I dislike being cold.

I would much rather be warm than cold.

Yes, I hear you, you hordes of naysayers. You universally pipe up with “At least when you’re cold, you can put on more layers, whereas when you’re hot, you get to the point where you can no longer take off any more.”

This completely misses the point of what I’m saying, and, in a strange way, underscores it. If you put on more layers, then you’re no longer cold, right? Presumably you put on more layers *BECAUSE* you, too, don’t like being cold, and would prefer to be warm. RIGHT?

So please stop telling me that I’m weird because I prefer to be warm. I am a mammal. You are welcome to be a reptile.

That is all.
