Yeah, man... been around Toronto on business since Sunday, and it's been ridiculously hot until just today... humidex factor actually hit 45°C a couple days ago. Felt like standing in a sauna once I stepped outside. But now it's back to a more reasonable temperature... and tomorrow it's only supposed to reach 25°C.

I'm cool with the heat, having grown up in Asia and all,
I'm also cool with the rain.
But fuck me if there's rain and heat, more fucking grass to cut.

Oh good one. I'm 5'10" and weigh a respectable 160lbs (probably a little underweight for my size). On the contrary maybe you should put on some weight or better yet just move away from Canada for good.

right now I have a fan blowing onto a bucket of icy cold water (complete with ice cubes on top), it took about 30 minutes but my room's ambient temperature has been cooled down by about 3-4 degrees. Not a large value but enough to make a difference.

I will never complain about Vancouver getting too hot. Got back a couple weeks ago from Fresno, California where it was 42-44 the day I left. This is nothing, maybe a different, more intense kind of heat here, but it's not bad. I played a round of golf today and it was awesome! Nice breeze in the shade, wear some sunscreen, hydrate and you are good!

6' and 160 lbs (that's 183cm and 73kg for those of you who haven't fully integrated into Canadian society). If anything, I should hate the cold too, but I love it when it gets below -10.

You are just a trolling pussy.

You get out of the shower dry off get changed and you are soaked head to toe now thats hot.

Stop fucken bitching and enjoy it because you will be complaing again about how you want the sun and summer in 3 months from now when it's cold and raining.

Hot weather is freaking awesome. I just hate the fact that I can't sleep at night. I live on the second floor and it's a constant 25+ even at night. This is why I rather have cold weather.

I'm not a big fan of heat. It's not HK hot, but it's getting there.

I honestly prefer the cold. If you get cold, you put on more layers. If you're hot, you're kinda screwed after you're down to bare skin.

I'm a winter baby though. I don't know if that makes a difference or not.

It's getting annoying when I'm sweating through my shirt before I get to class at 8... reeeeal annoying.
