Just think, for a good chunk of our year it's too cold for niggers to run around and burn shit. The cold north is and always will be a white man's country.

Yeah, "no great loss without some small gain."

Or, simply, pros and cons to everything.

A cloud's silver lining.

I'm a fair weather Canadian. I fucking hate winter even though ours are pretty mild compared to most of the country. I've worked up north, seen 60 below and worked in 45 below for 3 weeks one stretch, it's hard to explain. I don't know how you southern folks can handle 110+ degrees for months either.

You must be in south Ontario or something.

Gotta get use to it, and realize it gives us an advantage to invaders.

It's more work to cool off than it is to heat up.

I just get naked and swim in the pool.

It's easier (and cheaper) to warm up vs cool down. Sweaters work fine.

We dress for it. We tend to stay in when it's cold, sort of like you stay in during the heat of the summer. Bonus - no homeless camps. No mosquitoes either.
37°F here today, gonna be below zero by the weekend.

Appreciate that.

I guess you get used to it, but yeah, summers here are brutal.

And, don't give me none of your aggravation, I've had it with your discipline.

"I'd rather sweat than shiver." Said every transplanted yankee I ever met.

Are you White? Kidding. Kidding.

Cold weather is fine. The problem is when it prevents work getting done.

I can't take it man.

Dress for it and it's nice. Rain is another matter.

Me either. We are selling out this Spring and getting out. The cold sux but worse are the forest fires. Breathed smoke for over a month. It is lovely here lots of game, mountains and beauty. Too many months stuck inside due to whatever. Raised in the South and my blood is just too "thin". Husband too old to lay out in the snow fixing a truck and some of the other chores. Time to go.

Dress for it... At first it's intolerable, but you just get use to it

Im in Tx, Is it ever gonna get even remotely cold this year? Like others have said you can dress for the cold. If your naked here in the summer its still fuckin hot. I prefer the three weeks its a bit cold here.

No man, I hate all cold weather lol.

Yeah it's crazy here it is middle of December and all week it will be 80 degrees here in Houston.

It may depend on if you work inside or outside. I work outside.

True, yeah I put on roofs for almost 20 years, in the Texas sun.

Before that I was white collar.

I'm kind of schizoid.

There's this neat invention, called a coat, that keeps one warm in the Winter months when worn.

Y'all have Winter down there, don'tcha?

Well, um, uh, yeah last winter was the great Texas power outage and we froze for 3 days and stayed alive through Waffle House.
