     @morachbeag one time I met a taxi driver in Dubai who told me very seriously that British people had access to a special technology that lets them decide to sit on an open top bus in 48C and still be happy

     @skinnylatte @morachbeag LMAO

     For some reason, I went to these outdoor electric IR heaters that I once experienced on a large balcony at a corporate office in Seattle.

     I think maybe they used a similar technology to keep the open tops of those buses warm.
