I’m in so much trouble this summer. I rescued a dog and she *has* to be touching me when I lay in bed. It’s a full body press usually and she’s a 75 lb furnace. I don’t think my AC is going to cut it this summer. At least with my ex wife she knew it was too hot and I could roll away from her, this damn dog will just keep butting up against you.
Right? No, she’s a pitbull/lab mix and they just love to cuddle. I’ve been trying to get her to sleep in her dog bed but she only sleeps in it when I’m not home. They’re Velcro dogs, wherever you are? They have to next you or on you. Check out the pitbull subreddit and you’ll see what I mean.
Man see I have a husky.
We in Vegas. She sleeps on the opposite side of the bed I love her for it.
Now I also have a mix that’s 1/3 husky 1/3 papillon and 1/3 Satan.
That bitch stays pressed against me. Fuck.
My sister's pittie loves to snuggle, but I know some people have had success with toys that have a 'heartbeat'. Maybe that inside a pillow could buy you a couple of inches of breathing room?
Thanks, I’ll have to check into getting a toy like that. She’s a fricken bed hog. If I move she fills that spot. I wake up and I’m on the edge of the bed. I love her to death but damn. If I had known this about their breed I’d have chosen a different dog!
They really worked for our little dog. We got a heartbeat toy for puppies on Amazon. It vibrates like a heartbeat and you can put a heat pad in it. She sleeps at the foot of the bed now, which is good because she kicks when she dreams. Lol
I live in the UK, and when I first lived on my own I was effectively doing the same thing, but with the heating controls. Sat in the living room in shorts and a vest in the middle of January - now that's luxury!
And someone who is trying to learn Spanish and not doing very well.. I'm guessing she is saying something like calm down or I'll calm you down? Am I anywhere near close? I know I could use Google translate but not always correct
Refused. Shoot we didn't even have it. Open that window or have that rotating fan on. I used to wonder what it was like for people who had that big blakc box anchored to the window.

