Then again, you two grew up in hot climates and I grew up in a cold climate.

I grew up in a cold climate, and I'll take the 80

And now it's started snowing here... but it's not supposed to accumulate, I don't think.

80 degrees is nothing to me. Not hot nor cold.

Same here, it's 82 today, feels like 87, and I don't feel hot at all.

It's definitely below freezing here, and all I'm wearing is a sweatshirt. o.O

See what the weather was like in the Minnesota/Chicago NFL game?

Yeah. That's cold.

Don't worry. After a while you build up immunity to it.

That's when you walk outside when it's -5C and say "Hm. Not that cold".

Scarily enough, that is me right there.

Of course I'm wearing a scarf, a hat, mittens, and multiple layers throughout.

I live in Maine and cannot claim this immunity anymore. I think it has to do with my lacking layer of fat I used to have ready for hibernation.

Yep, Colin basically has got it.

I grew up dealing with extremely cold and snowy winters for most of my life. Sure, some days would be uncomfortably cold even bundled up, but I'd trudge through them out of necessity. So I learned how to deal with extreme cold.

I wear a jacket, sweater and shirt. And I have a hood on the jacket. And gloves.

Even then, if it's -15C or below... it's FREEZING. Your immunity runs out then.

I don't see how you guys can wear so much clothes. I feel so uncomfortable layering anything.

I suspect that you'd get used to it if you lived a bit further north, Ms. 71° Fahrenheit.

I tend to get uncomfortable with the layers when I'm indoors. Outside they protect me from the cold, but in a heated room they just make me hot and sweaty. Hence why I don't typically wear stuff like sweaters that can't easily be removed.

Doubt it. I can't stand wearing two shirts, or a shirt and a sweater, or...well, you get the idea.

Neat. Phone emulators are great, my phone is too old for GBA but can run 8-bit systems pretty well...

I don't even have a phone that can remotely do that.

I'm sure there's no way in hell I could afford one without taking out a small, personal loan.
