      Lol true. Without heating tho you'll actually die, all while your home is destroyed from burst pipes

        Here in Aus, it's so hot in summer that the plants die in direct sun. It gets so hot that it's deadly. At least when it's cold you can layer your clothes. It's much harder to cool down than to heat up, trust me. AC is way more expensive then heating and if you have to install one then it's even more expensive.

        Trust me, as someone that's lived in both hot and cold countries, I'll take the cold any day.

          Good points. I have never been to australia, although I really want to go, so I don't know what it's like there in the heat. The hottest place I have ever been is florida and I 100% agree, I'd take the cold over heat any day.

          I agree the heat is deadly. The difference is that people have lived in australia for thousands of years without AC. Literally no one has ever lived in the north without artificial heat, even if it was just open fires.

          Amen. You can always put more clothes on, but legality and realism both say you can only take so many off.
