[@beachbum0014]

Yep, I'm the same way. As soon as it gets into the 50-59 F temperature range, my fingers and toes start to go white and numb. My nose and ears start to turn red, as well. It happens to my mom, but not the rest of my immediate family so I guess I inherited that from her, haha.

[@theultimateninja]

Not saying I hate fat people, but they're not my fave at this time of year fore that sole reason. Its cold dammit!

[@MJ-cq6gz]

When I was in high school I was very thin and cold all of the time. As an adult I've gained quite a bit of weight, and now I'm very warm all the time.

im always cold especially my hands and feet. but at night when im sleeping my body heat increases dramatically . i do martial arts so im pretty fit and i eat so healthy i shouldn't be this cold T_T

Whelp, that explains it. 1.low BMI (~18.8) 2.don't work out much 3.feel lonely/am usually isolated from others.

same here for the lonely part ... u are not the only one mate .. but i like it its better less Bullshit to deal with

18.8 is in the normal him range, under 18.5 is low.

[@messianic_scam]

It has nothing to do with bmi

[@WhitneyDahlin]

eating disorders also cause extreme feelings of cold even in very warm weather

[@chiara6942]

This is so true even though recovering it stays so cold😕

[@altheamermerosie6135]

:( sadly i tried this and that but didn't got changes

[@imissedthejoke1276]

that's because fasting slows your metabolism. slow metabolism causes sensitivity with cold

[@yodelissosa7791]

Is that still true with stress eating??

[@SpiralBreeze]

I'm over weight and always freezing. I wish my fat would do its job, my boobs are especially cold.

[@LunarisRuin]

what the hell lol frozen boobs haha

[@eveking6289]

I understand your pain

[@Ayveh]

It usually has to do with bad blood circulation, A good massage from a massgae therapist could help, might want to try that out.

[@kramoh]

Spiral Breeze I'm so sone

[@windandfire22]

Spiral Breeze that's because there are different types of fat. Two of these are WHITE FAT ( found in superficial layers of the body and sometimes in organs, which is bad news) and BROWN FAT responsible or regulating heat. Children have higher amounts of brown fat than adults, also explaining why older people feel colder. Overweight people usually are high on white fat which serves no purpose other than stored energy.

[@Lkonae]

I identify as male yet I'm colder than most people. I am triggered.

[@immcguyver07]

i just identify as a unicorn. Gender is irrelevant to me.

[@JamesJon1187]

Here's a life hack. Next time you feel cold, change your identity from male to a warm stove heater until you feel warm again!

[@PKPK-rr3rs]

I never feel cold, I once went hunting for about five hours during a winter storm, and I only wore a sweatshirt. I don't know why, but I never get cold. I actually overheat, I cannot stand tropical climates.

[@melTiceTiger]

As someone with a long family history of Raynaud's syndrome (every female on my moms side has had it), I can tell you that I'm always cold. Look it up. If you're always cold spite being a physically active and healthy person, you may also have it. It basically means you have terrible circulation in your extremities by genetic default. It also means that lucky people like me are more susceptible to things like hypothermia or heat stroke. Yay.

[@kd8663]

This is why my lovely husband and I sleep in separate rooms. We're still in the "honeymoon phase" but at the end of the day, he needs to be well rested for work and I need rest because of a few medical problems,. He needs the AC on and barely any blankets when I need a few blankets. So he comes into my room for cuddle and "stuff" until I fall asleep, then goes to his own futon, which he swears is more comfortable anyway. It works.

[@MarcusSpetim]

So why are some people always hot?

[@BrianPvanOers]

I'm born that way.

[@ngzbblax]

[@Monna7777777]

im alweys hot. and my friends ask how can i be so warm. so i would want to know.

[@realmichaelteo]

Iodine deficiency. It's closely related to the thyroid and one of the signs/symptoms is low tolerance to cold. Since supplementing with iodine I barely feel the cold in the winter. I used to start feeling cold around 20˚C (68˚F), now I usually wear t-shirts till it gets to below 10˚C (50˚F)

[@Werevampiwolf]

When I get my temperature taken (even by doctors), I tend to average about 96.5 degrees. When I feel like I have a fever, I'm often around 98.5. Interestingly, both my father and I usually feel hot, and my mother and sister are usually cold.

