Layers are the key. That's what we all do. See? You'd be fine.

:)

Unless its a quick run to the store. Then it could still be shorts.

Also, pee-can.

The warmest single piece of clothing a lot of people have is pretty much a warm hoody or Jacket. Not these type of ones: http://www.frontcountry.com/frontcou...t_thyme_fr.jpg

at 12 Fahrenheit? :eek:

Its really not that bad if its just running to the car, getting out and grabbing pizza, and running back into the house. Especially because the issue is your head and upper body, not your legs. If the wind isn't an issue, having shorts on outside for a short time isn't as extreme as it may sound.

If that were black it could be my overcoat although it doesn't look quite as stuffed. T-shirt, button-down flannel long sleeve and hoodie under it and you're good to go. Wear your snow boots, 2 pairs of socks, long undies under your jeans, stocking cap and gloves and head out on the town. Don't be a puss.

:)

yeah, thatd be the main thing.

Truth here. Warm the car up and shorts are fine for a 30 second run in and out.

LMAO

I wasn't making a joke. That was preparing to be out for a while. If you're just going to be in and out you don't need all that. It's just cold it's not the end of life.

Yea yea I know. Just a couple things were a little humerus.

Aussie the key is covering your head and hands, doubling your socks if possible. If you are out in wind for a while, cover your face as well. You keep your head and digits warm, you will be at least "ok" comfort-wise.

Well if it's double-digit negative temp with a wind chill I might put under armour under the t-shirt and heat packs in my boots if I'm shoveling snow. After 10 minutes you'll be hot and shedding layers to let the breeze in.

Bingo. Protect the extremities. The core will be fine for a long time.

I might be just fine in the cold.

LMAO

This ones fake and doesnt even look like Australia, but....http://data.whicdn.com/images/154332...9c96_large.jpg

Hey the winters might be shitty cold but the summers being shitty hot and humid make up for it. At least they don't eat me.

Uh, yeah, give me the cold I think. ESPECIALLY if that second picture is of what I think it is. I couldn't look long enough. The type of spiders you have there is enough for me to accept minus 15 for half the year.

:toast:

Do you guys have those big camel spiders? If so, oh **** no. I don't do big spiders.

I could be really wrong, but it seems like American summers aren't all that cooler than Australian Summers.

It can stay cold the whole damn year as long as that crap isn't going to greet me in my garage or from under my car.

Spiders like would be way more inland. But yea, if the average person in Australia saw one of those closeby they would likely freak out, just like anyone else would.

Really spiders are only around in summer. And luckily in my area the only ones that regularly show up indoors are harmless (albeit quite large).

I have no problem admitting that I would scream like a little ****ing bitch if I saw that. I can't even imagine.

July and August hit triple digits most days plus humidity often in the midwest. You can always put more clothes on in the winter. You can only take so much off in the summer.

The worst summer day I remember was 114 but that's rare. This past summer 102-108 was pretty normal during the dog days.

I'd carry a flame thrower everywhere I go if I lived with that shit.

Most spiders in the superbs/city are only found in nooks and crannies outdoors. Very few spiders go into houses and when they do they tend to be harmless or close to it.

Just knowing that picture circulates around computers in Australia is honestly enough for me to not go there, despite how awesome some of your places seem.

102-108 is pretty hot. That's the hottest it ever really gets on the coast. Itd get hotter further inland. 114 is probably the hottest experienced too.

LMAO nice

That second one I looked up on google images. Also it's fake.

I would have thought most of these "meanwhile in Australia" pics would have been made by foreigners.

I've lived with wild cats (moutain lions and the like) running through my yard any time day or night but big spiders can **** the hell right off.

True. I didn't look at it long enough to know. I still want to scream though...

These are really the two only spiders that would ever frequently be indoors.

These are harmless becomes their fangs are so small and cannot really bite anything:http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...uly_2007-2.jpg


These are the scary looking ones that many people mistake as deadly: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._grey_bg04.jpg
Dont get me wrong there are many similar looking spider that ARE dangerous but arent really found in superbs/cities very often.

