Rosbjerg Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 We have no A/C, so hot weather makes any living above 30 degrees celsius impossible. However, we have central heating (i have experienced -40 degrees celsius btw) which makes it comfortable to be inside. Besides, if you're outside in the cold, you can always add another layer of clothes in order to keep warm. In hot weather, you strip all your clothes, but then it is of no use, you're litterally boiling up with no where to go. No thank you. Most nothern europeans don't know how to handle warm weather - during the day we open up all windows and then proceed to wonder why it's like a frying pan inside in the evening - if we instead open the windows, but closed the shutters, we could get the breeze but not all the warmth, which would make a pleasent temperature in the evening. And the most foolish thing to do when it's 35+ is to take your clothes off - it's much more comfortable to put on 2 layers which are long and very thin. Much like the Indians and Pakistani people do. The thing is the sun and wind warms your skin if you take your clothes off, which makes it feel much more hot than it is. Fortune favors the bald.

Trenitay Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I'm glad I live in Western Washington. None of these cold or heat problems of Australia and Oklahoma.

Gfted1 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I love the heat, the hotter the better. I have fond memories of growing up in Florida where you wear the humidity like a coat and just the exertion of drying yourself from a shower causes you to sweat. Lived a few years in Vegas and while it is technically hotter then Florida, its a dry heat. Kinda makes you squint, breath through your mouth and burn yourself on the car seat when you get in but nothing like sweet oppressive 95% humidity. Oh yeah, right now its 28F. Gogo Chicago!

Kaftan Barlast Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 (i have experienced -40 degrees celsius btw) That's just horrible. The central heating system in my parents house way up north have dual extra backup systems in case of extreme cold, and they do get used several times each winter. And my dad installed a wood stove that uses air from outside so that no already heated indoor air gets flushed out the chimney. I had the doubtful pleasure of moving about 3 tons of firewood from the lorry to our shed so we could last without electricity. Sweden rules.

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I like to think my -30C is worse. Or at least deadlier. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons.

Calax Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 In all seriousness, Can somebody please convert this to Fahrenheit? YOU'RE the one with the weird unit system, you convert it. Actually it's a german system, 100F is his wifes temp (when she was menstruating so she was hotter than normal), and 0 is the coldest day in his village. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

Humodour Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 It's supposed to be the coldest month in Denmark, and it's barely chilly. What is 'barely chilly'? To me 'barely chilly' is like 15 to 20 Celsius. Chilly is 10 to 15 and freezing is below 10. It's 20 Celsius outside here atm, although my room is 30 C because of stored heat.

Rosbjerg Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Celcius makes sense - 0 is freezing 100 is boiling.. and Farenheit From wiki: "The zero point is determined by placing the thermometer in a mixture of ice, water, and ammonium chloride, a salt. This is a type of frigorific mixture. The mixture automatically stabilizes its temperature at 0 Fortune favors the bald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trenitay Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Logic has nothing to do with it. Humans aren't logical. We should go with the system that matches human behavior.

Gorgon Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) It's because you don't have any feeling for what the increments feel like. Minus degrees : bloody cold. 0-10 cold 11-14 slightly chilly. 15-19 normal to hot. 20-25 hot to very hot. 30+ uncomfortably hot, or just right for lounging all day on the beach.

Actually, Fahrenheit is a pretty silly system and choosing it because it's not logical is an even sillier reason. There's a reason America is basically the only country in the world still using it (and even then only for non-technical use). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosbjerg Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 If we could only convince the English to drive on right side, the Americans to use the metric system and Celcius calculations and all the other odd balls to fall in line.. maybe.. just maybe.. we could finally have peace on Earth.

Gorgon Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Maybe you just have a good treshold for cold? Because I was out walking today and it felt pretty cold to me. I'm insulated, like a seal, by virtue of my spare tire around the waist, and I also have a high tolerance for cold. Heat is definitely worse, it affects your ability to think straight.
