This meme brought to you by a child in California that doesn't know what real winter is. It was 20 something here last night and this dipshit thinks a sweater is gonna keep you alive though that.

20 something

Sweater wont keep you alive

Wait till you hear about the latest tech: two sweaters!

To be fair, you could wear winter gear 24/7. I lived like that for a bit. The real reasons we need heating are structural decay and pets. Pipes burst below 55 and pets don't do well below 65.

There are real reasons to heat your house besides just wanting to be warm.

Must be nice living somewhere where you don't even know that pipes can freeze.

It's gonna get down to -30°C this week, I'll turn the heat off and just throw on the good ol' toque and a sweater and report back, assuming I still have fingers.

THAT'S VERY COLD

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Damn. It's only 4 degrees for me, but my room still gets cold if I don't have the heater on max because some moron decided that an entire fucking wall in my room has to be window.

[–] [email protected] 63 points 2 days ago (11 children)

Same here.

But there is middle-ground here. My wife came from a very temperate country. She wants the thermostat set at like, 26.

I'd be happy to have it at 17 and wear sleeves indoors. 9 degrees thermostat difference makes a hell of a dent in the utility bill.

You can't put sweaters on pets

You need to have one room You can heat if needed to keep the pet in if it's going to get cold

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Zonal heating what what. My home office is the cat office during the day.

You can’t put sweaters on pets

I know many retirees who disagree.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I mean, they have a built-in sweater. If they got really cold you'd see them cuddle up in a blanket, on a bed, or close to a person. Either way I bet you'd be more risking your pipes freezing than harming your pets.

Must be fun not to have any sensitivity issues and also live somewhere so south that a sweater is enough.

If I'm spending 10 minutes walking between buildings and then an hour sitting in them I'd rather be comfortable for the longer amount of time.

I live in a relatively warm part of Canada and let me tell you a sweater alone is not enough 😭
There are plenty of places in the USA Midwest and Europe that get colder.

Except for baby, kids, convalescente people, handicap people, eldery, and people with a very cold floor and wall that offset the overall room temperature.
This is just extrastrong ableism.

I won't go into detail because it's personal and a bit gross, but adding on layers doesn't always work for me due to a disability. I just become even more uncomfortable, and my extremities are still in pain...