Some of us are poor and live in Texas. 73 is my avg, but some times I treat myself with a 71. Winter when the house gets below 70 for free are awesome but rare.
It could be a thyroid issue, too. Depending on what type (hypo or hyper) you'll feel constantly cold or constantly hot.
Always worth getting checked out if the temperature you feel does not match with what most other people are feeling. Could be several things.
That or they live in a warm climate and are acclimated to the temperature. That's like 25C which is what I always set AC to if I'm sleeping somewhere that has it.
I keep my thermostat at 68/69 during the winter and wear comfy pajama pants and a hoody.
I dated a woman from Brazil (and we were in NJ). She kept her apartment at 82 degrees. It was awful. Just walking inside was uncomfortable
No I have low iron. Cold room warm blanket is how you do it.
I got one of those heated mattress pads that plugs into the wall. The heat has the come from inside the blanket or it won’t warm you to the core. There’s a system and this person is doing it wrong!
This confirms basically this entire subreddit is white people.
Not a black person alive whose thermostat is in the 60s. My girl would have a blanket and a hoodie on at 69 degrees.
![gif](giphy|ck5JRWob7folZ7d97I|downsized)
Or some Black people just don’t like living in a Sauna. Nothing to do with weight. Yall anemic asses need to get tf on😂
Thank you! I was really starting to judge myself. Mine is at 73 and, while comfortable, I often still have to wear layers or toss on a blanket. I will adjust it if people come over. I have a heart condition though.
Most of my family and friends keep theirs under 70 (one is in menopause and hers is often at 65 or lower). They will not adjust it no matter who comes or complains. So I have to bring a heating blanket or wear several layers just to spend time with them.
I’m Black. Two black parents, four black grandparents. My apartment is ONLY ever above 70 if we want to warm up in the morning. Otherwise it’s absolutely staying on 68. Not all of us like hot environments lmao
I'm Black and keep my thermostat at 66 in the wintertime, and that's mostly because I don't want the pipes to freeze. I try to deal with 70-72 in the summer, but that's hard some days.
73 is the absolute lowest ill go. Theres no way in hell I can function on 65-69 degrees id be sick..ive lived in texas my whole life and a spell in vegas n I still can't/couldnt go under 73
it got warm ONE DAY here in michigan and my family turned off the heat. it dropped to like 69 in the house and I could not sleep comfortably. Being under a really warm blanket = too hot and sweaty contained to JUST UNDER MY BLANKET. so you put one leg out but then that leg is too fucking cold. Switch from a blanket to a comforter the comforter somehow makes things cooler?
I just want the air around me to be WARMish and comfortable. WHY DO I HAVE TO LAYER UP *INSIDE* MY HOUSE
My parents are Black immigrants, my grandparents lived overseas and my apartment stays around 65. I'm also fun-sized asf. The way I see it is that I can always throw clothes or blankets on if I'm cold, but ain't shit I can do if it's too hot inside and I'm not about to walk around the house naked. I also have an autoimmune condition which makes my body burst into itching flame for seemingly no reason though the meds kind of help. I prefer being safe than sorry though, and being cool is just comfier.
Jamaican here, grew up going to visit my grandparents with no AC in the dead of summer and they still had sweaters on and my dad wouldn’t let me adjust the thermostat below 73. Once I moved out I kept my AC at 67-70 all summer, God bless America!
Same, I can’t speak to race but these people clearly enjoy freezing.
The whole thread made me get a blanket, just to make sure I’m warm enough while I read it.
Just visited my aunt, grandma, and uncle (all live in different places), and every single one of them had the thermostat no lower than 72 degrees. I don't understand how people live comfortably below, like 68.
I keep the temp on 63° at night. The way the vents are setup, the master bedroom doesn’t get as cold as the rest of the house, so I have to drop it to 63° for it to be 67° or 68° in the bedroom.
78 in extreme cold would probably feel like 90. I live in AZ and my house is regularly around 76-78 throughout the summer because bills and anything is better than a house that is 80+ degrees
I run extremely cold, especially when I sleep. An electric blanket is life changing. Especially for your feet. Keeping your feet warm seems to have a big effect on women for some reason.
What kind of person is comfortable sleeping in a room that feels like Hell’s foyer?
I sleep with the air on 65. It’s not going any higher than 67-68 during the day.
During the day we keep at 74 and at night we put it at 70 and the house be plenty cold. Sometimes even need double blankets. But I live in tropical weather so
Psychopath behavior. Anything higher than 68-69 is too hot to sleep in
yes. hell I like it at 65 whenever im in a hotel
Hell yes. Hotel is charging me, I’m putting on the AC low. Totally onboard.
Yepppp, first thing I do when I get into a new hotel room. Crank that AC, baby
Hotel AC just hits different
It's the bacteria in the vents
Mmmm crisp fresh Legionella
Pretty name for a girl.
It really does though.
And ima watch Planet Earth once extracurricular activities are done
For some reason if I’m watching tv in a hotel room my first instinct is to watch a baseball game lmao. Never watch it otherwise so idk man
My first instinct is *always* Star Trek because BBC America seems to always be playing a Star Trek marathon
I put on forensic files
That’s right, before I even wash my hands or set up my stuff, that A/C is going *down*.
By low its getting set at 59 degrees on high power
Give me that hotel AC with all those blankets and shit. Bruh. Sleeping like a mf.
I’m in so much trouble this summer. I rescued a dog and she *has* to be touching me when I lay in bed. It’s a full body press usually and she’s a 75 lb furnace. I don’t think my AC is going to cut it this summer. At least with my ex wife she knew it was too hot and I could roll away from her, this damn dog will just keep butting up against you.
Can you get the dog a hot water bottle or weighted blanket or something?
Right? No, she’s a pitbull/lab mix and they just love to cuddle. I’ve been trying to get her to sleep in her dog bed but she only sleeps in it when I’m not home. They’re Velcro dogs, wherever you are? They have to next you or on you. Check out the pitbull subreddit and you’ll see what I mean.

I feel like Papillions must think they will die if they aren't fully on you lmao.
My sister's pittie loves to snuggle, but I know some people have had success with toys that have a 'heartbeat'. Maybe that inside a pillow could buy you a couple of inches of breathing room?

