Ha I live in Australia
Autumn/fall FTW
I’m in Australia. Winter here is basically spring in California.
If I try doing any of that in the summer either I die of heat stroke or I die of starvation (because I can no longer afford food because of how much I'm spending on AC).
Summer would be pretty good if I could wear a negative amount of clothes
I love winter. Trout move into our rivers to spawn and the obnoxious litter bugs are gone from the parks.
In shorts, no shirt 😁
Put me out in the cold, I love the cold! Coldness is kind of a state of mind. Obviously there comes a point where being too cold is dangerous, but I find I can think myself out of being bothered by low temps.
I think it's the Norwegians who have a saying something like, "there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes for the weather". I have a lovely Kangol jacket which keeps me warm in cold environments (and sweaty everywhere else)
Snowshoes & shorts are a classic combination.
I have a cozy jacket too.
I've come to a decision recently that even if I prefer winter, winter is the wrong best month. And so is summer.
Both arguments are right. I don't want to sweat my junk off and I shouldn't be happy to pay extortionate bills to be comfy. There are two other seasons where it's not extreme. One for people who like plants and one for people who like the colour orange.
Weirdly I'm surprised that they aren't more popular since they are the sign the apex of your discomfort, whether that be cold or hot, is over.
I only ever choose to go outside when it's cold.
Fuck the heat.
I am the person they describe except I say I hate winter.
