAT! These things cost money AND you're not paying for either~YUP! THAT'S how I was raised... And I don't live in Florida. BUT I was raised by parents from the Greatest Generation. BTW we've never had a clothes dryer, yeah...no kidding. #BrooklynBornBaby #LongIslandRaised #GenXBIKERLady #WW2ArmyAirCorpsMPsKid
I was genuinely surprised when I found out that the teachers were going on strike in Ohio partly because they don’t have AC because in my town only 2 out of 7 schools have AC, that being a elementary school and a high school.
One of my aunts was a teacher in New York and started in one time that kids should have to go to school year-round so they don't forget anything, and she got quiet when I asked if she was really wanted to be in the school building in the summer with a full class of kids with no A/C. A lot of houses, apartments, and public buildings just do not have A/C up here still. My school would have all the windows open if it was warmer than like... 65 degrees, and I'd get sick from the diesel fumes of the buses lining up outside at the end of the day.
@@oxybrightdark8765 in all fairness to the district I live just south of Boston, but that isn’t to say late August to mid September and the entire month of June isn’t hot. Some days we get up to upper 90s
They are also striking because they haven’t been given a bonus they are supposed to get every two years in the past 15 years. They are also striking because the district is trying to make 40+ kid class sizes. I was a student in the district this is taking place in and my father taught in this district. There is much divide between parties.
I have an idea for a sketch: where I live in Canada we will play a game where you try to match every province (and sometimes territories) to a state, trying to get the states to do that would be fun
As someone from Ohio that went to schools without A/C or Heating and has a mother who is a teacher that has worked at schools w/o A/C, Lets Get These Teachers Some A/C!!!
When I went to school in Massachusetts (WAY back in the 70's and 80's) the "AC" was a 5' tall oscillating stand fan and the window shades mostly pulled down to keep the sun out. We learned to carry paper towels with our books to wipe down the desk and seat before each class. At least the heat mostly worked in the winter. If you were lucky enough to sit near the heating unit, which also put you closest to the wall of single-glazed windows.
As a teacher in school with 91 degrees outside an AC turned off inside (why do I need it if I can open a window early in the morning) I wonder how many degrees is there in Ohio? I tried to turn on the AC but my kids asked me not to. What AC gives is a sore throat and no one needs a soar throat in hot weather.
LOL, love the AC convo! Here in southern Arizona that's literally a life or death matter. And I guess with global warming, just when we start cooling off with monsoon, everyone else in the US discovers they don't know how to deal with REAL summer weather.
Can confirm, the rural parts of New York (especially most the North Country, Finger Lakes, parts of the Catskills and Adirondacks and the Southern Tier) can be as conservative as stereotypical Texas. The conservative areas of NYC Metro (yes that is very much a thing) is a story for another time.
This is wild. Let me start this off by saying I'm from Florida. My family went to Boston on vacation recently and at the tail end of it, the Orange Line had to be shut down. I just love how absolutely bonkers that coincidence is and that I, being from Florida, have some slight experience with that.

@@jennifercourtemanche9793 Honestly, that isn’t very shocking Agree with you on that one, stay on the sidewalks unless you wanna die by Yellowstone’s wildlife or wonders.
My old school in Ohio didn't have air conditioning until the 2000s when they remodeled all 5 schools. No shorts but girls could wear skirts and skorts. So my Sr. yr we all, boys n girls, went on strike. We all wore skirts n sat on the lawn. News came out n everything. Needless to say, the next year they changed their policy to allow shorts for all.
Very cool!! Bravo to each and every one of you! There's always power in numbers! In 1970 my Mom got the school board to allow girls to wear pants under their skirts and dresses because of the winter cold. I went dressed like that as I always had in upstate NY but in SOCAL no pants meant no pants. I was sent to the principal's office totally mortified. They called my Mom at work and sent me home! She lays into the school district supervisors and the rule was changed. Very soon after that girls were wearing jeans. Hip huggers and short shirts. Go Mom!💖
@@tiffanyhaddox7499 Since when has the government needed plausible deniability to deny anything? It's like selective amnesia when it works for them. "I don't remember knowing of having no knowledge of the possibility that there may have been something I knew about not knowing, you know?"
