Cold dry weather is the best.

[Darvi]

Cold dry weather is the best.

This, or cool, wet weather. Anything as long as it isn't hot or (cold and wet). Brackets added for clarity.

[Yoink]

Actually, I never used to mind rain. Now that I think of it, it's more something that's been impressed on me by family members/parents. Also not going out in the rain is probably an excuse my lazy subconscious uses to get out of excercising. I did end up going for a run.
About weather, well, I used to much prefer cold places to warm, but after spending a few winters in a hotter climate, (and losing a lot of insulating fat ) I've lost my resistance to cold. Oh well, at least these days I don't melt in the heat.

On to more RAGE: Before I moved here, there was a long period (Around 2 to 3 years) where I never got sick. Ever. Even my asthma pretty much went away. This was just after I had lost a lot of weight, going from being seriously overweight to slightly underweight.
Now, after living here for a while and leading an incredibly unhealthy lifestyle, (compared to before, at least) I've put on weight again, have attacks of asthma pretty much at least once every day, and have become quite susceptible to colds.
It doesn't help that the sheer amount of motor traffic in this area makes going for a walk/run during daytime difficult, especially for antisocial old me. (Actually I rarely leave my house, if I can help it.) It's gotten to the point that I usually reserve a half-hour period from 11:30 to midnight for a run around the block.

So much this. All of it. No weather I dislike less than humid except hot and humid. It's really hot and humid here today as well, by the way. Thankfully there is at least a small breeze as well most of the time, or I would have gone insane. Got all doors and as many windows I can open to maximize blow-through.

I guess people without dry skin problems have an easier time of low humidity. I got a lot better as I got older, but as a kid my face was constantly dry and cracking. There was a weird abrasion around my mouth that lasted a year. And I still wake up in the middle of the night itching.


Screw low humidity.

Stepdad was being a dick this week. No idea why. My real dad suggested he ran out of painkillers, and it's probably true.

Yes. The whole damned thing is nonsense. Insurance really, really needs to be streamlined.

I read in the newspaper that a woman whose throat was slashed by her psychotic husband right in front of their children(she survived, but he, however, fled from the cops and got killed by a car) was denied by her insurance company for the $25,000 bill to clean up all the blood, because the throat-slashing was "intentional".

Even the Department of Finance said "Are you fucking kidding me?!" Specifically, they said "we can't comment on a specific case, but an innocent spouse shouldn't be punished for the guilty spouse".


In that same newspaper, I read that a lifeguard was fired for saving someone that was slightly off the beach property. Six other lifeguards protested, and they were immediately fired too. Can't wait to see people drowning like droves of lemmings on that beach.

100°F and humid here. And my room has terrible ventilation, only two small windows that don't allow much airflow, but plenty of whatever bugs are constantly biting me in my sleep.

Hm, i like medium temperatures, anywhere between 15 and 25 degrees celcius is fine.
Below its a bit cold, not very cold, and above is too warm for me.
Humidity isnt a problem in belgium, and i cant remember expiriencing anything else then medium humidity.

Dry weather kills me.  Dry skin.  Sore throats.  Bloody noses.  I wake up every morning with a painfully dry throat, unless it's really humid.  If it's really dry and I try to swallow without getting a drink first, my throat can stick shut.

Humidity + heat... depends on what I'm doing.  If I'm being active outside, I want it humid.  In dry, sunny heat, I will sunburn horribly in less than 5 minutes.  Humidity dampens the brutality of the sun a little bit.  I also don't like that I can feel myself drying out so rapidly.  I know that I'm still technically drying out in humid heat, but at least I can be consciously aware of it without having to feel the misery.

If I'm just lounging about, though, dry heat is definitely better.  No reason to feel as sticky as if I'd just run a marathon when I'm just sitting at my computer.

But cold is just better all-around.  The only downside to cold weather is it tends to be dry...

Man, not having a usable car sucks.

[scriver]

Perfect opportunity to build one, though.

[Nadaka]

I do have a truck for sale... but I think traveling literally across the entire country to do so wouldn't be the best idea.

Perfect opportunity to build one, though.

I've seriously considered building a totally electric car, but I don't have the money.

Scratch that, car is mostly usable. New doors will be on within a week.