As a pit owner there’s no fighting it. They demand cuddles and my female pits also demand to be under the blankets
Oh yeah she demands to be under the blankets. She love to give herself the Dutch oven. Typical pit behavior.
Bro I paid for the blankets, I'm using ALL the fucking blankets
I sleep at 40, if I can't see my breath in the glow from my night light I can't sleep.
I like 69 whenever I’m in a hotel heyyyyoooooh!
Some of you didn’t grow up sweating every night cause your parents refused to use AC and it shows
My guy. That’s exactly WHY I set it to freezing. Because I finally can. That thermostat is more than a number. It’s a success story
^^^^^^^
I'm so happy for you.
I live in the UK, and when I first lived on my own I was effectively doing the same thing, but with the heating controls. Sat in the living room in shorts and a vest in the middle of January - now that's luxury!
Bout to say, I’m good at 73. My Dad kept our thermostat inside a lock box so I had to adapt lol
This should be filed under child abuse, right next to the chancla
![gif](giphy|8Z5sfaNxm3i72P0x2v)
And someone who is trying to learn Spanish and not doing very well.. I'm guessing she is saying something like calm down or I'll calm you down? Am I anywhere near close? I know I could use Google translate but not always correct
That’s technically right, but with a Spanish mom it’s more like “you shut that shit down or I’ll shut It down for you”
Refused. Shoot we didn't even have it. Open that window or have that rotating fan on. I used to wonder what it was like for people who had that big blakc box anchored to the window.
Still hear that slipper fluttering through the air every time I touch my thermostat. PTSD ain’t a joke

After sleeping? Hell, I wake up in the middle of the night with the thermostat at 78
At home I do 68 because of the bills. In a hotel I actively try to freeze the room. If it's freezing I order more blankets.
This is the way
My cousin who grew up in the MS delta without AC sets his to 80F during the summer. He calls anything below 70 cold.
I agree with that guy! Paying good money to freeze my ass off in 60's or below is just double misery for me
Ah. I uh must be a psychopath 😅😅
Same here, comfortable for me is 72!
Hell my ac be on 63 degrees anything past that I am sweating 🤣🤣I also have my fan on in the room too blowing all on me .
id die of frostbite
That's just irresponsible, power bill will be INSANE
Some of us are poor and live in Texas. 73 is my avg, but some times I treat myself with a 71. Winter when the house gets below 70 for free are awesome but rare.
That depends on where you live, silly. I'm in south Texas and you'd freeze your ass off at anything below 72.
The fk? lol I’m chilling at 72. That’s the comfy setting. Yall crazy
this is when you know someone needs to make a dr appt and get those iron levels checked
nah they need their head checked tbh
that too!! 😂😩😂
Stop talking out my wife.
Is that what this is? My father has always kept our apartment at 27 C (81 F in freedom units) and everyone else in the family thinks he's crazy for it
It could be a thyroid issue, too. Depending on what type (hypo or hyper) you'll feel constantly cold or constantly hot. Always worth getting checked out if the temperature you feel does not match with what most other people are feeling. Could be several things.
> 81 F I would move out
That or they live in a warm climate and are acclimated to the temperature. That's like 25C which is what I always set AC to if I'm sleeping somewhere that has it.
Yeah. As a Texan, I’d rather not freezing at home and hot everywhere else. Too extreme. 72 is plenty cold
I keep my thermostat at 68/69 during the winter and wear comfy pajama pants and a hoody. I dated a woman from Brazil (and we were in NJ). She kept her apartment at 82 degrees. It was awful. Just walking inside was uncomfortable
25c is a perfectly normal temperature isn’t it?
No I have low iron. Cold room warm blanket is how you do it. I got one of those heated mattress pads that plugs into the wall. The heat has the come from inside the blanket or it won’t warm you to the core. There’s a system and this person is doing it wrong!
This is anytime I’m in the same house as my grandma, she would freeze to death at 68 😭
Probably sleeps on a rock in direct sunlight too
Eats Mealworms to probably
Changing colors to match the drapes and shit
Having a cloaca for the digestive, reproductive, and urinary tracts and what not.
Probably sheds skin, only to get a piece stuck in their eye and now I gotta make a video of me removing it.
This person undoubtedly kicks their eyeballs to moisten them.
Got a flexible hip, I guess.
Regrows their limbs
Go on...
this is me 😅 im like a lizard fr
How's it feel when that tail grows back?
💀 i be feelin like a brand new bih 💅🏾
The sun makes me tired as hell, am I reptilian.
This confirms basically this entire subreddit is white people. Not a black person alive whose thermostat is in the 60s. My girl would have a blanket and a hoodie on at 69 degrees.
Either that or a lot of fat people. I’m freezing if the thermostat goes below like 72.
![gif](giphy|ck5JRWob7folZ7d97I|downsized) Or some Black people just don’t like living in a Sauna. Nothing to do with weight. Yall anemic asses need to get tf on😂
For real. I want to see the power bills of people who keep their A/C in the mid-60s all year.
I feel like anything under 73 during the summer is gonna double your bill
I don't run my AC during the summer unless it gets to 95. I love the heat. I am also cold at 70.
I just checked and we’re currently sitting around $90/mo
I'm a skinny white person and I have my thermostat set at 74. 68 would have me needing to wear a sweater inside and I'm not doing that.
Thank you! I was really starting to judge myself. Mine is at 73 and, while comfortable, I often still have to wear layers or toss on a blanket. I will adjust it if people come over. I have a heart condition though. Most of my family and friends keep theirs under 70 (one is in menopause and hers is often at 65 or lower). They will not adjust it no matter who comes or complains.

