Did you have A/C in your home while growing up ? - Yes we did, growing up and living in Phoenix, A/C in the summer is a definite requirement.
If not do you remember when you did get AC ? - A/C comes as standard equipment in houses, and if you buy an automobile, you have to make sure it has A/C, high temperatures in July can sometimes soar up to 115 degrees.
Do you now have Central AC or window units ? - Yeah, I had one of those in the automobiles I owned before, it's called the 2-60 A/C, it's a window unit because it involves 2 Windows down, and 60 MPH... - Seriously, I don't ever remember a window unit, every place I've lived in had central A/C.
Where do you keep the AC temp set ? - Oh.. around 75 to 78.
Bonus Question:
lol Last thing that had you wanting to:
Pull your hair out ? - Mother nature has already taken care of that..
Bang your head against the wall ? - The last time I did that, I ended up putting a hole in the wall, and a headache, so I stopped doing that.. - I'm just kidding, I've never done that, the only "Head Banging" I've ever done was in the 1980s while listening to Head Banging music..
Run far far away ? - Hmmm.. I'm not sure if running could have helped, it might have taken me a very long time to get there.. Besides, it might be a little tough to run to Hawaii..