@@Drraagh Depends on if it’s election year. If it’s an election year they generally want some form of Plausible Deniability that their opponent can’t throw at them during the debate at just the right moment.
Don’t forget Washington in your teacher strike list! 400:1 student to counselor ratios because we can’t afford to hire more. But we could apparently afford to give the brand new superintendent a 27% raise…
I have been listening to a lot of horror podcasts recently, that the image of a severed foot was were my brain went to first. Great video like always! :]
Going to school with no ac is awful. I went to school in rural southern VA and only had AC in a handful of classrooms. Any classroom in a trailer had AC and the only other class I had with AC was one of my 6th grade teachers because she actually has a HEART ATTACK in the heat.
I grew up in Florida. My first day of school was in 1985, and I didn't see an air-conditioned classroom until 1995. The school year for most of Florida starts in our hotest and most humid month, August. Also for the first 3 months of the school year I had to walk home in the rain, or wait 15 minutes for the rain to stop and walk home in the steam, which is much worse.
When I was in middle school, 2000-2004, part of the building, which used to be the old high school, the first high school they had, had no central ac. One room did not have an ac window unit. We hated it! I still remember where 2 rooms with no ac on the same day just sucked all our energy that day. No ceiling fans either.
"Would you rather not know where he is at all times? Fair point" you hate having him around but the thought of not knowing where he is and what he's doing is worse.
Never thought I'd see my home state of Wyoming get so much air time :D (also I now have to question 90% of my social circle as to how NONE of them mentioned this foot/boot news)
The reference here is, in Florida every building has working central AC at all times of the year, or you don't go in that f***ing building, period Source: I'm from Orlando
When I was a kid upstate NY had no AC in school either. It was amazing, papers sticking to your arms and teachers too hot to teach so just got more busy work. Or just watched movies from the start of June. September could sometimes be just as hot.
Florida's reaction to the no AC thing is perfect. AC is the only thing that makes life here bearable, so much so that 1 of their 2 additions to the National Statuary Hall Collection is a statue of John Gorrie, one of the first advocates for the importance of interior cooling, and creator of a precursor to AC. (The National Statuary Hall Collection is a set of 2 statues from each state showcasing important people in their history, on display throughout the Congress building)
Great as always ben! also question are you considering doing more countries at the table if so I recommend Britain France and maybe Mexico since they are parents to loads of state's also I consider the states that used to be part of Mexico to be Mexico's kids and Spain to be the grandad also also I know Florida alaska and Hawaii have different parents I meant in general.
My home town has three elementary schools, a middle school, a high school, and an alternative education school. Only two of them have a/c, and one of them is only in one building. The issue with adding a/c is that these buildings are old and can't really be retrofitted efficiently, plus the power draw required. Buildings one hundred years old often have to choose between computers and a/c. Heck, even the 20 year old middle school was constantly tripping breakers because too many things were plugged in at once (computers, copiers, etc).
I go to a public Florida High School and most of my classes don’t have working AC. Teachers have to buy their own fans and even those don’t work half the time. SOS
Lol. Very few schools in Ohio have AC. It sucks. Some schools only have it in rooms where the teacher purchased window units out of their own money and had them installed due to medical reasons, otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to do it at all.
Before hurricane Ian hit at Florida, my school lost AC for the entire day. It was a nightmare, people weren’t able to learn anything. Although luckily the portables had AC, it was the one break I got to chill
As someone who spent the majority of my formative years in Columbus Public Schools, the days we missed due it being too hot was almost always equal to the days missed due to it being too cold.
I grew up in a school with no air conditioning. There was an opportunity to install an A/C unit about a decade ago now, but the school district was unable to pass a levy because the richest family in the district ran a slander campaign saying the school was wasting money, as if it had anything to do with the vote. At one point, a clock MELTED in the Study hall room over summer break.
the orange line CAUGHT ON FIRE! we would have kept on riding it, but they shut it down FOR A MONTH! and now I have to deal with idiots on the mass pike going the speed limit. these are not trivial circumstances
The other lines loose wheels, derail, or have mental breakdowns in the tunnel on a regular basis, that's just how it is. Now everyone's driving, and if I have to deal with one more set of cars going the exact same speed across all four lanes of I-95 cause some idiots don't know the rules of the road, I'm gonna lose it. Left lane's for speeding motherfuckers, move faster
I’ve been in multiple school districts in upstate NY and they only have AC in the library, auditorium, music rooms and computer lab. Kids are back to school and temps are still in the 80s-90s and the classrooms don’t have fans either
I didn’t have AC in my elementary or middle school, and it was absolutely miserable. My High school on the other hand was extremely weird because it had AC but for some reason every room was either boiling or freezing and there was no in between.
