      This meme makes no sense. Dry cold is worse than humid cold.

      Edit: I mean the air, not your body or clothes. Wind chill is so much worse in dry air.

        No way man. Having dry skin in the cold is way easier to tolerate than damp skin. When I come out of the gym covered in sweat and it’s -20 outside it’s 10 times worse than when I go in.

        well.

        Ii’ll take -40 (0r worse) over just-at-freezing and rainy. that shit seeps, and nothing wholesome ever seeps. when it’s brutally cold out, you can just pack more on. (or stay inside.)

        The meme, though, is a joke about the otherside of the spectrum. (“It’s a dry heat.”)
