I worked with a guy who wouldn't change from shorts to trousers until the temperature hit 0c. Not even like as a toxic masculinity thing. He just didn't see the point.
I was like that until my mid thirties. Now its around 10C that the switch happens. as long as my torso is warm I'm all good.

First year teaching in China, myself and some colleagues took the train up to Inner Mongolia for a holiday. While waiting in some line at the station, one of my students spots me and says hi.
She then realizes I’m wearing a T-shirt in fairly cold weather while she’s still wearing her coat, and asks “Aren’t you cold?”
I say “No, I’m Canadian.”
I’ll never forget the jaw-drop look she gave me. Still makes me laugh.
Bay area Californians whine about perfectly fine weather all the time.
yeah I love the bay area climate it's the best in the WORLD
but as a result everyone from there is terrified of temperatures over 90f or below 40f
All the worst temperatures are outside those ranges!

hey mr. g what are some of your fave reply alls? who are your alls
A rule for any cold climate is there must always be a shorts guy
Always
And based on my high school and university classes, that guy will always default to basketball shorts in -30 degree weather and somehow not get frostbite
First three paragraphs are behind the spoiler and only explain what he did in the broad sense. More detailed stories are in the article.
Every year, hundreds of thousands of anime fans flock to conventions, whether it's their mid-sized local con or planning a trek to Anime Expo. The reasons are just as varied as the attendees: some will spend early morning hours assembling racks and decoration for their artist alley booth, some will perfect their make-up and glue for the cosplay masquerade, and others will hop from fan panel to fan panel to learn about dubs lost to time or obscure appearances of hamburgers in anime.
For many, conventions are a weekend of fandom and freedom. Parents can drop off a small group of friends, assured that they'll get their coveted autographs and UFO catcher plushies. It's a place to laugh loudly, be unabashedly nerdy, and interact with the creators and actors in what's assumed as a safe environment. Adults and kids alike are there to check off their "must-sees" but while everyone is running off to the next panel or cosplay meet-up, who is making sure the star-struck, awkward teens are engaging with guests appropriately and vice versa? Where is the line for appropriate guest and attendee behavior and what should be done when it's crossed?
These questions came to the forefront of social media these last weeks as rumors about convention guests and staff interactions with minors stopped being whispered and instead were shouted. A Twitter thread posted on January 16 accused dub voice actor Vic Mignogna of homophobia, rude behavior, and most concerning, making unwanted physical advances on female con-goers. The thread quickly spread with over 4,000 retweets at the time of this writing and over 400 comments, many relaying their own negative experiences, including unwanted and unsolicited physical affection from the Fullmetal Alchemist voice actor. As with any claims involving a person with a moderate fan following, Mignogna's supporters were quick to attempt to discredit individuals' claims or at the very least dispute the voice actor's intentions behind kissing or hugging attendees unannounced.
Update on this:
Funimation has fired Vic Mignogna from Morose Mononokean (a show I have never heard of). I have to imagine his other roles such as Broly are also done because firing him from one show but keeping his big roles is such a disaster of a response that I would hope they would know better

Yeah it really sounds like there's only one "cold-weather shorts Ben". He gets around a lot.
Oh wow, from the way he was talking about it I figured that it was way colder than it was.
I was listening to it while walking outside in... ~3ish degrees Fahrenheit, I guess? I honestly don't understand that system.
Just remember below 0 is really cold and above 100 is really hot and you're good.
Most folks are most comfy somewhere between 62 and 75.

Partly because nobody wants to see my pasty legs (myself included) and partly because I have no idea what kind of shorts look good to even buy anyway.

To be fair, he was saying it was ~54 in the house, which is pretty cold for just waking up in your underwear!
Yeah 54 degrees as an indoor temperature is not good.
75 is a little warm for me though. You get much higher than that and I get uncomfortable very fast. Like 85 and I nope out back into my ac.
I usually leave my jacket off if it gets to about 48 or 52. And I never wear long sleeve shirts.
Really though everyone should make fun of me. My comfortable temperature range goes from like 45 degrees to like 65 or 70. It's a very narrow window.
I mean, I get why he wanted to get the heating system working, 10C is pretty chilly when you get out of the warmth of your bed
It's just that from the way he was talking about it I thought it was, I dunno, below freezing or something
You really don't want indoor temperatures to get below freezing, it fucks up the plumbing something fierce
“It was 55 degrees in my house!!!!”
“Oh my god could you see your breathe???”

I have gone from -40 to 40 back down to 0 in the span of 4 days

sure if you don't want to make hilarious jokes about how other people's weather is terrifying/adorable, I guess

I want to play RE2 now but I think I need some kind of buffer between the two
Like, we don't even like the sustained cold and snow, I definitely don't want to inflict that on others (well other than Molly who adores the snow)
Don't worry, there are tons of other Resident Evil games you could use for that
It's awful in both!
It's really good for me because I don't know how any of your weird America temperatures work but I have a good standby for "how cold is it in QC"
shut up Kelvin nerds, I know that's not even possible for you, GOD
Give Broly's lines to somebody from TeamFourStar, they've suffered more because of Broly than any other group of humans on the planet.
