Happy Mother's Day to all moms, and I guess non-moms, too. I mean, there's no reason it can't be a happy Mother's Day for everyone.

Isnt it a bit troublesome to set the acs up, seal them use .. then dismount them again and again?
or do houses have special mounts for these ACs?

No special mounts, just window sills. The AC rests on the sill and the sits against the window to prevent it from falling out.

You cant install these units stationary in a wall and insulated?

I still find this interesting..they do not sell windows with the shape of AC window units that can be sealed?

Also, hilarious how the temp in the states went from "holy hell its freezing!" with tons of snow..
to roasting with tornado storms.

I'll answer that in three separate responses:

1. Yes they can be installed in a wall and insulated. That is a way many people did it. The problem is that just like everything else, AC designs change every year. And that means that 1) they could be much smaller by the time you have to replace the AC. Replacement is usual because repairs are grossly expensive and buying a new one is cheaper, unless you have to redo the opening in your wall to make the new one fit. Or worse, you upgrade the power and all of a sudden the unit is larger and no longer fits in the custom made hole made in the wall. Big $$$$'s for that. Besides, the majority of the cold air doesn't come from around the AC, it comes through it. It's just a hollow metal or plastic shell with a few components in it and air can blow right around them and straight into the house.

2. The second question (or statement) kind of flies around that same problem. There are, of course, many standard sized windows. However, in recent years the trend has been to custom made window of varying sizes thus making it impossible to manufacture custom made window units to fit all. Add to that the idea that since they are considered portable and traditionally are put in for the summer and taken out for the winter, the goal of AC manufacturers is to make them as compact and light weight as possible. See first response.

3. Yup, it's just tons of hilarity to go from freezing to sweating your butt off while trying to duck away from flying neighborhood roofs.

What an odd word....Why down-pouring and not just pouring....I mean there can't be an Up-pouring now can there?

Evaporation!

Evaporation!

I can see rain pouring down....I can't see water evaporating.

..I mean there can't be an Up-pouring now can there?

Maybe in the Southern Hemisphere?

Steam!

This thread is educational....I was just reading about the Colligative properties of water.

That's some fascinating stuff!

Sorry, PUSH, nice try from a desperate, highly educated College student, but, although both evaporation and steam might work their way upward... pouring would probably not be the proper word to describe it. Except for the possibility of the fountain by Imagination and a few promotional pictures of Sharknado, I have never seen anything "pour" upward. Get it together young man, this could end up on your permanent record.

Wow, thanks for posting that. That is exactly what I did tonight and I was feeling guilty. You have revived my peace of mind.

Pour: 4th definition on dictionary.com: to issue, move, or proceed in great quantity or number

Steam moves many particles in a great quantity or number.

Figured out how to expertly annoy my brother. I was humming "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" from Frozen, and he tells me, "Stop singing 'Do You Want to Build a Snowman'. It's a Christmas song." And I'm like, "No it's not; it's from Frozen silly." So I continued humming it and he told me to stop. So now I randomly pull out my iPod and start playing it, I keep singing it to him, and I think I've asked him about five times if he wants to build a snowman.