As soon as everyone in the South heard that they were striking because they didn't have AC support instantly shifted to the teacher's side.
Over here in WA, all the teachers in the city of Kent are on strike. I think others will follow soon
As a Floridian sadist.. .that's a new level of torture!
I am anti union but I would join their picket in a heartbeat
Yeah it's hot down here if you don't get air conditioning we're gonna hate you because it's hot enough outside.
The no AC is one where we will all ban together no matter how much we disagree with each other.
Just love how everyone there agrees not giving people AC is terrible, it’s good to know it’s a universals constant that AC is useful as hell to everyone lol
I mean it is the US. it's boiling hot during the summer so you fucking better have AC.
Hafe of Europe rn 😳

Stop! Collaborate and listen. Ice is back with a brand new invention.
@@dr.floridamanphd Dang it.
If it helps you can always listen to "Dem Bones" by Alice in Chains? It's better than the other one at least.
Same, coming from a Wyomingite.

@@LazyNVersions Wyoming is real?? (Lol, kidding!)
Lmao That Slide Has Been Around For Decades. Barely anyone ever got thrown high enough to hurt and no one got thrown like... well... that.
My old school in Ohio didn't have air conditioning until the 2000s when they remodeled all 5 schools. No shorts but girls could wear skirts and skorts. So my Sr. yr we all, boys n girls, went on strike. We all wore skirts n sat on the lawn. News came out n everything. Needless to say, the next year they changed their policy to allow shorts for all.
Good. I hate skorts
Very cool!! Bravo to each and every one of you! There's always power in numbers! In 1970 my Mom got the school board to allow girls to wear pants under their skirts and dresses because of the winter cold. I went dressed like that as I always had in upstate NY but in SOCAL no pants meant no pants. I was sent to the principal's office totally mortified. They called my Mom at work and sent me home! She lays into the school district supervisors and the rule was changed. Very soon after that girls were wearing jeans. Hip huggers and short shirts. Go Mom!💖
"And the bulls are on parade" lol another Tuesday in FL.
Ben, please 🙏 never never stop. U keep getting better and better. Watched it 3 times, n can't stop laughing 😆 🤣
I love how Florida is a perpetual juvenile delinquent. Great job making reality funny, makes me proud to be from Florida!
WY and WA should compare dismembered feet in boots stories. We've had a lot wash up on the shores.
i was waiting for Washington to jump in
Add BC to that list.
Loved when NJ jumped in with the Action Park reference
1:10 "would you rather not know where he is" the first time the gov has any common sense.
Except now the Government has no plausible deniability about what Florida is doing. 😈
@@tiffanyhaddox7499 Since when has the government needed plausible deniability to deny anything? It's like selective amnesia when it works for them. "I don't remember knowing of having no knowledge of the possibility that there may have been something I knew about not knowing, you know?"
@@Drraagh Depends on if it’s election year. If it’s an election year they generally want some form of Plausible Deniability that their opponent can’t throw at them during the debate at just the right moment.
I call BS. Florida has DEFINITELY heard of "lines".
Well in Florida because of the water shelf level they can't have a subway, a light rail Definitely but no subway
Subways lines weren't exactly what Robert was referencing in saying Fl has heard of "Lines".
@@danielleporter1829 oh Coca-Cola 😂
Has Florida or are you thinking Disney? Cause that’s a whole other ballgame from what I’ve heard.
@@tiffanyhaddox7499 I was referring to cocaine.
Don’t forget Washington in your teacher strike list! 400:1 student to counselor ratios because we can’t afford to hire more. But we could apparently afford to give the brand new superintendent a 27% raise…
Thats is beyond insane
That's quite a large raise
Florida's Statue in the Capital Building is the man who Invented Air Condition, that's how much we love it and how seriously we take it.
