2016 was the warmest year since humans began keeping records, by a wide margin. Global average temperatures were extremely hot in the first few months of the year, pushed up by a large El NiƱo event. Global surface temperatures dropped in the second half of 2016, yet still show a continuation of global warming.

This is the third record-breaking year in a row.

    The ten rules of butthurt, with apologies to jmorris!

    Rule One: Butthurts Always Lie.
    Rule Two: Butthurts Always Double Down.
    Rule Three: Butthurts Always Project.
    Rule Four: Butthurts always deny. Felonies, Misdemeanors, Global Warming, vaccines, all of it.

    jmorris is much more familiar with the "Rules of Acquisition".
