Where I used to work, the servers that run the entire store were in our office and the a/c was not adequate. My coworker and I had tried everything, but we would hear from the HO “The readout says it’s blowing sixty degrees in there”

At one point, my coworker screamed at someone “Look! You have two sweatyboobied women working in here!! We can’t take it!!!”

That and an email to a higher manager? Suddenly a new a/c.

Yeah, I had a manager once for whom the idea of boobies often led to lowering the AC. He didn’t agree with the conventional wisdom that it’s rude to point.

Incidentally, this can also be worded as “It’s so hot, yo daddy took the bag off yo mamma’s head,” thus acheiving double points for the rare “it’s so hot/yo mamma” joke perfecta.

That was Dave Barry, trying to buy an air conditioner (one of his best lines).

Also: It’s hotter than a snake’s ass in a wheel rut. (Williams channeling Walter Cronkite)

It was _so hot_… I saw a dog chasing a cat, and they were both on fire.

It’s so hot, the weatherman will tell you  
A record’s been made.  
It’s so hot, a coat of tan  
Will cover your face in the shade.

It’s so hot, the coldest maiden  
Feels just as warm as a bride.  
It’s so hot, a chicken laid an egg on the street  
And it fried.

– Irving Berlin, “Heat Wave”

My dad was a child in the '30s and '40s. He told me he remembered one day it was _so hot_…

A farmer was plowing his field with a mule-drawn plow. The field next to him had been planted with corn. It was so hot the corn started popping! Well, this popped corn was flying all over the place including onto the farmer and his mule. The mule saw all of this popcorn falling down on him, thought it was snowing, and lay down and froze to death!

Now that’s freakin’ hot.
