Who gets chapped lips from a sunny day? Where are you, the fucking Sahara desert?
This happens pretty frequently for a lot of people, especially if it’s a super dry climate.
Life in a northern climate at this time of year, my dude. Already had to bust out the chapstick from how dry it’s been.
Chapped lips in the summer? I’ve only ever gotten chapped lips in winter.
Just live in the Mountain West - Colorado, Arizona, Utah. The air is so dry it actively mummifies you every day of the year.
Eh, I live in Utah and I also only get chapped lips in the winter. It sucked the first year when I moved here, but my body adapted.
I love the desert heat. Chapped lips aside it’s my dream.
The best chapstick is enough water.
“normoids” is really something.
You don’t have to lie out in the sun naked from dawn to dusk without water to enjoy a sunny day.
I love sunny day, but even more…
I LOVE THE RAINY NIGHT.
They forgot skin cancer
theyre lovin the D
I love all this and the fact that exposure to the sun can make my autoimmune disease worse and can actually do permanent damage to organs and could kill me if I get burnt bad enough. Got the diagnosis right after I got back into riding horses. -_-

Lmao. I’m considering doing a Dullahan costume next year for Halloween and using one of the horses for it lol
Chapped lips is in the winter
I nearly died from being out in the Sun too long, and yet as an adult I insist on lying out on the beach like a chicken leg on a grill (with water this time at least).
anon rawdogs sunlight, blames society

To be fair, exposing yourself to the sun is unsafe. During summer the rule is: Don’t go out into the sun. If you have to go into the sun, cover yourself with clothes. If you can’t cover yourself with clothes, wear sunscreen. And limit the sun exposure to an absolute minimum. There is no safe tan.
The basic two-step human respiratory process completely baffles anon. He regularly forgets whether he should inhale or exhale. Anon is well known for tripping over stray dust particles.
As someone who wears sun hoodies to avoid negative effects, I respect the evils of the sun.
That being said, people in the US need to learn acclimation. It does not need to be 15 degrees colder inside. In 2 weeks your body normalizes.
As someone who does not live in a climate controlled home but occasionally stays with people who do, I wholly disagree. I love being able to breathe and think rather than having to be in a place that’s just 7-10°F colder because of a lot of effort airing at the right times.
Yeah, idk what that guy is about, few months ago the outside temp was like 32°C and, because my apartment has crap insulation, the inside temp was either equal or higher. That was not fun and didn’t help with going outside at all.
I have this too. Some genius did not invest in window blinds on the outside.
By midday I can just open up everything and let the 32c air in because it already warmed up to that temperature.
I FUCKING LOVE PUTTING THE STINK GOOP ALL OVER MY BODY EVERY 15 MINUTES AND HAVING AN UNCOMFORTABLE CRUSTY CARAPACE SO I DON’T ACQUIRE CRAB DISEASE
are you walking around shirtless everywhere?
It’s hot bro
cannot relate, haven’t taken off a hoodie since 2018
you will be boiled in your own juices by the fire gods
And I will be a damn fine meal
Get a sun shirt, homie. Reflects the sun off your skin so you’re cooler, plus you don’t have to wear sunscreen.
YOU JUST NEED FANCIER STINK GOOP