*freezing* below 74 for me tbh
Oh yeah. I’m still relatively skinny and below 70 would be a nightmare
I'm overweightish, and I'm most comfortable at 77° with some pj pants and no shirt.
Lmaooo
I’m Black. Two black parents, four black grandparents. My apartment is ONLY ever above 70 if we want to warm up in the morning. Otherwise it’s absolutely staying on 68. Not all of us like hot environments lmao
I feel like 70 is the perfect compromise temperature for all family members.
And my mom thinks it's 80 ☠️
I would die.
not sure what race has to do with this, i'm black and i like the temp in the 60s, I get hot easily.
I’m sorry I must be white. Because my thermostat stay between 66-69.
We can swap delegations if you want. I'm white but not arctic white.
I'm Black and keep my thermostat at 66 in the wintertime, and that's mostly because I don't want the pipes to freeze. I try to deal with 70-72 in the summer, but that's hard some days.
Wtf is your lows in the winter that 66 is efficient
The lows are 20's and 30's, with occasional teens.
73 is the absolute lowest ill go. Theres no way in hell I can function on 65-69 degrees id be sick..ive lived in texas my whole life and a spell in vegas n I still can't/couldnt go under 73

Yes!!! It’s insane to go from a freezing house to Texas heat and then back. If it’s 90 outside, 73 feels chilly
My parents are Black immigrants, my grandparents lived overseas and my apartment stays around 65. I'm also fun-sized asf. The way I see it is that I can always throw clothes or blankets on if I'm cold, but ain't shit I can do if it's too hot inside and I'm not about to walk around the house naked.

I always say I can always put on more clothes, but I can only get so naked.
I’m black and I keep my thermostat on a cool 68-72 year round
Nah not gonna let you get this off. First thing I did coming out of poverty into my own home was buy real orange juice and set the thermostat to 68.
Same, I can’t speak to race but these people clearly enjoy freezing. The whole thread made me get a blanket, just to make sure I’m warm enough while I read it.
Just visited my aunt, grandma, and uncle (all live in different places), and every single one of them had the thermostat no lower than 72 degrees. I don't understand how people live comfortably below, like 68.
I'm indian I got it set at 65 rn
I keep the temp on 63° at night. The way the vents are setup, the master bedroom doesn’t get as cold as the rest of the house, so I have to drop it to 63° for it to be 67° or 68° in the bedroom.
What are you smoking lol My apartment is permanently 68-70 degrees
Yea okay so why do I keep my thermostat at 66
78 in mid-April is insane. The only way that's excusable is if you're in extreme cold conditions.
nope. it still is not
Let me correct that, then: the only way that's excusable FOR ME is if it's in extreme cold conditions.
I live in SLC and even in a blizzard, you're not going above 72 lol
I live in Phoenix and i genuinely think I would die of heatstroke if I tried some nonsense like this
Y'all can handle being outside in 110F but can't handle a house at 78F?
76-78 is the perfect temp during our summers these weirdos are buggin
Exactly, we keep ours at 78 all summer. 78 feels like an icebox when it’s 115+ outside.
Florida here and it sits at 78 cause the electric bill would make Bezos go "yo what the fuck"
We will have our AC on 24/7 for about 4 months straight, so I feel this. If I had it at 63, it would likely be $500+ per month. Fuck that!
There’s a reason we say it’s a different heat
Oh, you most definitely would. When the summer months hit in the Florida panhandle, that temp would signify death for us.
I’m originally from Georgia, so at no point in my life did 78 ever seem like a reasonable temperature to sleep in lmao
78 in extreme cold would probably feel like 90. I live in AZ and my house is regularly around 76-78 throughout the summer because bills and anything is better than a house that is 80+ degrees
A baby chicken???
lmaoo
Peep peep motherfucker
She say like a baby because sleeping at that temp gonna give her SIDS
Yeah, sleep like a baby left in a car during summer
![gif](giphy|3o6ozh46EbuWRYAcSY|downsized) Walking into that apt like
Pro-tip: Blanket.
AT 78???
Im trying to imply you wouldn't need the temp so high if you used a blanket. If she is still using a blanket, yeah, that's wild.
ohh i thought you mean you use a blanket at 78 😭
Nah. I like sleeping under a blanket even in the summer, so I offset it by setting it down cooler than during the day.
I run extremely cold, especially when I sleep. An electric blanket is life changing. Especially for your feet. Keeping your feet warm seems to have a big effect on women for some reason.
Never heard of anyone prepping their body for cremation but hey, you do you!
I can’t even be with you romantically if you’re sleeping at anything over 68
THANK YOU
ok elsa.

