I understand the joke but let's be honest an admit we do not know.
Hottest summer in my life was in 2007, being so hot and humid it felt like breathing inside a sauna.
I can objectively see weather patterns changing, which implies the underlying climate is changing as a whole, but objectively speaking, up until now, 2024 has been a proper year, with real seasons, rain, cold and snow where it belongs.
I no longer have the patience to debate blatant climate falsehoods seriously. If you want respectful responses to your comments, respect your audience and don't make objectively false claims.
And somehow I doubt we share the same understanding of the expression being used and have the same view over the use of sarcasm when conducting polite conversation.
