    Real talk! I grew up on the equator and moved to somewhere it snows on occasion. All the mfers saying “I can only get so naked” haven’t experienced the cold.

      I grew up (and still live) in a part of Canada where it regularly gets below -40°C in the winter, and… no. I 100% will say stuff like “I can’t take off any more clothes.”

      Winter is fine, I can always add another layer. Summer sucks now, it didn’t get this hot nearly as often in the past, and I mostly hate summer now.

              Yes, summer is indeed more hot.

              It’s hotter than the other seasons, and it’s hotter than it used to be.

              I don’t like the hot.

              I prefer the cold, and my comment was saying I prefer the cold, specifically because I can’t handle the hot well.

              I was saying it’s very silly to claim something along the lines of “The only reason people think they prefer the cold season is because they haven’t experienced real cold.”

              I’ve experienced the cold. I prefer it.

              I still see no contradiction, but maybe I’m just dense?
