Cold as a brass toilet seat in Siberia.
It's not cold, it's like a summer's day in Glasgow.
I don't know how to convey this in English.
C'est pas froid, c'est frettte!
Too cold. That's why I am flying to South Africa on Saturday. :yeah:

For me it's Los Angeles and Sunday.
Other, I am happy my parents left the frozen wastes of Canada east of the Rockies and settled in the one corner of Canada that is habitable in winter.
Holy Mayor McFucking Goat Cheese, it's cold out. Wind chill has it knocked down to 14 degrees here.
Needed to get gas, tossed in $10 and got the fuck back inside. I'll deal with that bullshit later.
Very.
Around freezing during the day, nighttime of -7°C, not much of a wind going, i.e. tolerable.
Cold enough to freeze the TITS off a brass monkey!
As Dante would say, it's cold as hell. Just not here. :cool:

We hit -35C with the chill factor here yesterday :)
In Quebec city, it was -40C with the chill factor.
Currently, -20C straight, -31C with the chill factor :)

Heh, I always heard "balls". With the innocuous variant of "tail" if anyone easily-offended was in earshot. :D
Balls makes more sense. Unless you're specifically looking for them, monkey tits are easy to pass over.

True.
I can't imagine why one would be specifically looking for monkey tits. Unless of course they are on one's monkubines. ;)
God, it's fucking cold.
Not cold at all. It has been in the 40s all week.
Now LAST week when it was -30...that was cold.
Yeah 38 here now, but suppose to get below 0f temps tonight and for weekend.
Very. I live in a land without double glazing, insulation or central heating.
Fucking 16 degrees out.
Winter weather advisory for this afternoon and evening. 1 to 3 inches. TIME TO PANIC

I look like I've built a cocoon in my bedroom. Nearly froze entering my bathroom this morning.
Every time I go outside to smoke I turtle up so bad I have to punch myself in the stomach to get my dinger to pop out so I can pee...
:(
I overslept, and the cat came and got me, and gave me the blues following me around until I went out to the living room and turned on the fireplace.
Now she's laid out in front of it like a polar bear rug at a cheap Poconos getaway.

Colder then a well digger's ass.
Some valve on the aircraft I am on is frozen so they could not start the engine and need to repair it first...
It's warm, just under zero.
68 degrees. It's perfect.
32F, a lot warmer than its been for the last couple of weeks.
I get to deal with this crap right here too:

You should move back to Southern California.
It's like 16 Celsius. Brr. :glare:
19 degrees here.
Stupid birds still haven't found my bird feeders yet.
It's 9:30 in the evening and it's 40 degrees out there. That's kinda weird. We are suppose to get some freezing rain later though.
I think the high was in the upper 70s today. Might dip down into the 50s tonight. :lol:
I'd be warmer if I was still in Hamburg. <_<
-3 f here so all y'all shut the hell up.
I don't get why crass is supposed to be colder than iron or whatever.
31 degrees Celsius today in Pretoria. We just had a barbeque next to the pool at a friend's place.
The fuck? Queen got crap for playing Sun City but for you it's OK to hang out in Pretoria?
It's a balmy 5 degree Celsius with a light drizzle. :umbrella:
There are zombies and boss monsters. :umbrella:

Has to do with conductivity I think.
Brass made of copper and tin, copper used for electrical wiring.

Impossible, you would start baking at those temperatures.
Oh ya, you still use that archaic measuring system.

Nothing is colder than being crass.
Supposed to get up to the 40s today. Allah be praised.

Supposed to be 60 tomorrow.

Get over your snow fetish, you weirdo.
It's positive right now, which means sleet and the snow from last night melting into slush. Im getting tired of winter.
Got some ice and sleet this AM; all dreary and wintry out.
Not a bad day to be unemployed and playing video games in front of the fireplace.
It snowed on the local mountains again. Skiing yesterday was good. Still about 6C in the city. All is as it should be.
Hace un frio del carajo.
Cross-country skiing was okay yesterday. - 10 with windchill, not really cold for skiing. I did a 10 km run.
