No they don’t at all. To them they truly are so dense to think these are just flukes happening one after the other. I heard someone say “It was hotter in the 70s” like it’s some weird boomer pride thing, like walking uphill both ways.

Oh and by the way no it fucking wasn’t. It was literally not hotter in the 70s, we’ve broken so many records since then, it’s just how you remember it.

Well, actually, they were living in Florida in the 70s, and now they live in Michigan, so for them, it was hotter in the 70s.

Logic.

Just in the 70s I remember sunscreen being less of a thing. My Boomer parents would just throw us outside and let us get burned.
