I am this guy. I get warm so fucking quick. It’ll be -10c outside but the moment I walk up a flight of stairs I’ll be sweating
When I was in undergrad, I used to walk to and from my jujutsu dojo a mile away from my dorm. The way back had a big hill leading up to my dorm; I would start out at the bottom wearing a big coat and end up at the top with the coat tied around my waist! The weight of the winter gear and the difficulty of trudging through fresh snow just makes it that much more of a workout.
Cold is a mindset most of the time.
Exactly. There’s a huge gap between ‘feeling cold’ and ‘being cold’. The human body is perfectly capable of operating for extended periods at temperatures that we deem ‘uncomfortable’. After all, our species survived to the present day, and proper clothing and central heating are relatively new inventions.
The human body itself produces a tremendous amount of heat. Go sit in a cold room with a few friends and it’ll soon get toasty.
I’ve spent a good amount of hours outdoors in cold and rainy weather. If you give in to ‘feeling cold’, the body doesn’t really learn to adapt to it. I know exactly when my body goes from ‘this feels cold’ to actually being cold and at risk of hypothermia.
That guy just had a sports practice and his body temperature is elevated.
Signed, an athlete in a winter climate.

Fuck that crap. Not only my shorts all the time, but, I have 2 kilts. A utilikilt and a dress tartan kilt.
Every time I see someone like this it angers me and fascinates me.
Hos don’t get cold
BE the inspiration that you want to see in the world! 😜
Ah yes, the midwesterner.
Canadian?
Oh absolutely. Had some Sault Ste Marie relatives in town and if it is over 5°C/40°F they dress as though they’re going to the beach!
Haha, beat me to it!
I’ve seen them go outside in shorts and t-shirts when it breaks 0, and washing their cars when it breaks 32.
That’s me, I’m never cold. Cold wind can be cold, but when there is no wind, there cannot be cold.
Long pants are refereed to as big boy pants
I’d rather be uncomfortably cold for the 15 minutes I spend outside than uncomfortably hot for the majority of the time inside.
Coats can be a pain when you are going somewhere you can’t hang them up. But if you are hot indoors during the winter in long pants you should probably consult someone. Unless you are visiting your aunt Edna who keeps her house at 80F
Oh good I’m just hot indoors all year in long pants.
Or lose my jacket because I don’t want to be uncomfortably hot.
Hey look, it’s me
Hey you
It’s snowing so it can’t actually be that cold, it’s fine
Like when I was shovelling snow at -10C in a t-shirt. My neighbor came out to do the same, wrapped up in thick coat, hat, scarf, gloves, etc, and still shivering.
Winter heat exhaustion can cause heart attacks.
I thought I was gonna have that last week. Walking a kilometer in ski shoes + 4 pair of skis + 17°C has to be some sort of personal record for me. Hopefully never again.
I was this guy when i lived in hungary but the funny part was that it was actually like 10c and spring(even tho historically it used to go below minus 10 there during winter). Now that i live in sweden i realize people are also like that here but thankfully the large amount of finns who live here spice it up. Im not even kidding when it was my first winter here and a guy showed up in shorts in -20c while i had two hoodies and a winter jacket on and was still freezing. Always the finns.
