First, let me apologize for missing last week. I was training for NAGA in Nashville and just didn’t have any free time. I placed 3rd by the way!
Anyway here we go!
I lived in Buffalo, NY for many years, and I saw some amazing things when it came to White people in cold weather. Like parents taking their toddlers to Wal*Mart in 9 degree weather dressed in tank tops and Speedos, while I had my kids dressed in three coats and wrapped in blankets. Do the little White kids not get cold? If they do, is the tantrum they throw right after they get inside and attempt to warm up? Other things I’ve see my White buddies do in freezing temperatures includes:
Play touch football in shorts and a t-shirt
Sit Shirtless through a Bills game and complain that the beer isn’t cold enough
Sleep with the window open to get fresh airCross country ski down the street when there’s too much snow to jog.
Anyway, I’ve always wondered, are White people born impervious to cold, or do you actual train your children to be cold resistant by not putting coats on them?Thank you Sir, and have a great day.

Dear Dwane
Man I am originally from Clearwater Florida and have since been transplanted in Ala-backwardass-Bama. Folks here start buying up all the gat damn milk and bread if the temp drops below 60. If it gets below 55 we start pumping in sunshine, and anything under 50 and a state of emergency is declared. So honestly I don’t know what them crazy ass white folks are doing up there. I don’t think it is so much that white people like cold weather than it is black folks DON’T. You know why black folks don’t play hockey?
1. They don’t feel the need to dominate yet ANOTHER sport.
2. Damn it’s cold!
I often look at the weather during the winter – you know, when there is 78 inches of snow and the Northeasterners are all stuck in their houses or shoveling snow for 4 hours so they can get to their cars – and think to myself… What the phuck were the “settlers” thinking. It MUST have been a nice July day or some ish when they decided to stop. They was like, this is NICE? Cool – Then winter came and they was – damnit! So honestly I am no help.
When me and Bef was at Hooters a few weeks ago she asked me about why white folks let their kids run crazy in restaurants. I was going to answer her but I had to chase my kid down cause he was running around the restaurant – true story.
Shirtless white people at football games ARE cold – they are just too prideful to admit it.
I sleep with a fan on but my windows are closed…
Cross country ski down the street ?? Really.. that actually sounds fun – cept I don’t ski and I hate snow – but I’d slide down a hill on a tube or something!
White people may be born impervious to cold up north, but down here.. we ain’t trying to do jack when it’s cold. I’m serious, you know how people call into work sick? Well I once called in to work cold.
For next week, can I get some of my country azz southern dark skinned friends to ask me a question?

Did he just say he was training Naga's in Nashville?! *DEAD* I know it wasn't intentional but hilarious none the less/ Aint no Naga's in Nashville….they all moved to Memphis.
lmao man I had to read that twice…I was thinking I was gonna have to beat Zell's ass
I'm pretty sure the reason guys are shirtless at sporting events can be explained one way: copious amounts of booze.
Why do some white parents underdress their kids? plain ol' stupidity. I even carry a blanket in the car for when it gets cold and I have my mom with me. During the winter, there's usually a spare hoodie in the car, too. I was raised with the rule: if you're cold, put on more clothes… Oh… Wait… That was my father's rule. Aaaand he was Puerto Rican. Well then, nevermind. Forget I said anything…
Puerto Ricans= Black folks with "good hair"
I'm half Puerto Rican, and this is very true.

Add testosterone and poopidity, and you would be correct.

*hollering*
I do have that same question. I see White people walking down the street in the winter in flip-flops, shorts, & a hoodie (aroo?). But I think it's just the dudes, cuz I've also seen white chicks going to the club in a skimpy dress & heels tryna to run and holding their shoulders cuz they cold (heffa shoulda worn a coat). Let's ask our other White person – Fubs?
Black chicks wear next to nothing to the club too when it's cold…only they refuse to show weakness lol. I call it "Hoe Strength" when a chick calls upon that Hoe Strength there isn't gunna be shying stopping her from looking cute in the club lol
I don't know if I would call it "hoe strength" as much as I would call it "not wanting to pay for coat check because that's less money for liquor" logic. I have frozen once or twice without a coat because that's 4 dollars less for likka.
#LushPost
Well, y'all know I'm not much of a drinker and I ain't freezing for no one. LOL
Beats me, because I see it here in Wichita all the time.
I'm assuming that is just what they happen to have on in the house when they discover they need more milk/bread/eggs/whatever, and think, "It won't take long- I'll just hop in the car and go; I'll be in and out."

::chair slides into a slow death::
Country ass dark skin…….Dwane T……….Is he talking to you agiain?! OR is he calling me dark skin?
I'm a New Yorker who has taken his dark skin to the south. Hopefully I'm not country yet. He must be talking to you, but I can ask him a question on behalf of my Geechie cousins if he'd like.
Sleep with the window open to get fresh air
Um…my black azz does this all year long (except in the summer when the off button on my A/C is basically invisible to me).

*Bury me with Twink so our families will only have to shell out cash for one obituary notice*
Umm when you play sports you get hot so there is no need for the extra clothes. Im from the south so to see any person in a hoodie, shorts, and sandals is normal. The only thing that needs to be warm is your arms. Winter is the best time to sleep with the windows open. Windows open and a fan on each side of the bed
Thank you, Blu…my legs do not get cold…
but I still refuse to wear shorts and a hoodie…I will, however, rock a heavy coat, sweater, a knee length (or shorter) skirt, and boots…with or without tights but usually without.
Girl, I like sleeping in a cold room too, but I just cover the heating vent. The window stays shut!
"I sleep with a fan on but my windows are closed…"
In Korea, they will tell you that you will die from Fan Death if you do that.
No shyt.

It's amazing that you can live there. I would never stop telling people they were stupid for believing something like that.
zell…can you explain this?

I'm convinced that YT folks have a need to find excitement since they're the 'dominant' species. We got enough stuff to deal with that crazy ish like this never crosses our minds…
No, no I can't. But please keep in mind I am not your "typical" white guy. (i.e. I have more than 1 black friend).
sorry, zell…i will direct my question elsewhere as i know a few white folks that have less than one black friend…
I'm texting back and forth now with my boy who has almost no White friends. His father even pastors a church with an almost all Black congregation. I sometimes have to explain WFS to him… which is a scary thought.
"Well I once called in to work cold."
I live in Iowa, I did that several times…
I can tell ya'll why I got the moron kids walkin through snow in flipflops. I get sick and tired of saying 'IT'S TOO COLD TO WEAR THAT PUT SOME GATDAMN REAL SHOES ON'. or 'IT'S F*CKING SNOWING OUTSIDE YOU ARE NOT WEARING A TANK TOP'.
At some point, I'm just like…f*ck it. Let them go out on errands with me dressed like they're fixin to go frolick through the meadows in the summertime. They'll learn.
No they don't. NO THEY DON'T. But I never pass up an opportunity to look into their glazed eyes and freezing blue lips and tell them
I TOLD YOUR PUNKASS TO PUT ON MORE CLOTHES. MAYBE NOW MOM'S NOT SO STUPID HUH? MAYBE YOU MIGHT WANNA LISTEN TO WHAT I'M TRYIN TO TELL YOU AND I AIN'T JUST TALKIN TO HEAR MY ASS TALK.
As one half of #teamswirl let me just say….. there is no explanation for it except …. white folks is different!
they just are and my black citified ass really dont understand these fools wanderin around in -40 degrees in swimtrunks flipflops and hoodies with snow up to the yazoo…. they are DIFFERENT y'all just go with it dont try to figure it out it'll make you fall out!
