'Glib' - when the words come out your mouth are fluent, but insincere and shallow.
McDonald's Sprite tastes good, it has just the right sweetness and fizz. It's always exactly the same wherever you go yet somewhat fake and hollow. Similarly, hotel conditioners in my experience, are cold and effective - in the way a walk in fridge is designed to keep meat fresh. Purely functional and devoid of tangible comfort. 'Glib'.
Ok, but my workplace has a walk in freezer and that place absolutely has "tangible comfort" in abundance when it's 95° outside and the air conditioner barely keeps up with the ovens....
I worked in a kitchen at a cult on a compound in Texas for a year and that summer was a hot one. One those 100F+ days I’d head into the kitchen on my off hours and hang out in the deep freeze walk in. This was 20 years ago, but if memory serves it was set to something like -10F, and god was it wonderful to cool down in. I’d stay in for 5 or 10 minutes and come out ready to go again. I loved it.
I'm not sure if I understand how hotel AC functionality is devoid of comfort. Wouldn't a functional AC also be indicative of comfort? Definitely better than a Non-functional AC i suppose.
