If you had to choose, would you prefer hot or cold

[Zantos]

If one day, the world would suddenly become either hot most of the time, or cold most of the time, which would you choose and why? I would choose cold since I have an easier time trying to stay warm then trying to stay cool.

Cold because i can wear more clothes/ put on weight / turn the heating up. Much more difficult to stay cool.

[Reeve]

Cold. I can always put more clothes on. Can't take off clothes indefinitely. Plus, much nicer to walk out of a cold outdoor area into a place with a roaring fire and a cup of hot cocoa than to walk from a broiling hot area outdoors into an air conditioned space.

Cold, because heat sucks.

[some guy]

Cold. Much easier to get warm than to get cool.

Cold.

If you can't wear a coat outside it's too hot.

[Puupi]

Cold of course.

[Midnax]

Cold. I can always put more clothes on. Can't take off clothes indefinitely.

My thoughts exactly

[TwoNineMarine]

Cold. I hate both. But can combat cold a bit better than I can the heat.

[Feali]

Cold because snow.

Hot as in between 21-25 degrees (Celsius) .

In whose world does 21-25C qualify as hot?

I live in a hot place. I usually set my AC to 87F. Once you body gets acclimated it's not so bad. You'll notice your skin get's incredibly hot, that's because your body made more blood and is currently running that blood just below the surface of your skin to cool you down.

It also get's really cold here. I set my heater to 65F unless I have company. Yeah I wear layers of clothes.

Not sure which I'd rather go for, hot or cold really.

Wow. I set my air conditioning to 67F. I run it like that pretty much all year.

Cold.

More oxygen in the air, snow, easier to stay warm than cool where I live and so on.

Hot for me is 29+ celsius and I just cannot live with that. TOPS 25 degrees celsius is my limit. Can handle temperatures below -20 celsius without a problem.

[Hawthorne Wipes]

Cold for sure. getting warm beside the fire and a couple of blankets after a tired day is one of the best sensations I can think about.
Theres something about cold that.. endurances you.
Hot does the opposite

[Zantos]

Hot as in between 21-25 degrees (Celsius) . No fucking way I tolerate 40 degrees...and no way I can stand minus 20 for too long

So..what defines hot or cold?

Cold- you see your breath or need a jacket.
Hot- You're sweating and water seems like a thing of the gods.

[Revi]

Definitely cold.

Cold.

When it's cold you can get a warm blanket and nice warm hot chocolate and get all comfy in your bed wrapped up.

When it's hot you get sweaty, you start itching, you have a cold shower which for the most part is unpleasant since you have to climatise, you get out and start sweating again. You open the window to draw in what little air there is flowing but 99% of the time it's just a recipe for bug infestation which you have to deal with which forces you to start running around trying to kill all the annoying wasps, bees and other flying things hovering around you + all the spiders crawling in, further building up the temperature. To add to that when trying to sleep you are forced to strip and lie on top of your covers and constantly switching your pillows because your body heat makes it unbearable to rest for 5 minutes.

Hot, because most of the tasty non-meat-type food requires above freezing temperatures to grow.

[IIamaKing]

Easier to heat an area artificially than to cool it. So cold.
