My air conditioner broke today

And its fucking hot out. All the local stores are already closed and I need to wait till tomorrow to go buy a new AC unit. It's so bad I'm thinking about renting an hotel for the night.

Has anyone ever been in this situation before.

Oh yeah over here.
Three years ago I used to live in Saudi Arabia and something went wrong with the electricity distributed that all ACs in the apartment stopped working

God dammit. It was the worst day I've ever witnessed.
You really don't know or can't even imagine how high the temp goes over there.
Spent the whole night in sweat and literally couldn't stay indoors that I took my dads car keys and sat in it for 4 hours in the ac alone; )

Actually. I do understand. I'm in Dubai.

Its almost 5 am here and still 34 degrees.
Fuck me. The store opens in a few hours. I'll go get one then but it sure does feel better knowing others have been in this situation.

I don't have a fucking air conditioner >_< now suffer with the rest of us.

First world problems lol

Never too late to hire someone to fan you

Oh yes, and it was about 90 in Chicago the other day when it was out. Luckily we got it fixed the next day.

I was in Egypt one day and my air conditioner didn't work for 3 days...it was like 45C outside

Sorry mate, checked into the Warwick hotel, it was that bad. If you were local I'd invite you to come hang out but I don't think you are.

one wet facecloth for the neck, one on eech shin - replace every 20 min. Should help a bit

At least you have an air conditioner. I have nothing, even a broken one Cheesy

So what? Go to shop buy a new one and replace it.

Its very fucking hot where I live, and its always in these times June,July,August, and maybe the start of September.

Damn I hate summer so much. I mean i like to go out to chill in the sun , but when I come home and still it's fucking hot, and I cant sleep because I sweat all night.

That is just horrible...

I was going to suggest a wet sheet and a fan in your room (and something Ice Cold to drink) but I see you have checked into a hotel. Stay cool buddy!

Just to update. I eneded up getting a new AC unit the follow afternoon and I'm now sitting at my desk, cool as can be.
I'm sorry to the people with an AC unit. I give you guys credit, I don't think I can live without one.

No I have not but I do believe even in Africa people have air conditioners. Not all of them but some do.

Africans are generally used to a hot climate, but a few have air conditioners. They mostly just open the windows and use fans.

And that's enough to cool them off?

well i don't think that you should go to hotel, you can just open all windows and it will be good for that night, you will have good sleep too
