Indoor batting cages and tennis courts don't exist here- don't need them. And skiing and snowboarding are 90 minutes away in the winter. You lose.
wow i wonder how long it took you to make that up? wow.

this is beyond of the retard stage because my cousin hates the heat but loves sports.

he personally prefers indoor sports over outdoor sports any day as do a lot of people.

YOU LOOSE. you will go home with no money tonight.

Yeah, I'm Haitian. But I've been living in NC for 8yrs. I left Florida for Texas when I was younger, then left to NC. I 1st experienced snow when I was in Texas, and I experience snow and ice, every winter in here in NC.

How do I lose, exactly? I have access to the best places to ski and snowboard aside Colorado.

Youre implying that because of indoor courts, people hate the cold.

That is some f*ckwit logic right there.

Also.

I. Play. Hockey.

One more time?

I. Play. Hockey.

LA didnt even know they had a ****ing team for 40 years til this June.

thats exactly what you said and its false.
No, I said you tell yourself you PREFER the changes in temps, specically from mild to cold (Winter), to feel better about having to deal with it. You even take the reverse psychology to its logical conclusion, by slamming Southern California's climate, calling it "boring".

And guess what? You and your buddy's comments in this thread have made my point...cold weather makes you "appreciate things"..."I get irritated when it gets below 40, good thing we have jackets".

I'll keep my boring weather, thanks.

Youre an idiot.

The heat and sun also makes you want colder and overcast days as well. It works both ways. I know tons of people anticipating the coming months.

Im not saying people love being in snowstorms and blizzards, no different than people would love being in an earthquake or having their home burned down from wildfires or dealing with smog.

Its a shame you cant experience an autumn or changing leaves either, or crisp clear skies.

yes i prefer the heat but i prefer the heat in 4 seasons. whats hard to get?? and it makes perfect sense because nyc never gets below 0 or even close to 0

so if it were to go below 30 i would indeed be irate. But this isnt Montreal Canada so im not worried.

As i said i like my fashion and i like looking different. nyc and northeastern weather is the best.

yea keep your boring smog weather. You probably have a choking accent.
