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.
