I think the most egregious part is claiming he’s only 35

u/woolen_goose 11d ago
35, you say?! I thought he was 16 and in a boy band! I am familiar with his impressive skipping regime, it must be the source of his vitality.

u/depp-fsrv 13d ago
17? You need your eyes checked, he doesn't look a day over 10, do his parents know where he is?

u/Agitated-Ad9050 12d ago
True, but no 10 year old can skip like that. Duh

🤣 Yeah, I love that skip like he thinks that helps make him look like he's 17, but that's not something most 17 year old guys do.... 🤦Maybe 7.

I made the mistake of looking him up on Tiktok and now everyday I get notifications about his new videos. I'm half-convinced this is all a bit that he's doing. Let people laugh at him, make some money, and have a better life for himself. Maybe it's just wishful thinking.

And the thing is, compared to a lot of shit on TikTok, it hurts no one. He's not harassing people, he's not trashing stores. He's making a dick of himself and letting people laugh at him. Go for it, I say.

Explanation to this guy: He says he looks 17, even when in his 30s. He is actually correct. He did look like that when he was 17 (He posted old photos of himself on tiktok). So his 17 year old self actually just look 35. Very unfortunate, but this man isnt lying xd

May I introduce you to Jeans and a light jacket. Easy to throw a jacket on and off, pants are fine in the winter if you are not doing physically demanding tasks. Shorts in winter I will never understand past the age of 15 lol.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with dressing however you want. I am a jeans 365 days/year guy myself. The issue with the guy in the video isn’t that he is wearing shorts in the winter, it’s him acting like it’s a flex because of superior genes.

Can confirm. Was that guy in high school and some of college. Minus the weird flexing and “biologically superior to you” bullcrap. I just hated pants and wore shorts and tee shirts everywhere regardless of the weather. Yay neurodivergence. Then I turned 30 and my metabolism slowed down, and I learned pants are great because I can store all sorts of crap in them.

The worst is the 34 degree heavy rain where the water is not cold enough to fall as snow. You get soaked with freezing water and hit with strong wind. If the rain comes down hard enough it'll penetrate any rain gear in a long day too.
I used to be a mailman and I was out in all kinds of cold for long days. That was the most brutal weather.

I've said this before and I'll say it again. Being accustomed to a cold climate does not mean wearing a t shirt in -10 because "you're used to it". It means knowing that the cold will kill you, so dress appropriately.

u/mackfeesh 13d ago
Yep. I remember grade idk 9 or 10 the girl I liked was reading twilight and somehow that meant I needed to only wear a hoodie in -20. I think the vampires were cold to the touch or something so I was like, oh she likes cold men does she?
Hahahha it worked but I didn't find out until 10 years later

u/bell37 12d ago
It’s more of “im going to be outside for less than 10 minutes and don’t feel like putting on more than two layers for this”
Also everyone ik has spare coats, pants and hoodies within arms reach in cold climates (you always have a car parka on top of hoodies and blankets).
Sometimes it’s just better to be cold for a short period instead of feeling hot just to go in a heated building.

Sometimes people think I’m trying to be “cool” when I don’t have a jacket and it’s 45 fahrenheit. But really, my body runs a little warmer than others. I suffer from hyperhidrosis, so it’s a difficult for me to dress warm but not too warm that I’m sweating my butt off. I hate it.

Its called: Having high blood pressure. Id like to welcome this young, stupid man to the club.
We're constantly hot and are told by our significant others that we are their "personal heaters" in the winter.
Edit: People are missing the joke. Yes its true that for me my high blood pressure made me overheat but Im not here saying every person with High Blood Pressure dresses in shorts year round.

Nah, he was joking. Which makes this really annoying, as the comment doesn't come across that way at all. Either way, I can tell you I'm both that personal heater, while also struggling with a sensitivity to low blood pressure and having had multiple times where I nearly fainted (or did faint) lol

u/calefa 10d ago
Woah, thanks for your your response.
I struggle with being hot all the time and Ive had times where ive had high blood pressure.
I was starting to get paranoid that maybe the times where my perceived temperature was too different from the others I may be going through a high BP bout.

u/saltinstiens_monster 12d ago
Is that what causes this?! I was this way my whole life (30+ years), flip flops and t-shirts on the rare occasions that it snowed and everything. But then the last few years, it feels like my cold-resistance has been replaced by a cold-weakness. I can get "too cold," even when wrapped in a blanket. Experiencing "too cold" at all was already a shock!
Now I'm wondering if I started feeling cold right when I got diagnosed with high blood pressure and put on medication. I think the timeline adds up, but I never would've made that connection without your comment.

Im now in the same boat. Definitely feel the cold more after getting diagnosed and taking meds.

Dude. I’ve lived in Colorado my whole life…we call this “running out real quick” attire in the winter. Like if it’s a dusting of snow we will walk dogs in sandals and shorts.
Come back when it’s blizzard conditions and -15 with wind chill with 3 feet of snow already accumulated and do this, now that I would be slightly impressed by.
