I much prefer autumn/winter. Only when it gets really slippery from frozen over streets it starts to suck, i can always dress warmer. I cant wear less than nothing, and it is still way too hot.
Can always put on more clothes, but can’t undress more than naked…
and when yer nekkid, the mosquitoes have a bigger target.
mosquitoes are not a problem in the winter.
You fool! Thinking only in terms of conserving body heat.
Light clothing is the cooler option, compared to being naked.
Evaporative cooling using just your sweat. We’re literally built for this as a species.
Wear a hat and have a mai thai. It’s like you don’t even know people have lived in the Sahara for longer than language has existed.

Go swimming or wear light cotton.
Ah yes, because i want to swim all day and do nothing…wait my boss is callin! I can’t now though, i have to swim!!!
I do. But in the next heatwave the local lake water might reach 38°C or water became so scarce from the drought…: now what?
I love summer.
I’d rather have 90° than 9°.
I like having daylight past 4pm.
I like seeing blue skies and the sun.
I like being able to go outside without bundling up under five layers, and still being cold.
I like not having to shovel my walks, snowblower my drive, scrape off my car, etc.
I like swimming.
I like seeing green trees, colorful flowers , bumblebees, and nature.
I like taking my kid to the park so he can ride his skateboard.
I like going to the beach.Fuck winter, man.
This is why I love living in a place that has more than 2 seasons.
Spring is short, but features temperatures in between 90 and 9, increasing daylight into the evening, blue skies and sun, moderate temperatures that don’t require that much in the way of bundling if at all, very little (if any) wintery precipitation, all the nature stuff at its earliest pristine moments, lovely parks, and the beach never goes away around here regardless of the season.
Okay, so limited to no swimming in the spring because most water is still kinda chilly.
We also have Fall. It tends to be longer than the Spring, but with fewer of the benefits.
Remember when humanity had not almost eradicated two seasons through climate change and you could be a spring or autumn lover?
Remember when the wet bulb temperature was evolutionarily advantageous for sweat-monsters like me? Now I’m just as hot, and infinitely more wet than everyone around me.
This is me. Always hot, wet, and dirty … the definitions change depending on the time of year, however …
There’s no limit to how many layers I can wear in winter, but there’s a limit to how many I can take off in the summer. Simple as
You don’t have a knife? They’re not nearly as expensive as a good coat.
Even with a knife scraping off everything that makes you human, you will eventually encounter a limit.
And eventually the coats will crush you, create their own weather system, collapse into a black hole. What’s your point?
Yeah but putting that layer back might be very expensive 😄
There is definitely a limit to how many layers you can put on.
I mean a shirt, sweater, and insulated jacket can keep me very warm flying down a windy mountain at <-20C so do you really need that many layers?
I’ve done undershirt - overshirt - jacket 1 - jacket 2 in the dead of winter. If the Sun vanished and the temperature plummeted to -100 I’m pretty sure i could figure out how to add a third jacket and then a blanket on top of that.
Love the summer. I love my skin not feeling cold as balls as soon as I step outside. Love not taking a cold ass shower in the morning before work. Love the sun being out later into the evening. Love doing outdoor shit. Swimming. Love the warm nights. Hanging out naked.
Winter is the sad time.
Why do you take cold showers in the winter? That seems like a poor personal choice if you don’t enjoy the cold
I imagine oop refers to the water in the pipes getting cold over night in winter, and they’re probably not patient enough for the hot water to start flowing.
The air in the room is cold, showering in a cold room is a cold shower compared to showering in a warm room. I have a steam shower now and I use it year round, even in the summer I will do steam and let the shower its self be cool water. Showering in cold air SUCKS
I have never once had a living arrangement where the shower didn’t warm the room
I’m sure it would be expensive to replace but my current place has heated exhaust vents that reverse direction, I’ve seen the modern versions, but these straight up look like stove elements in the ceiling, they might not pass modern safety standards but they are really nice.
