      I can’t wait until my wife and I reach the: it’s time for a hot tub age. We’re not quite there yet, but winter offers us a lot of cold for the joy when it arrives.

    i want a map of where people say they prefer winter or summer, because as someone in the nordics i’d say winter can eat shit and die but the whole problem is that it has already done so.
    Winter isn’t winter anymore, it’s just a bleak version of autumn/spring where nothing is alive and it’s all cold and wet.

    If winter was actually winter it’d be great, proper snow that doesn’t just soak into your shoes and freeze into ice that makes you crack your head open if you dare step outside.
    But no, winter is dead and thus summer wins by default, at least in the summer there are some things to enjoy outside.

      The limited daylight hours really is the worst part of it for me. It consistently takes a pretty notable hit to my mood.

    Winter is better because you can always add more layers.

    You can only remove so many in the summer before the police get called.

      In stereotypical winter you can’t add enough layers since if you do add layers so your face doesn’t hurt you get accosted by the police because going to public places in a balaclava hasn’t been legal since the late 50s.

      In winter as it actually happens you need fewer layers but they need to be waterproof because winter means rain at +2 °C.

      Seems like there’s some correlation with your average Florida Man and many of them seem to belong in an institution too.

      Hi! I‘m one of them. Though 85F (30°C) is not that much, that’s barely enough to cool down in the pool. I also like 110 degree (42°C) showers. Also, my idle body temp is only about 96F (35,5°C)