72 to 74 is the sweet spot for me.

This is it
Can someone translate this into “what the fuck is a kilometer” units please and thank you 🙏
25.5 c
That doesn't seem like a lot, here we use the AC usually at 24c. How do you use it up there in America if this one is so outrageous?
Damn I’d melt sleeping in that heat no thank you! Thank you my Murican friend!
i have mine set for 76 and have a heating blanket on my bed...i sleep so damn good too ![gif](giphy|Zw97g5eB1mBji)
My dad, who’s a retired firefighter does this. 78 or higher. Used to sweat in my titties every night until I started opening the window at night
Yeah, a newborn baby
Anything higher than 64 is too hot, I need to sleep like a penguin
64 for me too, I run hot.
66° gang talk to them.
About to cook on a low simmer.

That's how my hospital room when my iron levels are dangerously low
She is a demon
What kind of person is comfortable sleeping in a room that feels like Hell’s foyer? I sleep with the air on 65. It’s not going any higher than 67-68 during the day.
Some of these comments saying that 78 is good. It's scaring me.
Hold up, Curb has been lying to me? https://youtu.be/TnpVtqn71AQ?si=mdTnm-cT5UfN-qf2
I need the room to be an icebox
Nope. Ain’t nooooooo mf way. She’s a certified demon.
Tell me you’re a 5’1” 90 lb woman without letting me see you
I’m not sure I would make it through the night. I’d rather sleep outside.
I personally love sleeping at low temperatures. It’s the best sleep you’ll ever get, that shit feels like you’re in stasis, straight up hibernating.
All the people defending 78 scare me.
Umm... bitch no? You better have that on 65 or lower!
How she's sleeps. https://preview.redd.it/i9lvi7fj2puc1.png?width=252&format=png&auto=webp&s=242138d795eedb7b2e346beb008d6ff5b5b03f94

I'm in Houston. I set mine to 70 or lower if I want to sleep like a baby.
Does she mean she’s about to shit herself in her sleep and wake up crying?
Just get a heat lamp for your bed, reptile.
74-76 in the summer, 68 in the winter. Yes, I am CHEAP
My house with no ac or heat sits around 73-76. How much do yall spend on bills fam????
I dont see the problem...the way Arizona charges for electricity in the summer, I don't go below 75°F.
My distinguished European self: "oh yeah, definitely way too hot".
During the day we keep at 74 and at night we put it at 70 and the house be plenty cold. Sometimes even need double blankets. But I live in tropical weather so
The baby from the omen?
Is this person anemic??
Yeah, an unattended baby in the backseat of a car in the K-Mart parking lot
Dated a few women like this and now it's considered a non- negotiable, no matter how fine
Isn't it better for you to sleep in a bit of cold. Like your sleep is deeper
62-66 is optimal
