      Proper cold winter with dry powdery snow is heaven on Earth.

      Too warm, wet winter with sleet and ice and no snow sucks donkey balls.

      I like winter. There are parts I don’t enjoy like shoveling or cleaning my car off but things are quieter and cozier. Snow is beautiful, clothing has more pockets, you can breathe like a dragon, things are quieter.

      I prefer winter too. See, in the summer, it’s too hot, and there’s only so many layers you can remove before you get the police called on you.

      But in the winter? No matter how cold, you can always just add extra layers!

        But then you enter a public building. The heat is cranked up to a thousand degrees. What are you gonna do, just always wear summer clothes underneath everything?

          I figure, even if I didn’t like the cold - and I do - for the most part, I’m probably only tolerating it from the car to whatever is the destination. That’s generally a pretty short walk - often a lot less than a minute - and I know most public buildings are, as you said, a thousand degrees.

          So during the winter I just wear long pants and short sleeves and endure whichever extreme wherever I must.
