Hot, or cold?

So? How do you guys like your weather? Hot? or Cold?

For me, The colder, the better!

In fact, this is my kind of cold air:

But realistically, as much as I love cold air, I physically can't stand it: I'm too skinny. I don't have the fats that half of all Americans have to keep me warm.

I like it cold, but not quite freezing

Temperate. But given the choice of extreme's I'd say hot. More ways to cool off in summer than warm up in winter.

Though one could argue that you can put on more clothing than take off.

The winter sucks, period. The only good thing is the holidays and such.

I would prefer temperate, though if I had to choose between I'd go cold because it's easier to warm up. Plus, you get snow. ^_^

I'll take the cold of Mars to escape the lunacy of Earth, no matter how warm it is...

You're damn stupid for using Fahrenheit.

Though I wouldn't put it in such rude terms, he's right. Fahrenheit is only used by the U.S.; everyone else uses Celcius.

Thanks for reminding me...

Can a moderater add the equivalent celsius temps to the poll (without removing the fahrenheit temps, of course)?

Yea but I live in Canada, hanging out under a running garden hose is usually good enough on the hotter days.

Hardly an extreme then. :) But good point.

I have a problem with the warm weather. I've always loved the cold.

I like the cold way more than I like the hot. The way I see it, if you're cold, you can always put on more layers of clothing until you're not cold. If you're hot, and naked, there's very little recourse there for you other than to suffer in the heat.

I'd hardly call 50 degrees Farenheit to be any sort of Earthly temperature. That's the heart of winter around here!

Like cold, eh? No wonder you like Pluto.

The perfect temperature is between 80-85 degrees Farenheit :)

There's no point in Fahrenheit. C'mon, in Celcius its at least logical. Water is frozen in 0 degrees and boiling in 100 degrees.

There's no point in bashing other forms of measurents, so stop threadjacking, please. :mp5:

I think I like cooler over warmer... but the winter makes me feel down. :( I can't win!

I never liked celcius for this very reason. A difference of 10 degrees is like the comparing the surface of the sun, to the back of pluto.

Mmmmcold. Since I have a ice-lord fetish, I kind of *have* to like cold.

Mmmmm.

Cold is good, u can just snuggle up in bed and get warm again (preferably with a nice girl! ;) )

Up here in WI, we already get as much cold as normal humans can tolerate(it's about 0 degrees F here right now. Last January, the temp. got down to -30 w/ windchill. Cold enough for ya, yet?). So nothing REALLY cold for me. I like temps between 55 and 67 degrees F. Not too cold, not too hot.

I like it when it is hot, but not humid (as it often is in Nebraska). I hate cold weather, and where I live we at least don't have to deal with extremely cold weather until January-February, after all a couple days ago I could go outside with a short-sleeved shirt on and not even filled chilled.

As an ignorant American, I have to ask that you give me the relevant conversions so that I can copy/paste.

UP! I haven't talked to you in forever!

It's Fahrenheit temp - 32, all divided by 9, all multiplied by 5.

Or, even better:

Change the poll's title to this: "Hot, or cold? (Fahrenheit)/(Celsius)

Venuslike-hot (90+)/(32.2+)
Mercurylike-hot (75 - 90)/(23.9-32.2)
Earth/temperate (50 - 75)/(10-23.9)
Marslike-cold (0 - 50)/(-17.8 - 10)
Plutolike-cold (Below Zero)/(Below -17.8)
