It's a new sheet of ice that is much harder to get off, and at best the snow thats on there is now slushy. I had a friend try that in college.

The best is when you have windshield wiper fluid in and you do do the accidental spray and it lays a small amount of ice forming on the windshield so you have to just perma spray it for like 3 minutes until your car heats up enough.

as a resident of the south, i can tell you with confidence that some folks have no loving clue what to do when the temperature drops below 40, and that many of them are unaware of exactly how cold surfaces can get when they’re outside overnight

a decent brush/scraper costs like what, 8 bucks? it’s way faster especially if your windshield os frozen solid

I live in Minnesota so have never seen or heard of anyone dumb enough to throw hot water on their car to clear off ice or snow, does it break the glass? Or is it just a new sheet of ice?

It entombs the car in like a quarter inch of ice. It's awesome.

This too. Auto glass is has multiple layers fused together to generate internal stresses in the material. This means when it breaks it doesn't create huge decapitating shards in a high speed collision but it also means it can be more susceptible to thermal shock. Like pouring boiling water on a frozen car.

No you misunderstand.

The scenario is its cold but your windshield is clear of ice. But there is a lot of road grime from dirty slushy snow getting kicked up on your windshield so you without thinking hit the windshield spray and it cleans up the windshield but immediately starts frosting over so you have to kind of pump it a few times til the car's windshield vent heaters can kick on and warm up enough.

This was mostly a thing that happened in a lovely car in high school or whatever. New cars a way better at handling this.

I'll admit a dumb thing, I was driving in the woods around christmas and a bug hit my windshield so I hit the wipers and it sprayed ice all over the window, I didn't even know it was that cold and also that sort of thing happened, if a moose would have ran in front of me at that moment I would have been dead.

The best case scenario is that it's so cold and dry that the boiling water vaporizes before it hits the windshield, resulting in cool special effects.

I was in a barbershop in Boston once and the barber was bragging about cutting Brian Scalabrine's hair all the time. No pics on the wall though, so I assume it didn't happen.

Fire Donnie Nelson. Just because he did the obvious right move and got Luka doesn't mean the team should keep him. Maybe fire Carlisle as well.

I’d suggest the usual trade for Rozier but the Mavs don’t actually have any draft picks or interesting young (non-Luka) players