[@kaygarcia3077]

So your boyfriend should always hold your hand and give you plenty of hugs ^^ Romantic Science.

[@Orsbore]

I had a stroke, and my right side no longer feels temperature properly. The nerves are still sending signals but the part of my brain that interpreters the signals is dead. Another part of my brain takes over, and everything feels like it's about 92 degrees. So. I'm always hot.

[@RBuckminsterFuller]

That's pretty interesting. Hope you don't mind me asking, but do you have any other impaired functions?

[@RoScFan]

How did you feel when you got the stroke? Physically and emotionally. Did you panic?

[@_MessyJessy]

RBuckminsterFuller My mom had a stroke a few years ago and while she came out of it pretty well she has lost a sense of spice/taste. So when she makes food it is always super spicy.

[@Orsbore]

RBuckminsterFuller Yes, I don't feel pain on my right side. Actually, it feels like tickling in a way. It feels good when it's a small amount, but when it's stronger it feels bad, not as bad as pain, but bad.

[@Orsbore]

RoScFan I had a brain stem stroke, which is rare. My thinking remained okay. I didn't panic. I even looked on my computer to find out what was wrong with me. I kept falling to the right. I could sit up, and if I didn't hold myself, I'd fall over. I called an ambulance. I crawled downstairs and outside, and waited for it.

[@gissy4life]

Also, more women have hypothyroidism, which a symptom is, making you feel colder.

[@sinroyal7351]

I'm a guy with hypothyroidism, and I'm hot all the time. It's frustrating.

[@gissy4life]

Jess Atteberry Being hot is a symptom of hyperthyroidism. It's possible to have symptoms from either hypo- or hyperthyroidism. I can recommend you a book of how to heal and there is a chapter on hypothyroidism. The recommendations are all natural, so it's worth a try.

[@MrJbr5]

could you recommend it to me please? I got sick from hypothyroidism in the beggining of the year and the doctors say, there isnt a cure, what i know that isnt true.

[@stevedryden803]

I have hypothyroidism, but after i was put in medication, i felt no warmer

[@GenerationX1984]

Women are always cold except when pregnant and going through menopause. In those stages they have hot flashes. Being cold all the time caught up with them.

[@Cassibales123]

Chris Nilsson I'm always hot. I wish I was colder.

[@asrr62]

hot flashes are the best. i used to get them.

[@Spendomaniac]

Why do you say hot flashes? It's hot flushes. To flush means the skin to redden and become hot where as flash means a sudden bright light or to show your, lets say 'intimate parts'. I suppose if menopausal women are extremely good looking and prone to wandering around exposing themselves to all and sundry then it could well be called a hot flash.

[@theanemicproblematicvegan7998]

they're called hot flashes because they come and go super fast, like flashes. menopausal women can go from normal to sweating hot and to normal again in very lttle time.

[@motherintoronto]

What? No hot flashes in pregnancy. Yes, women are warmer during pregnancy, but it doesn't come with hot flashes.

[@uhohhotdog]

I'm always cold even after gaining bunch of weight. Anything below 80F is cold to me.

[@dzarko55]

I am always as cold as I can get. I can't stand heat, so I always keep my window open, even during the winter. Probably because I'm naturally hot. To the point where I cannot, for the life of me, understand why people go to southern countries. Oh, and by the way, I live in the Finnmark area. Geographically, that's about as far north as you can get in Europe without going to Siberia.

[@Dragondude2525]

See, I live in Southern Ontario, the furthest south point in all of Canada. we get summers that are in the high 30's and feel hotter with the humidity, which we usually have at 80% or higher in the summer, and winters that can be as low as -30 with the wind chill. I usually like it at around 20-25 degrees myself here because when it gets hotter its usually due to the humidity and that just is terrible on me, but no matter the weather, my feet are always frozen!

[@dzarko55]

Dragondude2525 Well, the sothernmost part of canada is at the same latitude as Mongolia, Kazakhstan and France. so... It's not that surprising to have high temperatures. Cold temperatures aren't surprising either; it's quite far inland.

