    HOT!

    It's easier for me to cool down when it's hot outside than to warm up when it's cold outside. Yet another reason why I live in Houston.

    Post this exact thread in late July and the results will be dramatically different.

    Cold ANY day for me. You can put more layers on and be more comfortable.

    In the heat, legally you can only remove so many articles of clothing before being arrested, and you know what, its still hot as hell!

    Add to that the long-term effects:
    If frozen (too cold) : They maybe able to one day bring you back from the dead

    If too hot (burned) : You will spend eternity in a vase on the mantle

    While I'm okay with the cold in general, I absolutly <i>hate</i> it when it comes to riding my bicycle. Even cool weather takes an adjustment as you have a 20 mile per hour wind-chill factor automatically built in when you ride (plus however fast the wind is actually blowing). Oh, eventually you warm up and it's not so bad (even nice) but those first few miles just suck!

    Ugh, I hate winter.

    The summer humidity in Houston sucks. Voting for the cold is a no-brainer!

    Codl weather-

    It's a lot easier to put extra clothes on to go outside and get work done (or walking th edog, etc) than it is to sweat your b@lls off just by walking outside.

    Of course if it could be sunshine and 60-70 that would be perfect, but between super hot and super cold, I like it cold.

    Yes, I could be a pasty ****** person who gorges him/herself with pizza, fries, and burgers 24 hours a day and whose definition of exercise is:

    A. walking to the fridge to fill my disgusting body with more crap
    B. getting up off my lazy ass to find the remote control.

    That would be more of a wuss.

    Maybe, but whining about 40 degree temps is pretty wussy. :)

    Does your complex have a weight room with a treadmill?

    You can put on enough clothes to stay warm but you can't take off enough to stay cool.

    Yeah, but I've had bad experiences with treadmills in the past and can no longer use them. Psychological trauma can be a b****.
