Post; Do you like the heat or do you like the cold?


Since I am a Yankee in the South, I get to amuse myself at the sight of some Southerners when the temps drop below 32 degrees (0 degrees Celcius). In one of my classes, people were talking about wearing ski masks to school. I guess its time to break out the pictures of me shoveling snow in shorts

By now, you've figured out that I prefer the cold...now its time for you all to post your opinions on the matter.

Do you like the heat or do you like the cold?

NOTE: There is no middle ground in this poll. I figure most of us would love to have it 75 during the day and 50 at night year round.

At my age, my idea of camping is having to stay @ the Holiday Inn instead of a resort.

Living in a naturally temperate-cold country I tend to gravitate towards the heat however I hate humidity more than heat ie I prefer Arizona heat to Florida heat.

Having said that it is far easier to warm up than it is to cool down so to some degree cold is good too.

Yeah ok I dont know.

Cold is gooooooooooooooooooood. I live in a friggin jungle now. Summertime temps are 40-45 celcius (about 105 farenheit) and 98% humidity. Going commando is not an option its a necessity. And people wonder why all the pandemics seem to originate from this spot on the globe... go figure.

I like the cold. I think I have you beat on the shoveling snow in shorts. I've been sledding in my boxers and bailed out multiple times within the same hour.