[@Dragondude2525]

dzarko55 it is quite far inland but we are in-between the largest lakes in the world, so its kinda half and half. by the way is your picture Carl Sagan?

[@dzarko55]

Dragondude2525 Yup.

[@crazyDave590]

I was born in august in the middle of north Carolina so its usually between 90 and 100 and I cant stand anything above 80

[@cyndasaur4194]

I'm almost always hot and I can take pretty much any level of cold. Love it.

[@LambentLark]

I live in Alaska. I always find it odd how much warmer 30 degrees feels in spring compared to fall. I think people need to harden off come winter. Things like plenty of sleep, physical activity, along with dressing for the temp and time exposed, you can be toasty warm. As long as your body doesn't become too exhausted, then your only hope of feeling warm is a big meal, hot banjas, and a good night sleep.

[@kadekagusambara2212]

I'm interested.. Please elaborate

[@mistiepartin7720]

I found this especially interesting due to the changes I've undergone the last five or so years. I have Crohn's Disease and spent well over a decade severely underweight because we couldn't control it at all. From age 19 to around 33, I went from weighing 108 down to 71 then gradually up to 84 pounds. When I was underweight, I was constantly cold while others around me were comfortable. Once I finally went into remission, my body began to pack on weight, which people with Crohn's tend to do. In the last five or so years (I'll be 43 in April) I've noticed it takes a lot lower temps to make me cold. Now going through hot flashes, I haven't even used a heater once this winter! In fact, I've only turned off my air conditioner a handful of times and only, at most, a couple of hours at a time. I'd love to know if others are like me in this instance. Hmmm.

[@ohgeethanks]

This was really interesting! Thanks for the vid.

[@scientificallyobsessed938]

I'm always neither. Whenever someone complains about the room temperature, I tend to find the room temperature feels perfectly fine. I'm a woman, 5'0", 105 lbs and I prefer colder temperatures. The cold actually does not affect me. I can't sleep unless the room is cold, and I will achieve that by either opening the window or having a fan at full blast. I can walk around in minimal clothing in snow and feel quite fine. I have always been like this. I remember as a child playing outside with my friends in the freezing cold without a coat or sweater and not feeling bothered. I happen to prefer winter and cold weather. The heat is what I cannot tolerate. I can't stand summer or being directly under the sun.

[@lukejohnson6415]

105 lbs fatty

[@abcdefgold]

she has a BMI of 20.2, that's on the low (closer to underweight) end of 'Healthy Weight' on the scale

[@WilliamMerzlak]

Anything below 25C (78F) is freezing for me. I have to sport a sweater or jacket. Sometimes even gloves if it's windy. Meanwhile everyone around me are in shorts and a shirt. I'm a 26 year old guy, but I bike regularly and have a BMI of 20.

[@CremeCheesus]

William Merzlak Haha, meanwhile, I exercise like crazy and find anything above 25C to be too hot (and I live in fucking Queensland of all places)

[@thefurrybastard1964]

I find that I tend to adapt to temperature extremes rapidly. Might explain why I love the summer *and* the winter time.

[@WilliamMerzlak]

larissaj No I haven't. I honestly wasn't aware potassium could affect temperature regulation throughout the body.The only prominent source of potassium I get is from bananas and then multivitamins which the body never absorbs all of what is listed.

[@loot6]

Thyroid issues...

[@Naomyeezz]

William Merzlak I really hope you don't live in Canada. I hate winter but wow, cold below 25C?

[@DavidWiseFAN199]

I'm actually cold in 60 degree weather... People make fun of me because I wear a sweatshirt until the humidity is "just right" for me to actually want to take it off. But I get cold easily. I am Female by the way, could explain much. But I exercise the heck out of my body, and am finally building some guns. I am just always cold for the most part, and I don't dare remove my sweatshirt unless it's 80 or above. Right now in my apartment I'm freezing cold and the max temp it is in here right now is... 65 - some where around there. I have no clue if it has to do with one of the facts that I'm dark skinned, I was born in Texas (a much warmer climate and am not used to NY weather... still!), I am short for my age 4' 11'' and 24 and still looking like a child *groans*, or because I have an enlarged thyroid. But that last one makes no sense because my levels are always fine. My Thyroid is just fat naturally. So yeah, I'm gonna go with I sweat a lot more because I have a lot more sweat pores than lighter skin people because of my ancestry and how much I pool from one side of the gene pool... I'm cold because I'm black. SOLVED.

