Are you "warm blooded" or "cold blooded"?
Meaning, is your body temperature heavily dependent on your external environment, or does it stay pretty constant?
I guess I'm cold blooded because I'm very sensitive to weather, and I hate extreme heat and extreme cold, but don't mind anything ranging from moderate heat down to a slightly drizzly chill.
I do hate when people turn their air conditioner up too high, or over-use air conditioning.
I've been told that my butt was cold before, lol, like the chill of an outer environment will actually make my heinie feel cool to the touch. I've heard this is common in women, though, for whatever reason.
I'm normally very influenced by the environment, and almost always tend toward the cold side. Once I'm cold it takes a long time to get warm again. The heat rarely makes me uncomfortable. When it's so hot it feels like you're swimming through the sun and even your bones are melting. Ahhhh bliss.

^ This! At least when it's cold (and not too humid), you can just put on more clothing and be fine. If you're boiling hot -- especially when it's humid so sweating doesn't cool you down -- then there's not much you can do.I am actually bothered more by being too warm, as it is harder to counteract.

My ears are quite susceptible to cold, and especially if it is windy. I have had to cover my ears with a hat or ear band in temperatures over 50F when the wind was strong. Otherwise it became extremely painful.Agree once hot, it's difficult to cool down. But for me, once I'm cold, it sinks into my bones- particularly with my hands or feet. (it's also very possible I have a mild bit of Reynaud's or whatever that's called... I've never felt my circulation is optimal, and my feet especially will become noticeably cooler to the touch, even after being out and about in 40-50 degree weather for a while (i.e. it doesn't have to be below freezing))