I now want to see a Subway on a subway thanks to Florida. 😅
I grew up on Long Island, no AC for us, just opened emergency windows to get more air in.
We also went to school until the last week in June
"Would you rather not know where he is at all times?" 😂
"There's a snake in my boot" man the references
I have been listening to a lot of horror podcasts recently, that the image of a severed foot was were my brain went to first.
Great video like always! :]
So I wasn’t the only one who immediately thought that
My Mum is a retired cop so my brain immediately went to the severed foot image. 🦶
@@emberandfriendsanimations2454 My Mum is a retired cop so my brain immediately went to the severed foot image. 🦶
I remember hearing about the washed up feet in someplace. So eh
@@lillyglee3354 That would be in Seattle Washington.
Going to school with no ac is awful. I went to school in rural southern VA and only had AC in a handful of classrooms. Any classroom in a trailer had AC and the only other class I had with AC was one of my 6th grade teachers because she actually has a HEART ATTACK in the heat.
Fantastic Ben. The fact schools still do not have AC in Columbus just blows my mind given that it is 2022
I grew up in Florida. My first day of school was in 1985, and I didn't see an air-conditioned classroom until 1995. The school year for most of Florida starts in our hotest and most humid month, August.
Also for the first 3 months of the school year I had to walk home in the rain, or wait 15 minutes for the rain to stop and walk home in the steam, which is much worse.
It hurts to watch that Texas Logic. Still thrilled to see a video though! I hope you're healing well from the surgery!
As a Michigander, I had to stop the video to laugh my butt off at "we only tried to launch the kids from Ohio" 🤣🤣🤣
That Rage Against the Machine reference didn’t go unnoticed
So glad I wasn't the only one who noticed it.
As someone from Plattsburgh, NY, I honestly appreciated the upstate comment!
Florida had disbelief is unbelievable for a good few seconds. Louie and Wyoming got me in stitches 😂
You just keep hitting the nail on the head with these. I LOVE them!! You're brilliant!!
Ah the memories of (Class) Action Park…if I could actually remember them.
When I was in middle school, 2000-2004, part of the building, which used to be the old high school, the first high school they had, had no central ac. One room did not have an ac window unit. We hated it! I still remember where 2 rooms with no ac on the same day just sucked all our energy that day. No ceiling fans either.
Literally just talked about the Orange line being shut down yesterday with my best friend while planning our route to the MCR concert next Thursday
"Because your busses are part submarine" is THE funniest way I've heard a subway described. 😂
"Would you rather not know where he is at all times? Fair point" you hate having him around but the thought of not knowing where he is and what he's doing is worse.
No I seriously LOVE this! Please keep the table news going.
I love the longer form! It’s crazy to me how you can make it seem like you’re having a natural convo
I appreciate all the work that goes into this. Very funny and interesting stuff.
I live in FL and the AC was broken in my school for 2 days and it was in August so it was really, really hot
Never thought I'd see my home state of Wyoming get so much air time :D (also I now have to question 90% of my social circle as to how NONE of them mentioned this foot/boot news)
I love your videos Ben! They are always really entertaining!
Howdy
A great video as always!
I absolutely love your videos. Please don't ever stop.
Not only was the orange line down but it was also on fire : )
As someone who wanted to do an English major, but swapped to History as the 11th hour, that Crucible reference came out of nowhere.
*AND I LOVED IT.*
I never thought I'd hear Florida be offended by what another state did
The reference here is, in Florida every building has working central AC at all times of the year, or you don't go in that f***ing building, period
Source: I'm from Orlando
When I was a kid upstate NY had no AC in school either. It was amazing, papers sticking to your arms and teachers too hot to teach so just got more busy work. Or just watched movies from the start of June. September could sometimes be just as hot.
Florida's reaction to the no AC thing is perfect.
AC is the only thing that makes life here bearable, so much so that 1 of their 2 additions to the National Statuary Hall Collection is a statue of John Gorrie, one of the first advocates for the importance of interior cooling, and creator of a precursor to AC.