[@toneysebits8458]

Dark skin and light skin have no real difference in the amount of pores or the amount of sweat. It solely depends on you and your environment. The thyroid I believe is where the body does things regarding body temperature. Might have some other issue with it if your thyroid is abnormal. Its not because you're black.

[@DavidWiseFAN199]

Toney Sebits You're probably right.

[@toneysebits8458]

I could be wrong too.

[@aftermidnight5819]

My hands and feet randomly get cold often, but my upper body tends to be lika a radiator. Especially at night. I wonder why, because it's really annoying. And if I do get cold I'm usually still cold like 3 hours after getting inside with blankets and stuff. It's so annoying. Usually feels like the cold comes from inside though, which is weird.

[@XRay22AW]

perception is powerful AF. I can stand outside in a snowstorm during a football game on the sideline with nothing but football pads and tights on, but let someone open my living room window....

[@abrahamchapman]

One thing they forgot to mention is that about four out of five women are iron deficient. Iron is essential for the processing of energy, so that just might have a role in the reduced temperatures of women's bodies.

[@Suriner1]

I'm always hot, but for different reasons. ;)

[@QuiescentEntropy]

I know what you did there 😂😜😄😄😂

[@iamthefirsttosecond]

Ugh. An informative scientific show viewed ALL over the world using Fahrenheit!?? Really!?

[@notquitenil]

To be fair, Fahrenheit is a much better metric for describing personal comfort level than Celsius, as it has a wider range of degrees in the habitable zone for humans. While the Metric system should be used universally for any scientific measurements and studies, using Fahrenheit isn't something we should get rid of purely for the sake of accepting the Metric system.

[@aidanallen1976]

That argument for fahrenheit is complete bullshit. There are things called decimals, which are in between whole numbers, so there are an equally infinite number of temperatures for both forms of measurement.

[@notquitenil]

Perhaps it's just because I've grown up with Fahrenheit as my weather reading, but to me it seems like it'd be a bit cumbersome to use decimals to describe the temperature outside. It somehow seems to me that it'd be more simple to tell someone that its 55° than 12.7° if I want to convey how it feels outside. Though, if it were for the sake of kickstarting our asses into using the Metric system here in the states, I don't think I'd mind terribly much if we ditched Fahrenheit for good.

[@hanseidottersauger5663]

Well, you also have to mention that no one will say "12.7°C" in order to tell someone how warm it is outside. You wouldn't be able to say it that exact; normally you would say something like 13°. Also a difference of 1°C equals to 1,8°F. So that's not "such" a big difference. Telling something in .5°C segments will be more exact than in 1°F sections.

[@thehighestkite8490]

AMERICU"""AAA FUK YEAAAAHH

[@jenot7164]

I'm always cold. Only when I fall asleep I warm up.

[@awetistic5295]

I actually wonder if there is a disease that makes me freeze so easily. It's not because I am a woman or I'm skinny, I know nobody that's so sensitive to cold, especially when I'm just sitting. When my coworkers were already wearing shirts, I still needed several layers of clothing (like warm leggins under a Jeans + sports underwear that keeps you warm + thin pullover + think pullover) and would still freeze with the window open. I wonder if if a body can be unable to "store" heat or if I'm just overly sensitive and that's why freezing feels like pain to me.

[@awetistic5295]

@BanquetOfTheLeviathan I'm from Germany and have since found out that my hypersensitivity to cold is most likely linked to my EDS. But I agree 100%. When I visited the USA, I was honestly shocked by how cold it was in every single store, felt like a freezer to me. That was in fall time. They still do this in winter? That's insane.

[@ziljin]

I do feel colder as I get older. I'm skinnyfat. So maybe that's why my core is always warm but extremeties are so cold.

