  • real life elsas and olafs?

    I was at the bus stop waiting. It was freezing. It was raining ice. I had two layers on and I still couldn't feel my hands nor feet. Yet I see not just one or two but 15 people pass by in t shirts and shorts! No scarf nor hat! Are they extremists? You know, those people who take ice baths and jump into ice lakes for thrills?
    I went home, use the heater to revive my feet, and drank some hot chocolate for my hands. I like cold better than hot, but this is too much. :\ Do you all prefer the super hot or super cold?

    HOT! HOT! HOT!

    Dry hot, though. The older I get, the more I hate humidity. I didn't used to care, but things change.

    Last week I saw a woman wearing capri leggings, flats and a t-shirt with cap sleeves, crossing a VERY snowy parking lot to get to her car. WTF??

        I hate being cold. Being cold is literally my least favorite thing ever.

          I LOVE the cold, but not the wet. I don't mind dry heat, but I HATE HATE HATE humidity with a burning passion and it has doubled since I came over here!

            I hate both extremes, but if I were forced to choose, I'd go with cold. You can always put more clothes on in cold weather; you can only undress so far in hot weather.

            But yeah, extremes suck. Give me autumn or spring any day!

                What she said. Though I much prefer somewhere in the middle. Upper 60s/low 70s is perfect.

                On the other hand, I am always cold and I hate it. I swear the heat at work goes down after lunch, because I am always freezing in the afternoon.

                  I've got a friend who in -20 weather tends to run around in jeans, t-shirt, sneakers, and a wind-breaker style jacket...and complain that she's too hot. I have never been able to figure that out at all, but she's been like that for as long as I have known her.

                    I love cold weather. I adored living in Fargo, ND, especially during the winter. Heat and humidity can just go suck it.

                    That said, I do get cold easily, but I love dressing in sweaters and sweatshirts, so it's all good.

                      I'd much rather deal with extreme heat than extreme cold, if only because that means it's summer, it's light out more and I will be spending more time outside.

                        I do have a strangeness where if its within a few degrees of room temperature my body is fussy on whether its right or not and I'll do the sweater/blanket yoyo trying to make it right. However out of those ranges - especially in the cold - I'm actually far less effected than a "normal" person is. Windchill does affect that but normally more for my breathing than the actual temperature.

                        If it is too hot I'm far less happy though I do have a bit of the same reaction.

                          I'm a total hot weather person. The cold makes me huddle inside and pout for days on end, the heat makes me want to go out and bake in it. So I keep moving further north - go figure. (It's been 39 days since it has been above freezing here, and I am well and truly over it!)

                            I'll put it this way.......if I had the resources, I would love to move out of the Phoenix area. (The weather's been great the past few days, but I am NOT looking forward to warmer weather)

                              See, this isn't really true; I can only wear so many pairs of pants at one time.

                              When we had below zero temps here recently, I wore to work: 2 pairs of Cuddleduds pants, one Cuddleduds shirt, my heaviest jeans, a heavy sweater, my down jacket, a big scarf, a fleece hood, my down/fleece earmuffs and a pair of thin gloves under my mittens. Oh, and my heavy boots.

                              Why all that? Because I had walk to the bus, wait for the bus, walk to the train, and walk from the train stop to the building where I work, in -8 temps with a wind chill of -25. My face still felt like it was going to freeze up and fall off. My eyes watered, and damn near froze my eyeballs.

                              At a certain point, you really can't get any more clothes on....not if you need to move, anyway