For any good farm you have to prep, vitamin D farm is no exception.
Y’all are a bunch of lizard people, anon gets it. The sun is literally trying to kill you.
The sun is a deadly lazer
Not anymore, there’s a blanket
Solar Flares: Fuck everything in that general direction and fuck your blanket in particular as well.
So is oxygen, but you gotta keep breathing.
The sun at least also makes you happy.
Dihydrogen monoxide also tries to kill you
I would be much happier without it.
So is oxygen
Disingenuous nonsense. It’s basically impossible to encounter a harmful concentration of oxygen in day to day life, while harmful amounts of sunlight are commonplace.
A lack of sunlight also doesn’t kill you in less than ten minutes.
I’m talking about ROS, which you can’t overdose on in the course of a day, but which are damaging your DNA and therefore cause cancer.
Why are you so hostile?
Meanwhile, people who say they love cold weather:
“I like sweaters, coats and boots, bundling up, sitting inside by a fire with hot cocoa.”. Really sounds like they enjoy being warm, not cold after all.
So maybe “I like air conditioning, watching the sun from inside, the feeling of coming in out of the heat in the summer, a refreshing cold shower in the morning, being able to wear fashionable sunglasses and hats.”
Those people can speak for themselves. I like getting plastered then walking around shirtless in below freezing temps. Makes me feel alive.
Ah, a fellow man of culture.
I swear shorts and t-shirt until about 5 degrees C, love it.
Same, but I hate cold weather. It’s not because I’m uncomfortable, it’s because I hate all the things associated with cold weather:
- shoveling snow
- icy roads
- so many ads (Black Friday + Christmas)
The temperature itself is fine, and sometimes I’ll even shovel snow in shorts. It’s everything else that pisses me off.
I like feeling the cold around me while protecting my vitals from it.
As I’m sure you’ve heard and maybe even contemplated, I can generally warm myself up. It’s a lot harder to cool myself down, at least past a certain point.
I have the opposite problem, when it gets past a certain coldness I can’t warm up without an external heat source. Hot weather I can be cool IF I am in the shade with a breeze, grew up without AC in Florida so probably just adapted.
School kids here do have to do heat danger videos for athletics though, for some ungodly reason they do practices in the afternoons not before school and kids were dropping in the heat. It is dangerous like extreme cold is, I don’t go do yardwork when it’s the top of a summer day.
Was just saying that if people can say they “love the cold” because they like being warm, it’s no sillier to say you like the heat because you like cooling off.
Isn’t cooling off what going to the pool/beach is all about?
Late autumn repping the best temps, tho.
There’s more of a comfy-ness to being enveloped by warmth when its cold out.
Yeah, but that’s just a mindset. You can turn that mindset on in the Florida summers too. When you get in your car and it’s an oven until the AC cools it you just pretend you’re in a sauna, breathing that hot air from the coals. You’re sweating while you’re doing a job/project, you just pretend it’s like hot yoga.
A hot tub feels amazing. The heat can too when you decide it does. When you finally give into the heat and decide you’re just gonna be sweaty today, it feels great.
Solutions to being too cold - put on more layers, get a hot beverage, do some light exercise
Solutions to being too hot - get to some AC, splash water on yourself, take off layers
The problem is that the first set of solutions is generally more accessible and work-friendly. I can’t take off my shirt on a site visit for work (or even wear shorts, and being in damp sweaty clothes is miserable compared to being chilly and needing to warm up.
I love wearing 10kg of clothes just to stay warm while I’m outside
I literally do. Layers are so comfortable and safe feeling
I prefer being outside in cold weather. If I had my druthers I’d keep my house at 60 degrees in the winter and bundle up. I’ve lived in a house where I could wake up and see my breath in my own bedroom on especially cold days and it was glorious.
Ha! Well as much as I hate the cold, I hate the heater even more. Resist turning it on until it’s really too cold in long sleeves and a sweater. Air conditioner we keep at 78F, and it helps to keep the house from mold/mildew, improves air quality. Heater dries everything out and feels awful. We do set the heater to 60F, and don’t run it often.
Yeah, but I’m too poor for AC so the summer is all suffering. Climate change is making it worse and worse and I hate the whole world more and more.
Yeah I grew up before there was A/C all over, even in school didn’t have it until I was 12, and as bad as heat with no air conditioning is, it’s not as deadly as freezing weather with no heat. What do the homeless people do in cold places, do they just die in the winter? There is no season here where going outside in regular clothes would kill you, at least. Uncomfortable, sure.
But again, I think it’s some epigenetic adaptation, I really do run cool, and now my kids do too.