[@lucaswvargas3826]

That's interesting! When I lived in a powerless RV I had no option but to focus on the cold environment. I had nobody to uplift my mood to feel warm. However, in that situation I noticed patterns of clear thinking. I woke up every morning knowing what I needed to accomplish before another cold cold evening. The Human body is amazing.

[@animewasamistake6148]

I found an easter egg in five nights at freddys. In your office there is a poster in the left side. Try to tap on freddys nose and you will come across a cute honking noise.TRY IT!!

[@TTTristan1]

If temperature is bellow 70 degrees my fingers freeze. And I'm a 250 pound guy... Darn you restricting blood vessels.

[@LSpiro]

After surgery a few years ago my body temperature lowered by around 1 degree Celsius, making it much harder for me to feel cold. My friends have become accustomed to bringing coats to my room in summer as I typically crank the air conditioner down to 18 degrees Celsius, and every winter everyone asks me, “aren’t you cold?”, while I go out without a coat etc. 1 degree makes a big difference.

[@mamneo2]

If your body temperature was reduced on average 1°C everytime, your body would work more inneficiently and you should be more affected by cold than regular people. 🤔

[@killerfluffy2674]

Almost always hot. Here I am now where it was 12 degrees today and I was in shorts and a t-shirt, while my friends are in winter coats freezing their asses off.

[@argoneonoble]

I am very warm. I'm the last to put a jacket on. The a/c is always blasting cold in my car that my passengers will comment, and I am female, have lower body fat than the average, and have s body temp under 98 degrees. I usually measure 97.8.

[@kimoykalinago4154]

Just curious does the climate your born in, or come from affect your core temperature? I'm born in the Caribbean but I've been in the UK since I was like 3 (now 27) but I don't feel like i've EVER acclimatised to the colder climate. The cold even when people say it's mild im freezing and I regularly wear double layers through autmn, winter up until spring. On the other hand I have absolutely no problem being in extreme hot temperatures I went to Spain and was wearing full length chinos and a long sleeve shirt and I was fine..

[@kimoykalinago4154]

DNews

[@50shadesofcerakote]

ive wondered that too, i was born during a blizzard in pennsylvania, and all the winter babies i know of can walk outside when its snowing wearing short sleeve T-shirts and shorts. when i went to alaska thats all we wore while these people we met from california were freezing the entire trip. i even snowboard regularly wearing a T-shirt and shorts. am i just crazy or what? DNews

[@micahphilson]

maybe it's your genetics. I'm just like 333keb. I wear t-shirts and shorts in sub 0 and snow. But I was born in late May in Nebraska, which is usually about 85 to 90. Plus, Nebraska is weird. One of the very few places on earth with such varied temperatures. We go from -10 easily and -25 wind chill every winter to over 100, over 110 on bad weeks. I love extreme cold and heat, so I love it here. I love dry heat, but humidity kills me.

[@kimoykalinago4154]

Micah Philson ive always wondered it would be nice to get a definitive answer instead of just thinking i'm weird lol

[@50shadesofcerakote]

Micah Philson dude im the same! pennsylvania summers are brutal. 100-110 degrees with 90% humidity. you walk outside, instant sweating and youre choking on air cause its so heavy.

[@SherwoodSpirit]

The company I work for keeps the temp WAY too cold. Our heating/cooling system blows constantly, which also creates a wind chill. I don't know who in the company has decided that we all need to sit for 9 hours a day in 68 degrees with howling wind blowing on us. The only coworkers who aren't wearing coats are the two women who are in menopause. And they're all like, "AHHHHH, this is GREAT!" haha

[@AndreeaWest]

I've always had cold feet and hands. Sometimes in winter I don't even feel that my feet are almost "frozen" until I get in the house.

[@MakeMeThinkAgain]

This is such a complicated subject. My normal body temp varies from 96-98, I feel comfortable when the temp outside or in a room is down to 61, and I get hot very quickly when exercising even though I'm in good shape and reasonably lean.

