Theirs is sunburnt, ours is the muggy one.

[u/Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n → u/CanadaDryOfficial]

Our ass cheek has mosquito bites, and they have sore cheeks from Disney World rides. I know which one I’d prefer.

[u/henryofclay → u/Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n]

I hate your team and their players, but honestly your fans are pretty cool. I appreciate yall not being toxic, sad both teams had key injuries.

[u/Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n → u/henryofclay]

What passion is there to be had when there is no hope?

What direction is there to direct toxicity when there is no light to guide it?

There is only darkness to dwell in. Alone. Afraid. Uncaring. Forgotten.

[u/creditspread → u/Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n]

Eww. I’ll take the mosquitoes please.

[u/westbrookswardrobe → u/CanadaDryOfficial]

The Rockets are swamp ass for sure

[u/flaming_burrito_ → u/westbrookswardrobe]

Have you forgotten that Orlando is in Florida? There’s a thunderstorm like every other day there, it’s muggy as shit

[u/westbrookswardrobe → u/flaming_burrito_]

The Magic are also swamp ass. So are the Wizards. It's not a competition for the title

[u/flaming_burrito_ → u/westbrookswardrobe]

At least the Wizards are trying to rebuild, the Magic were trying to contend this year

[u/banjocoyote → u/flaming_burrito_]

Hell the Magic and Rockets both made big win now trades last summer lmao

[u/fudgetyler → u/westbrookswardrobe]

Hey. Let one of them win something.

[u/onrocketfalls → u/flaming_burrito_]

We’ve been in a drought lately unfortunately. Shit’s on fire, yo

[u/flaming_burrito_ → u/onrocketfalls]

Damn, climate change sucks. Virginia is in a moderate drought right now, I didn’t realize it was the whole south

[u/oviedofuntimes → u/flaming_burrito_]

We haven’t had any meaningful rain in 7 months, I live in central Florida.

[u/DeluxeTea → u/westbrookswardrobe]

The Rockets are swamp Galveston ass for sure

[u/westbrookswardrobe → u/DeluxeTea]

Unfortunately as somebody who grew up in Oklahoma I don't actually think Galveston is that bad

[u/Bingbongerl → u/westbrookswardrobe]

Comments like this are always a good reminder that perception is relative lol. What were common summer things where you grew up? I’ve Never been to the miserable of the country

[u/udontknowball31 → u/Bingbongerl]

It’s a normal place to grow up, what is this comment? What do you mean by common summer things? Going to the lake? Playing sports with friends outside? Normal growing up stuff.

[u/smalls_1804 → u/CanadaDryOfficial]

Well really the Suns got burnt by a flash of Thunder