Hello, hot weather person. Congratulations on how we’re going to INHERIT THE EARTH FROM THESE COLD WEATHER WEAKLINGS
That’s fine im moving to canada the northern part that’s my retirement plan lol
Canada’s expensive. Maybe Russia will stop being fascist and I can head up there some day. Or maybe China will chill the fuck out and let me go to Tibet. It’d be pretty cool to do visa runs through Napal or India if they ever normalize relations with China.
well, until nuclear winter, anyways
Prefer snow to ticks and mosquitoes ngl.
Right?
I’m done with summer. Looking forward to that first early morning air nip with a dusting of frost on the ferns, presaging the arrival of snow.I’ll enjoy winter as long as it lasts. Probably not for long, snow has become a distant memory
Unfortunately for us, the best times of the year are about half a month in the spring and half a month in the fall
Cool. We don’t get snow anymore though… just gray weather, cold and humid enough to be uncomfortable but not enough to be fun.
Honestly the cold grey weather is second best weather. Just after cold winter night, as far away as possible from the blazing ball of fusion in the sky blinding and boiling us alive. I’d love polar night.
Summer just started (here in the northern hemisphere). I’m soaking up every last bit of warmth in hopes it lasts until it comes around again. (It never does.)
I actually love the feeling of a hot wall of furnace hitting me when I go outside. Thick smell of life in the air, chlorophyll, baking earth. The hot blanket of the sun. The sweat, the sweaty men, the shirtless men. OK I am getting off track, we were talking about sweaty men I think?
Yess hello it is me, the sweatiest man, I sweat for hours every day just for the fun of it.
People in their skimpy summer clothes is enough for me to enjoy summer, everything else is just a bonus
No cold seeping so deeply into my bones that it lodges itself there to radiate outward through my whole body so I can barely move.
No aching dryness making it almost impossible to breathe.
I know many aren’t built for heat but cold causes me near-debilitating pain and drains my soul of life. I’ll enjoy the warmth and sun while it lasts.
Here in Australia I’m hosting a snow trip next week… there is still no snow in the mountains where we’re goin
Also f summer. Hayfever and bushfires suck
I have several friends in Australia. Most of them have never experienced snow so how unusual is that really?
Yes I will gladly take the pits of hell over anything from Jack Frost or temperatures going anywhere below 70.
You can always put more on, but there’s a hard limit to what you can take off.
But I enjoy being hot
then wear a black hoodie outside?
I’m a bit cold blooded myself. What’s that, you want me to go in the unheated pool? Fuck you! I just got warm!
Hence the picture. Above 70 F is where it begins to get uncomfortable. Then it gets much higher than that as well
Assuming you are talking in Fahrenheit you don’t really need a jacket for everything above 35° as long as it doesn’t rain or is particularly windy. 100° just make me feel as if I am getting cooked alive with nowhere to escape
I’m the dude you’ll see wearing a sweater in 60 cause that’s when I start feeling cold. It’s been hitting the triple digits where I live lately and I’m loving it. Been going for long walks at local parks.
The only season I can enjoy outside is Fall. Summer is too hot, Winter is too cold, and I get allergies in the Spring.
Fall is perfect.
This is everyone in Arizona in the summer. “At least there is no windshield scraping!”
AZ people are delusional.
Peggy Hill was right
Phoenix is a monument to the hubris of man.
Phoenix and Vegas are competing for worst place to build gigantic cites.
Amen! I may not believe in a god but if I did, it’s obvious that land was not meant for humans.
*Everyone in Southern AZ
The high desert portions of the state like Flagstaff and Sedona get snow every year and aren’t nearly as bad as the Phoenix valley. It still gets pretty hot but it’s not the unmitigated hellhole of constant 100 degree days.
Ooh, Arizona, sounds exotic!
Where is that? Somewhere in Africa?
I love summer, but you have to do it right. Going to the store and walking across a hot blacktop parking lot is asking for a bad time.
Hanging out in a park, going for hike, swimming, hitting the beach, more daylight hours, ice cream, grilling and admiring the greenery. That’s peak life on Earth 🌎🌍
All of those things happen outside in the blistering heat with the sun beating down on you as your sweat makes your clothes stick to your body. No thanks. You can also do them all far better in spring or fall.
Heat index was about 42°C and humid today. Just being outside for 30 seconds was miserable, let alone walking. Can’t even think about any outdoor activities.