[@synneandersson804]

Hey Trace! Would you mind converting the temperatures to Celsius (showing both Fahrenheit and Celsius) when you're doing videos like this? Loved the vid as always! xx

[@Toastmaster_5000]

They did.... he said the temperature in farenheit and wrote it in Celsius

[@synneandersson804]

Peter Schmidt How did I miss that?? Haha thanks! I guess this is my cue to go get some sleep..

[@cheekychip7954]

I'm never cold.While everyone else wears a jacket in school i'm the only person without one.

[@DragonJewel4]

i always notice when a body is colder than mine but that person wouldnt believe me saying that mine is colder

[@axon2405]

there are people sitting in class with their winterjackets on, whilst I in my T-shirt try to open a window without them or the heat killing me.

[@emmarina3525]

I'm a skinny person that has been destined to sit right in the line of fire of a pretty strong air conditioner, while on the opposite warm side a cold hearted fellow mammal that was destined to be fat is sitting there complaining about how hot it is, while I'm constantly getting sick and advising her that we switch positions for a win-win situation, non of the advice gets to her and suffering from asthma doesn't help, I'm sitting with a blanket around me in the living room 😂

[@NataliaPessoaXOXOMAKE]

Why are some people always hot?

[@benjalazo]

Cause they are very attractive

[@BrianPvanOers]

I'm born that way.

[@favorite89103]

Brian Patrick van Oers actually, not

[@TheAmazingL1nk3rz]

they said it in the video

[@dogiz6952]

Cause I'm flawless.

[@Lewisking50]

I always felt cold for as long as I can remember, I'm 19 atm.

[@Suntro]

I can attest to that Canadian study about socializing affecting body temperature.

[@Leilotus⁷]

As a overweighted person, I felt happy when you mention that fatter people tends to feel warmer.

[@trulyinfamous]

I just tend to think that rooms are just moderate, while my friends say that it's freezing, I will then say "You're crazy it's not cold in here."

[@jonaerakua1]

your accurate use of "you're" tickles my loins when thought in yore-spect

[@SlippyLegJones]

In my school the heat is controlled in a large city way from where my school is so the heat is always up further than it should be. I'm always the only warm one while everybody else just dies. When they feel my hands they always say "You're freezing" and I don't realize until I've been told.

[@intothekey]

I feel really warm all the time. People often comment on how warm my hands are.

[@kTbCClan]

i can be on fire and say my hands are cold

[@brainey001]

36.4 is normal... 37.0 is fever for everyone in the world but the states. When i have 37 i have a cold as well as most ppl i know. Just saying...

[@michaeldavis8999]

Thanks for the great article on temperature. My wife and I are in our early 60's. When ever she awakens, from a nights sleep. Or from an afternoon nap. She feels cold. I however, am not. Why?

[@orcodrilo]

It is nice that you consider the international units to display the temperatures in Celsius. Now, the next step is speaking in Celsius and put Fahrenheit in (), help America get used to the international system as the main system.

[@WarWithReality]

My fingers are always cold its so annoying. :(

[@c6rbonbased120]

hell with Fehrenheit -.-

[@vanessanewell1689]

America has to be special :|

[@Richy2M]

America it's a Continent !!! It's called United States of AMERICA = U.S.A. !!! ... And yes we are a very special continent where all the countries use the metric system except for U.S.A. of course ... The metric system is an internationally agreed decimal system of measurement, the only 3 countries in the world where the metric system it's not official jet are the United States of America, Liberia and Burma (Myanmar). The dual usage of or confusion between metric and non-metric units has resulted in a number of serious and tragic incidents. These include: - Flying an overloaded American International Airways aircraft from Miami, Florida to Maiquetia, Venezuela on 26 May 1994. The degree of overloading was consistent with ground crew reading the kilogram markings on the cargo as pounds. - In 1999 the Institute for Safe Medication Practices reported that confusion between grains and grams led to a patient receiving phenobarbital 0.5 grams instead of 0.5 grains (0.03 grams) after the practitioner misread the prescription. - The Canadian "Gimli Glider" accident in 1983, when a Boeing 767 jet ran out of fuel in mid-flight because of two mistakes made when calculating the fuel supply of Air Canada's first aircraft to use metric measurements: mechanics miscalculated the amount of fuel required by the aircraft as a result of their unfamiliarity with metric units. - The root cause of the loss in 1999 of NASA's US$125 million Mars Climate Orbiter was a mismatch of units, the spacecraft engineers calculated the thrust forces required for velocity changes using US customary units (lbf·s) whereas the team who built the thrusters were expecting a value in metric units (N·s) as per the agreed specification. Fahrenheit scale is so XVIII Century ... .◕‿◕. ® ™

[@charlieinfinite9434]

The hell with meters?

