BULLSHIT! We get longer daylight, and the sweat is just a gentle reminder that you aren't in constant pain from temperatures below 60F. Also there are less snowbirds jamming the roadways.

You can always put on more layers. You can't remove skin.

Not with that attitude!

This answer is too common and very selfish. I wear long sleeves and jeans in Florida summer for protection. Layers are the most inconvenient thing ever! Like, the impracticality of it is rediculous. How about I tell you that you can always cling wrap blocks of ice to your body, you entitled asshole! Yeah, and you can plug your freezer suit into the wall to stay cool. How convenient does that sound?! You're probably a morning person, too.

That is getting close to how I feel about the cold. I learned about how people differently experience pain and mine feels cold. So cold weather just feels like pain and it makes me grumpier.

I'm a night owl who likes winter, how is that relevant?

I sympathize though. I think being in Florida is the culprit. It is much nicer when your outside isn't actively trying to fry you. The humidity makes me feel like a lobster being boiled alive.

And you're not in constant pain from temperature above 80?

[–] multifariace@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Not in the slightest. I had a job for a while that occasionally used an open oven that got over 200F and it felt amazing to be in that space. That was in Florida summer.

This is horrifying

That doesn’t happen until after 90f. I’m from Florida and I would love for the temps to stay in the 80’s during the summer!

Oh I see, your brain has been addled by the heat and humidity :(

[–] LwL@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

converts 60F to Celsius 60F is genuinely the most comfortablr possible temp for me lol. Even a little too warm if it's sunny.

[–] multifariace@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

24C is about the coolest comfortable temperature for me.

I've lived in temps ranging from 112°F to -23°F. Anything 40°F-85°F is fine by me.
