Anyone else hate hot weather?
Anyone else hate hot weather?
I'm grumpy and if one more person says "this is great isn't it?" I'm going to scream

I absolutely loathe it. See y'all in 5 months...
-
I'm literally indoors with the curtains shut, fuck what the neighbours think
-
Nothing works in my flat or the one before.
All windows open, got a fan blowing with the direction of the breeze.
All windows closed, blinds and curtains closed, close off the warmer rooms.
My thermometer shows no difference day to day in my kitchen area.
I was in the loft in my last flat, sloped ceilings and they had zero insulation. Only the top part of the ceiling where it was flat had insulation. The sloped parts of the ceiling were hot to the touch and it got up to 37.5 Celsius over the one summer.
I put my ear thermometer to my metal keyboard and it read 42 Celsius.
The way the house was positioned, the wind used to blow along it and I only had windows front and back, so zero breeze at all.

Not me, I fucking love it.
Summer is happiness and possibilities and blue skies and perfect days. Winter is grim, grey, dark, and cold. Summer is life, winter is death.
I’ve pretty much always felt that way but even more so right now. I’m on just about every single medication the NHS prescribes for high blood pressure and the cocktail of drugs makes me feel cold all the time. Winter is six months of shivering for me, no matter how many layers I put on. This is the first week of the year I haven’t been miserable with cold.
-
Dunno why someone down voted you as I kinda understand your pov...
My father in law is on blood thinners and it's days like this when he can strip down to only 1 layer 🙂

It's miserable. I hate hate hot weather. I feel like I'm made of sugar and just melt in even the mildest heat.
-
I’m ok when it’s warm, not hot. I’m not a fan of the baking sun, give me slightly overcast or shady.
-
This is great, isn’t it.
-
Baaarrrgghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! 😱😱😱

If it's too warm to wear a coat, I suffer from problems with pocket distribution.
A coat also forms an important layer of psychological armour.
-
I had similar problems until I finally tried a man bag on warm days. It'll change your life.
-
This is, for those who don't, a great option - but I'm already carrying either a "messenger bag" or a small rucksack.
To put it in different terms, my overall inventory is fine, but the problem is that hot weather causes you to lose all your "quick inventory slots".
Imagine any computer game where you store a selection of key items in the quick slots, which you can access with the 1-9 keys. In summer, only the shortcuts 1 and 2 work, and for everything else you have to go in your main inventory, so you keep swapping which items are in 1 and 2, but you have no consistency in what's under each number, so you're trying to get your train ticket out, but you end up with your house keys.

Cargo shorts! For some reason they are way more acceptable than their longer counterparts.
-
I appreciate your enthusiasm, but though helpful in the pocket department (much like the full length trousers equivalent), shorts of any kind really fail on the "psychological armour" element. That's practically like walking about in your undies.

-
Good point! I like to cover my mouth with the collar makes me feel hidden
-
-
It's like, do I prefer being sweaty or cosy?
-
Yes. At least when it's cold I can wrap up warm. There's only so much clothing I can take off before I feel self-conscious
-
I enjoy it. It improves my mood massively over the constant dark, cooler months. Just throwing on a t-shirt & shorts is a lot more comfortable than throwing on jeans, jumper/hoody etc.
There is a point where it's too hot though, probably around 25C, although I can tolerate the heat a lot more in countries like Turkey or Spain.
-
Well swap, you have my sweltering summers I'll have your lovely cold winters
-
-
Yes
-
No

I live in Imperial Beach, CA, US. At no time of the year is it ever colder than about 5° C, at not time of the year does it exceed 30° C.
Come for a visit once the country regains some semblance of normalcy.
It is currently 15°C with an expected high of 18-20.

Everyone likes hot weather. But they have their own limits. I love hot weather. I don't like feeling like a perpetual melting stick of butter.
-
not really
-
I can be stuck inside working when it's wet and miserable out. Or I can be stuck inside working when its beautiful out.
-
Love it give me 30* c. Love the summer. It helps I lived 9 years in Australia.
-
I wouldn't say I hate it, just more so not a massive fan when it's hot, give me mild weather instead
-
I'ts only mid twenties here, this is quite nice, when it gets closer to 30 I'll be dying.
-
I'm fucking praying it doesn't get that high
-
-
I love it, but it makes me feel guilty for wanting to stay indoors on my computer and/or play games.
I can normally justify my computer habits to myself by saying "well the extra heat is warming up the house too, everyone wins!" but that lie goes right out the window during summer.
sigh guess I'll go join a gym or something....
-
The trick is to have a summer personality and a winter personality. Winter? I am brooding, dark, morbid, spooky. Summer? Grinning, half naked, shades, still creepy.
-
My only issue with the heat is that I work from home and my office is a converted coal shed with a flatroof.
There's loads of celutex insulation and it's warm enough in the Winter with me, my laptop, 2x external monitors and a NAS.
In the summer though, I just can't get the heat out of there it's already 25DegC and we're not in summer yet.