Great. Now I have to buy a new laptop after stomping on my screen. Thanks ****stick.

I take it you didnt read the text :D

Your blasphemous text means dick when shit is trying to kill me.

ROFL The irony

Crap Aussie are you ****ing serious. I would neg rep you if I wanted to get anywhere near that post again. ****!!! See if I stay up to 6am talking to you again.:harumph:

Fight or flight. Goddamn it I have to call Dell now.

:#

Better?

Didnt read the text either?

Isn't it your bedtime yet? Hell it's 2018 here.

LMAO

Anyone remember when this thread was about nuts?

It's got more posts than the other thread now LMAO

the text? no?

Well nuts are pretty popular. High in protein and all.

No I didn't. Also not sure about rules but you might need to put the picture of my neg rep to you as a spoiler.

I'm not sure anybody's avatar affects my image of how a person is or is acting behind their computer screen more than the ones I have seen of yours.

Okay I take it no-one read the post with the pics.

Basically bad spiders usually stay away from indoors and the suberbs/cities. Two main spiders that come into suberban homes are harmless.

Well ok. If that was really me would I be wide awake at 5am though?

ROFL

True. Problem is I can't handle any kind. I'm not as much worried about being eaten or murder-stabbed as much as I am just afraid of them in general. Just the look is enough to kill me.

I can't put tna attachment in spoiler tags. It's a pretty small pic, hopefully its fine.

I read the text. I'm just having fun. I know there are people here that don't understand it (not talking about present company) but I think an internet bulletin board should be fun... and it is for me... whether some dicks like it or not.

:hmmm: I see

Mmmm. Good point. Although perhaps you just get into that state and never get worse. Plus after that cup of coffee, who knows whats going on. Doesn't seem like a guy that destroys his computer over spiders.

THAT Dr. Johnny Fever is a charactor. In fact so is this one.

:)

Its probably why I enjoy you, FAX(Mr.), and Rainman so much. I do enjoy the hate as well, but you are all a great change of pace. Also haven't been around long but I don't really see many people getting on your case about it, nor should they.

I also thought that was you

LOL. I seem to have this persona that a lot of people take seriously. I've never gotten that. It's mind bottling. Yes I have serious moments but all in all... really?

ROFL

I knew it wasn't him, but avatar's still have that affect sometimes. I always see Rainman as a very smart stick figure and Milkman as Red.

ROFL

Seriously?

It's actor Howard Hesseman aka Dr. Johnny Fever on the hit 80's sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati. Favorite show/charactor on tv ever.

This is me... (the ugly one not her)

Thanks man I appreciate that. My critics are mostly just a few stalkers and trolls... nothing big.

Plus your love of baseball.

The greatest game...

Oh hell I just made two more enemys LOL

Haha, yeah I used to try to fight with people about baseball and hockey but its not worth it. Hell I even like soccer. I am very tolerable when it comes to sports. As for baseball, there are points against it I can understand but in the end I still love it. I freaking love watching playoff baseball as well.

The one thing I think they need to fix is the time between pitches. If you aren't brushed back I don't understand why you need to get out of the box and reset. I get that I don't get paid millions but unless a ball moves my feet I never take both feet out of the box. The 20 second rule or whatever they have is a joke and obviously never used.

Almost :D

I get what you're saying. IMO it's just part of the relaxed beauty of the game. The aggresion comes once the ball is hit. The rest is what some call "the thinking man's game." I get why some don't like it but I do. When I spend the money for a ticket to the game I don't want it too be rushed. I want to spend the whole day there. It's my happy place.

Anyway... Back to what Australia's really about (Time to pimp my country now)

I hear you. And I am not looking for it to be in fast forward speed, but some pitchers and hitters are just too much for me. Runners on I can understand it more, but some guys get to me.

We don't agree on music, sports or killer spiders........ yet we aren't pricks to each other about it. It's very uncp-like.

When I saw pictures pop up I started to panic.

There are guys who take way too long... no doubt.

I Definitely understand this, I see what youre saying.