(The National Statuary Hall Collection is a set of 2 statues from each state showcasing important people in their history, on display throughout the Congress building)
I got what he meant by "a foot in a boot" the first time....that makes me smarter than DC right?
The accuracy of this guy is crazy. The action park reference was spot on, made my day.
From Alaska so snow and wet socks for most of autumn, all of winter, and most of spring. During the summer mud.
Great as always ben! also question are you considering doing more countries at the table if so I recommend Britain France and maybe Mexico since they are parents to loads of state's also I consider the states that used to be part of Mexico to be Mexico's kids and Spain to be the grandad also also I know Florida alaska and Hawaii have different parents I meant in general.
Spain is our daddy here in FL. They were the first to colonize us.
That’s why the Spanish colonial style architecture is so popular here.
@@dr.floridamanphd ya I know.
Spain and France shared custody of Louisiana for a while. France gave Loui to Spain to keep it away from England during the Napoleonic Wars.
@@lilykep Oh really I didn't know that?
@@EpicGamer-xh4yx I'm from Louisiana and we take a semester of Louisiana history.
Edit: Seven Years War not Napoleonic Wars my bad.
I live in Ohio and my school just got air conditioning in the rooms this year... Everyone is too cold.
As a Canadian, only like, 3 rooms had AC but September and June were ROUGH
Love how NY's polio problem is TX's fault
Pfft, glad to see more of Wyoming, this made me laugh and I needed it so thank you a bunch
ACTION PARK! Holy hell, I never thought I'd see that come up here. 😂
My home town has three elementary schools, a middle school, a high school, and an alternative education school. Only two of them have a/c, and one of them is only in one building. The issue with adding a/c is that these buildings are old and can't really be retrofitted efficiently, plus the power draw required. Buildings one hundred years old often have to choose between computers and a/c.
Heck, even the 20 year old middle school was constantly tripping breakers because too many things were plugged in at once (computers, copiers, etc).
I go to a public Florida High School and most of my classes don’t have working AC. Teachers have to buy their own fans and even those don’t work half the time. SOS
1:21 and I never thought I’d see the return of New Jersey 😂
We in New Hampshire don’t got air conditioning either, just heating for the winter
Atleast we know Florida has standards
Lol. Very few schools in Ohio have AC. It sucks.
Some schools only have it in rooms where the teacher purchased window units out of their own money and had them installed due to medical reasons, otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to do it at all.
Before hurricane Ian hit at Florida, my school lost AC for the entire day. It was a nightmare, people weren’t able to learn anything. Although luckily the portables had AC, it was the one break I got to chill
Half my school had AC. That was after we built the new side. IL is a special place
As someone who spent the majority of my formative years in Columbus Public Schools, the days we missed due it being too hot was almost always equal to the days missed due to it being too cold.
I grew up in a school with no air conditioning. There was an opportunity to install an A/C unit about a decade ago now, but the school district was unable to pass a levy because the richest family in the district ran a slander campaign saying the school was wasting money, as if it had anything to do with the vote. At one point, a clock MELTED in the Study hall room over summer break.
I love how as soon as Ohio speaks, everyone is paying attention 😂
the orange line CAUGHT ON FIRE! we would have kept on riding it, but they shut it down FOR A MONTH! and now I have to deal with idiots on the mass pike going the speed limit. these are not trivial circumstances
The other lines loose wheels, derail, or have mental breakdowns in the tunnel on a regular basis, that's just how it is. Now everyone's driving, and if I have to deal with one more set of cars going the exact same speed across all four lanes of I-95 cause some idiots don't know the rules of the road, I'm gonna lose it. Left lane's for speeding motherfuckers, move faster
The mention of Action Park just reminds me of the ER doctors nickname for the place: Class Action Park.
Insinuating that Florida actually *read* and what he chose was *the Crucible.*
I’ve been in multiple school districts in upstate NY and they only have AC in the library, auditorium, music rooms and computer lab. Kids are back to school and temps are still in the 80s-90s and the classrooms don’t have fans either
I didn’t have AC in my elementary or middle school, and it was absolutely miserable. My High school on the other hand was extremely weird because it had AC but for some reason every room was either boiling or freezing and there was no in between.
