What’s wrong with loving putting on snuggly warm clothing in winter? Not to mention that I love both warm inside and cold outside in winter.

When I was a child, I loved snow. The adults told me that when I had to start shoveling the walkway and driveway, my love would fade. It did not.

Then I was told that when I learned to drive, I would hate it. First snowstorm after I got my license, I instantly headed out to an empty parking lot to practice donuts. I’ve been caught in sudden storms and watched other cars slide off the road. I still love snow.

Then I was told that when I got a job and had to support a family that I’d hate snow. Yet this has come to pass, and I still squee like a child when snow starts. I long to take walks in it. I dream of sledding, or building snowmen, or throwing snowballs, even in my middle age, even if I can no longer run as I used to.

No, you will never take my love of winter from me. Summer heat, get thee behind me.

I hate driving in the snow and rain, but it has absolutely nothing to do with the weather.

[–] nuachtan@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

practice donuts

I believe you're looking for the words "whipping shitties"

What's wrong with enjoying winter from the comfort of indoors?
Tbh I love it outside too, at least when its snowy and not wet.

❌ hot girl summer

✅ cold bitch winter

[–] fenrasulfr@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

Yes I love winter and I love being outside during winter, I imagine I would have a whole other perspective if I couldn't afford to heat my home.

[–] DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago

Don't threaten me with a good time.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 7 points 6 days ago

I just got in from shoveling round one.

I'm thankful that it's cold when it snows, I love sledding with the kids.

But now that there was snow and snowmen and snowball fights, can it please be fucking summer now?

[–] Balldowern@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

I stand by the original statement - I love winter! If some people can't handle it, too bad.

As an adult I loved winter still. I could be outside, do stuff without suffering heart stroke, and I loved running in the snow with my trail running shoes for 13+ miles.

I now live in the southwest and man so I miss winter.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago

50cm of snow outside. Walking is only option to go anywhere. Even if its a longer walk to take side streets, its a nice walk to have once a year. Going to the beaches in the south next week, and the escape great too, but fresh snow on a quiet walk is an awesome experience.

[–] PumpkinSkink@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

While I love cozy warm bed, I will in fact be going for a walk in the worst part of the big scary blizzard purely for fun.

[–] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 1 points 6 days ago

Agreed. I love the snow

[–] spacesatan@leminal.space 4 points 6 days ago

I agree but also the only times I've gone camping that I've really loved and love looking back on were in winter. Something about a snow blanketed forest just can't be touched.

Not worth it at the end of the day and I'm glad I moved somewhere that almost never snows but still.

[–] xeekei@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 days ago

I have to work outside and I always have to bite my tongue when office workers go all "I love winter".

I live in SoCal, the heat is going to get in and cook me regardless in the summer, I can at least fight the cold in the winter. Note the A/C and heater are both off regardless.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I literally just came back from a 3 hour walk outside XD

32°F (0°C) feels great =D

[–] Biffsbraincell@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 days ago

10°F here. Only a 45 minute walk but it was glorious.

I took from one of my gloves to play around with some snow, and my hand was quickly cold and stiff, but I put it back on and kept walking. 5 minutes later it was toasty warm. The joys of good clothing and body heat.

I was playing in the NYC snow with my kid until my face was numb

[–] Fmstrat@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

I went on a hike this weekend in -7F. And last week I had ice cream outside in 13F.

[–] Ach@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

I love winter so much I pollute as much as I can to speed run though global warming and reach the inevitible ice age after.
