man i wish it was summer already

I'm most cozy at an air temp of like 30°C :( It barely ever gets this hot here in Germany

I would hardly run the AC if the hottest it got in summertime in Oklahoma City was 90°F. But last year, we had several instances where it got up to 100 or 105. And the dew point was 70-75 degrees all summer. So your sweat hardly evaporates. I run my AC all day to keep it 80 degrees and swampy indoors.

I would love to redo my whole house's HVAC system where one smallish central unit cools the kitchen and living room and each of the bedrooms have their own ductless mini split. This is one way to achieve zoning. There's no reason to cool the entire house to 65 degrees if I'm about to be asleep in the bedroom for the next 8 hours. There's no reason to try to keep the whole house cool when I'm about to spend my day in my home office. Just cool the room I'm in and leave the rest alone.

I could also do window units, but for some reason, my wife is vehemently opposed to them. Her parents just put window units in all their bedrooms and one in their living room. They don't use the central unit anymore. They only cool the room they're in right now, and their power bills went from $400 to $150 in summer. They paid for themselves in one season.

I live in Florida, what's winter?

I'm more of a Spring/Fall enjoyer, but I like winter too. Summer I just turn on a bunch of fans because AC is expensive AF and has a chonky carbon footprint

Autumn's really where it is at. Best season.

Nah, #teamsummer here. I struggle so much in the winter. I either the blanket is too thick and I'm warm but at the cost of waking up drenched it sweat or it's too thin and I have a hard time falling asleep because it's chilly. There's just no blanket that's breathable and isolates well. In the summer I can just use a thin cotton bed sheet and sleep with the window open. Nights like this are one of my favorite things and I love falling asleep to the sound of crickets chirping outside.

i love wearing my slutty clothes tho

Ppl acting like it's winter or summer when autumn and spring are right there

Another reason would be you can't use heavier blankets in summer

You let your blanket hang off like that?? You monster!

in exchange for almost never running it during the day: i turn my A/C down to like 68 F overnight and sleep like a baby.

Me only being able to sleep while blasting the AC to the point where it's cold enough that I need a blanket: Pathetic

Sorry I don‘t spend enough time sleeping to actually care

I'm so cold all the time. I think there's something wrong with me. I'm comfortable in the blazing heat when everyone else is complaining.

My blood pressure and heartrate are always low, so I suspect that may be related.

I hate the heat so much.

Opening the windows during sleep sucks in winter tho. That's the only downgrade for me

Don't forget the forest fire smoke!

reasons #3742, #3755 and #6278 of why i hate summer.
