    fwiw i find the saying “there is no bad weather, only bad clothing” (it rhymes in swedish) much better than “you aren’t made of sugar”. It’s less demeaning and actually tells you how to make weather bearable.

      Then that -35°C hits and all that goes out the window.

      I grew up there and damn it was cold sometimes.

      Now where I live, the coldest weeks are like -4/-8°C tops, with a little bit of icy rain. So easy to dress for 😋. Summer goes all the way up to 40°C though, that’s harder to accommodate for.

      Cheers.
