I wear shorts because my body saw the “sweat” in sweatpants and took it as a challenge for all pants.
If his legs had to be amputated would he just wear shorter shorts?
If his shorts always cover half his legs, how many amputations would it take before he has 0 leg?
I was tge opposite for like 30 years. Jeans in every weather. 1 degree C and working outdoors? Jeans. 42 degrees C and raining? The same jeans.
I’m the same but mostly because of health issues.
I live in country side and have some farm work to do, but because I’m allergic to grass and dandruff ( don’t know the exact word for english ) if I go out in short’s I will end up with legs full of red spots and itchy af.
When working with hayballs I literally need to have long sleeves and a mask to not have red spots on hands and not start to have problems breathing at times when my allergy is in full throthle at 30-40 celcius weather in summer.
The irony of being in countryside and having a farm but being allergic to what you work with.
I’m heavy and my calves are like rocks from supporting all this mass. Those bastards are working their ass off when I’m walking they’re often dripping with sweat. If it’s over ~5c it will look like I slogged through a shallow stream - my pants will be visually wet within no time at all.
I was diagnosed with leukemia a couple years ago and a funny moment during treatment was my toes getting cold for the first time relative to my body temperature. I’d never experienced that before - it blew my mind and I became such a baby about it. It was totally intolerable. I finally understood what all the women in my life complain about regarding cold feet. … Who knew?
I have lived in a cold climate area my whole life and have severe reynauds syndrome. It can be 100F and the second I touch an ice cube all of my fingers turn deathly pale. Nearly 100% of the time, no matter the temperature, I will have an extremity that has no blood flow. It is severe enough that it is physically debilitating. I can’t play in the snow with my kids for very long, or play guitar without running my hands under a hot tap. Right now I have a cheap box fan running on low, 10’ away, and four of my fingers have cut circulation. Because there is no blood in my fingers or toes, touching anything freezing cold feels like they are being stabbed. I’m also very prone to frostbite and have worried about losing my toes a few times due to it. I actually have little feeling in them and have lobbed of parts of my fingers off which can’t even slightly compare to the pain of grabbing a cold steering wheel. When I wash my hands the water has to be scalding hot and have accidentally caused others to scald themselves by forgetting to tell them.
My body though? Can’t handle anything above 75f. I’m comfortable in just boxers in 50F. I overheat in long sleeves so easily that I own 1 longsleeve shirt. I had to get the HVAC tech at my work to change the air exchangers so that my work area was 60F so I didnt sweat through my PPE.
Plus, mine is a lifelong curse unlike your wimpy little leukemia. I kid. I just wanted to complain a bit. Glad you beat the big C. I hope to never have that battle and hope it was your last.
I’m a school bus driver and I pick up many kids in Winter wearing only Summer clothes and no coats. What amuses me the most is how much energy they put into complaining about how cold it is. I guess that’s how they stay warm.
