Which is the best part of winter: the sun setting at 5pm every day, or it literally hurting when you go outside?

Pros of winter: you get to see snow, maybe
Cons of winter: literally every conceivable aspect of it. Being cold is the worst sensation. And no, clothing doesn't magically fix it.
- The opposite for me. Having an AC doesn't magically make me feel coler in the summer. I still have to go outside to pick up groceries or something and sweat like a pig.
  Oh, not to mention sweaty thighs and skin rashes, trouble walking...
  
  I don't really drink, but I definitely go beer shopping in summer. I don't know how common they are but around the US, you can find places with Beer Caves. A huge walk-in fridge with cases of beer. It's heaven.
  
  We don't have those around here. Just cool beer, that's it. A cold beer helps, but not that much.

  But the AC literally makes it cooler. If you don't feel cooler when it is actually cooler, something is wrong with your perception.
  
  It might be, IDK... I could definitely take heat when I was younger, now I just want the cold.
- Also, people never mention how expensive all that special clothing is. No, thanks, I'd rather not spend hundreds of dollars just to be able to step outside. Plus special equipment for the snow, etc. It's too much.
  
  Right? Everything about cold reminds me that humans are a tropical species. Just because we found a way to survive cold, doesn't mean we should. Why do we live so far from the equator these days?? Shit's miserable.
  
  lol have you tried not buying designer clothing? i literally just wear a department store wool base layer, a fluffy jacket, and a cloak made by cutting a recangle of some random fabric i bought at a crafts store, and it's great.
  if you can accept looking a bit medieval then it only has to cost like 50 bucks for the whole getup.
