A lot of people say that, but it does fuck all for my hands and face, and I'm still breathing in cold ass air.

I have heat retention issues, not heat rejection issues.

Perhaps the grossest feeling I've ever experienced was while I was stationed near Chicago during the winter and my nose hairs were freezing inside my nose, all while bundled up in as many layers as possible.

Fuck the cold; I'd rather be in the heat.

That being said, extreme heat is still miserable.

Not always, am Aussie grew up in, and still live in miserable humid heat, it's fucking terrible. Though our 3 days of 'winter' per year are rather nice

What's your preference between the two though? Not being a dick, just curious. I grew up pnw US. I'll take the cold any day of the week.

Cold, you can mitigate it much easier. On a serious note our winter months are great, shorts and t-shirt and it's just good temp all round, and cool enough at night for a blanket at times! But yeah the warm months are not a good thing!
