Six months of every year being -40°C is a pretty compelling reason to want to be inside.

I live in the greatest state in America, New Jersey. We can hit 36+ in the summer with 100% humidity -16+(-?) in the winters, and this is exclusioning wet stuff. We can dislike the car machine without hating on gyms. And I don't like gyms either, but c'mon.

I translated the temps into world, so bear with me folks.

Agreed

We can hit 36+ in the summer with 100% humidity -16+(-?) in the winters….

Hey! Ho! You don’t live in New Jersey using that unit of measurement.

Still sus on where you live. Let everyone else do their own conversions; this is New Jersey. Taylor Ham.

Ha, Lemmy's softening me up, but you're right, Fs for us and Fs for everyone else too.

This won't do my credit any service, but I'll take a BEC or SEC on a poppy bagel every day over P/THEC. I'm really not big on that particular meat.

I'm from Central Jersey if that makes it better.

No, Central Jersey makes you everyone's enemy then! XD

Everyone knows central Jersey doesn’t exist
