    It’s not one thing, it’s multiple things together.

    Cold is okay alone, but add wind and/or rain and cold sucks.

    Heat is okay without humidity, and as long as it still gets cool at night for a break. Heat with wind and/or rain is okay, but heat with wind and dust sucks. Dust always sucks.

    If it gets too cold I can bundle up. If it gets too hot theres only so many clothes I can take off before that bitch Brenda goes to H.R.

      See, my problem is that being too hot is just uncomfortable to me but being too cold is physically painful no matter how many layers I put on.

      I have touch sensitivity, so I don’t like to bundle up. I’d rather just work naked from home.

    I wish USA would go metric so I could instinctively understand what 45⁰C is without consulting a conversion calculator. I’m guessing 45⁰C is 90-100F? BRB lemme verify …

      What I did, was I just switched my phone’s weather app to Celsius and spent a year walking outside to work. It rewires your sense of temperature.

      source
      • CalypsoGirl@lemmy.today ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

        That sounds like a great idea! Then I remembered the reality of how I use my weather app. I use it when I’m too lazy to go outside to check the temperature IRL 😂

      Nah, we can adopt metric but I’ll never quit using Fahrenheit.

    Don’t have to shovel heat.

      Don’t have to mow, rake, weed whack, or trim the cold

        That’s because everything is dead and brown. I’ll take the yard work in the heat for the green.

      We’ve had those temps, and sweating all day with AC unit running sucks. I’d much rather put on a sweater if I feel chilly in the Winter.

      It doesn’t typically snow enough to shovel where I live

    I can put on 3 layers of clothes but i cannot take off my skin to get cooler

    It’s also easier to add heat in a room than to remove it in my exp

    • hansolo@lemmy.today ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      This is only how a cold weather person thinks about heat. That’s not how real life works.

      One light layer of linen is amazing. Your body does the work on its own. Touregs in the Sahara wear a light layer of light fabric. Look at Saudis and the traditional outfit. Italy in the summer. All similar. All perfectly comfortable.

    Two words. Seasonal depression. You don’t get that in the summer.

        The sunlight makes up for it. Having like 6 hours of real sunlight fucking sucks. I also hate having to put on like six layers to take out the garbage without having the air hurt my skin

      Come live in the hellscape of Texas. You cannot go outside from late may until mid October. It was 103F+ from mid July until 3 days ago. I paid almost $700 for my electric bill last month. The house is stale and hasn’t had fresh air in months. I have a huge list of projects that I very much want to make progress on, but ten minutes outside takes me multiple hours to recover from. The temperature in the parking lot in front of the grocery store was above 120F a few days ago.

      Seasonal depression occurs in the cursed summer here. As soon as my family members pass on, I will never return to this god forsaken, scorched wasteland.

        Well then I invite You to Poland, where besides 3 months of summer everything is gray, cold and damp. The grass is always greener I guess.

    • CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I am thoroughly depressed all summer. The first cooler, shorter day I’m like a happy new person. I’m a redhead and can easily get sick being in the sun. Fuck summer, bring on the cooler, shorter, stormier days and I’m all in for snowball fights, sledding, soups, sweaters, cozy fires, and a good scotch.

        Seeing the sun, not having the air be so cold that any exposed skin hurts, air that isn’t so dry I feel like I’m suffocating, grocery runs not feeling like a trek through the Antarctic

        No flu, no sickness (maybe once), no runny nose, no stiff joints, wanting to actually do stuff, having more productive time to do stuff, being able to go into nature and hang out all the time.

        Winters are absolutely depressing and miserable.

        source
  • RBWells@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    I just really hate cold weather and short days. My body is better at staying cool than warm. When you ask people what they like about winter they always say sweaters and fires, being warm. I like doing that without gear.

    early-mid fall is the best season, not too hot or cold

    source
  • 9point6@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Autumn and spring are better than both. Both of the extremes are getting less fun every year.

    I don’t like it when it’s so hot I want to take off my skin

    I also don’t like it when it’s so cold I have to somehow instantly magic another 4 layers on/off me when walking through a door to not freeze/sweat to death.

    Give me comfortable 2 layer weather where I can wear the same thing indoors and outdoors and feel fine

    • VeganBtw@piefed.social ⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Yes, and if there was a way to magically make seasonal allergies go away for good, I’d get a couple more months of comfort every year.

    Technically people should hate me most cause i offend everyone. I like very continental climates so both hot summers and cold winters, i just like seeing the seasons and the smell in the air change, having a dip in a cold lake or sea during summer, having the perfect weather for outdoor activites during fall, being able to ski, build snowmen, chill inside during winter, etc. I know i have bias cause i was born somewhere where the climate is like this but i just love it. Everyone has their preferences.

    You can put on more clothes to mitigate a cold winter, but can you put off more clothes in summer when you are already bare naked? No… Winter wins!

    Until its -45C in winter. Then you change your opinion at an instant.
