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.
Every time I see someone like this it angers me and fascinates me.

Fuck that crap. Not only my shorts all the time, but, I have 2 kilts. A utilikilt and a dress tartan kilt.
Hos don't get cold
I had a buddy who challenged himself to only wear shorts for the whole year.
He technically didn't succeed because he had to go to an event with a dress code, but I still consider it a success because he didn't choose to wear pants.
That's why there are nice kilts for "dressy" occasions. You do not need any heritage reason to wear a kilt. Can get them in plain colors, eg: khaki.
BE the inspiration that you want to see in the world! 😜
Ah yes, the midwesterner.
Northerners in the uk
And the Valleys and Cardiff
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.
I've discovered my body's secret to cold immunity is going backpacking with a hammock and no under quilt when the lows are in the 20s, with a sleeping bag that lied about its rated temperature.
Unfortunately I have to repeat it every 5-8 years.
It is important to note that the trip where I discovered this was supposed to have lows in the 60s, but a blue northern rolled in on the first night.

ahh yes fellow hammock camper, i gave up at 3am, started a fire and stumbled around in the dark with a headlamp trying to gather more wood.
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.
I feel called out.
Can confirm, we had this person at my school.
I only freeze my finger and back
So i just wear some wind proof jacket/shirt and shoes
Hands in pocket is often enough too
My fingers start to go numb and my asthma sometimes flares up, so i'd replace the jacket with gloves and a ski mask (which is enough to make asthma okay) paired with shorts and tshirt.
Would not recommend being at closed buildings at like 4am dressed like that though unless you like chatting with police.
I teach at the university level and can confirm. A while back, it was 4ºF/-15ºC, and I saw someone dressed like this. I had about 4 layers on and was still cold.
It's always the person's with 4 layers vs the ones dressed like this.
Because I ain't a little bitch, cameraman. Now let's flip it around and see you handle 115F/46C+ temps, it's only fair. Dying of heatstroke already? There is always this person smh
46C where? That's a critical piece of information. Not all 40+ temperatures are equal.
I live in the SW USA, so you've got a few options
I'm usually like that, but last time I went for it there was a lot more wind than anticipated and it hurts. It's not even cold it's just pain.