[@bugidiboo3996]

*I'm here cause my body is playing tricks on me all the sudden I start freezing for no reason*

[@SeymoreTheDisappointed]

Maybe that's why I never feel temperature like everyone else because I never notice what's going on around me

[@summerlouise1628]

I haterd it when in college everyone in class morned it was too hot and though open a window and it was winter, and when I asked them to closs it they moned I allways feel cold. I always thought I was amemic.

[@epfizerdoolittleajl2165]

A whole other bag of Cats? U think that's an appropriate phrase to use whilst talking about women? Not only am I triggered but I'm triggered

[@MrTwatwaffle007]

Ava Lawrence Want a waffle?

[@epfizerdoolittleajl2165]

MrTwatwaffle007 yes. Yes I do

[@MrTwatwaffle007]

Ava Lawrence One waffle for you!! Here you go!! 🍘. Lol

[@epfizerdoolittleajl2165]

MrTwatwaffle007 omg thankyou 💜💜💜

[@LeuJinx]

...can't tell if you're being ironic or stupid. I'll assume the former.

[@sarina76667]

Anything over 70 degrees F and I start melting. My coworkers use me as a heater. And yet...I'm female, my normal temp is 96.8 as opposed to 98.6, and my blood pressure is normal. It's been said when I hit menopause my chair will spontaneously combust during hot flashes.

[@fourtweven]

People always comment about how cold my hands are when we shake hands. It's literally just my hands and feet though which is honestly weird.

[@austinhernandez2716]

This is so my mom. She always says she's cold and has the thermostat turned up high. It's like she'd trying to cook us. I think I know how the Jews felt lol.

[@captainrobots1]

it depend sometimes im cold and sometimes im hot i have no clue why. like today i felt hot but other days i feel cold.

[@luciayoutz9981]

Same

[@emmayoung8149]

I guess the reason why I'm cold is because I'm alone and always uncomfortable

[@cactussenpai9625]

I always feel like I'm warm when I'm with my friends, even though my hands are as cold as ice...

[@eliannam.5700]

I changed my mind. I'm not sleeping with you and your cold feet Trace..

[@spidth11]

I find I struggle in cold temperatures anything below 15C, I think its cause I am from Australia

[@cloudsstar]

I live in Canada and hate when it drops below 22°

[@u2bluvr]

duckyy bundy I hate it when it drops below 26`

[@payan131]

I'm from California and I hate it when it's over 100 degrees

[@FrozenSunrise]

Can't deal when it's less than 23. Dang Australia. I'm pretty sure I'd die in snow

[@static_Tricolor_camry]

I freeze easily in the morning I put on a long sleeve shirt underneath a t-shirt and I wear a Hoodie to stay warm even when its mild with no wind or breeze I still feel chilly

[@rafaelribeiro935]

You tell me if I'm always hot: I was in Poland on New Years Eve I went outside around midnight with a wet t-shirt (don't ask why, long history) and just a normal jacket I bought in my home country, Portugal. It was -10ºC and we stayed outside for about one hour. When we got back home my t-shirt had already dried. I dried a t-shirt with my body heat with -10ºC

[@imadgibbs9063]

Using Fahrenheit, Dnews? tut tut..

[@selah7778]

always freezing..brrrr...hELP!

[@slipz1589]

Lol

[@petraark7305]

im always cold, but when im on my period, my husband says my body temperature skyrockets while sleeping. he easily compares me to a furnace or a really big heating pad

[@aceisking12]

There's an infra-red video camera at the Denver museum of nature and science. People have told me many times that I have abnormally cold hands, but I didn't know how bad it was until I saw on screen that my fingers where much closer to the color of the cold plate than the fingers of anyone else on camera.
