I know this was from a week ago, but I just saw something relevant.
There’s a rarely used Ancient Greek word, κακοθερής, which means “unsuitable for summer.” Most modern people view this as saying there’s a word that means you’re “bad at summer.”
In Modern Greek, the word summer is καλοκαίρι - a compound word that is basically “beautiful weather” used as one word. I couldn’t agree more. So I’ll just go join my fellow olive oil enjoyers in worshiping the magic of the season.
Surprisingly, different people have different tolerances for hot and cold. I’m perfectly comfortable at 60F. I’ve shovelled ice from a driveway in jeans and a short sleeve t-shirt more than once. 75F+ is borderline too warm. 85F+ and I avoid going outside as much as possible.
Same. I’ll take 110F/43C any day over 10F/-10C. 85/35 is my happy place.
You’re mad.
20c or lower.
If it’s warmer I am not liable for dripping sweat all over things.

Naw, 75F+ is gross. 60F is the sweet spot.
Too cold. 75°F year round is ideal. I wish I could afford San Diego.
Naw, light jacket weather is superior to shorts weather all day, everyday
Nah. Being naked in the face of the burning sun is superior to needing clothes for comfort.
Naw, sweating just for standing outside ain’t it. I’d rather have the option to be cold outside and warmer with clothes if I choose.
LOL 75°F isn’t “warm”. Nobody is going to sweat from just standing outside in 75° weather. You need 110°+ for that to happen.

But then you never get to enjoy the beach.
I try to avoid the beach as much as possible. I’ll take snowy mountains over the beach.
Grew up in San Diego. Twas 75F year round
