How Cold is Your House?

[dorian gray]

hahaha, im literally shivering right now. i refuse to turn on any kind of heat. last night when i got into bed, the digital thermostat said 59. thats pretty low for a house. but i remember seeing my breath while doing homework in my room back in the ohio days.
id challenge you guys for a cold-off but with the baby, i dunno. anyone up for it?
anyway, make your claim here. id be interested to know.......and none of you fuckers in warm climes can participate.

Right now my thermostat reads 69 F, but I think it's lying. My toes are numb.

 

[dorian gray]

are you shivering? i am.
anyway, it has to be objective. go get a thermometer. now.

I keep my thermostat right at 69 degrees f.

I'm freaked out at some of the forecasts for the price of natural gas this winter.

not bad. not bad. my thermo says 61 and thats in a real sunny room. there is virtually no sunlight in this one.
all my shitz iz electric. should i still be worried about heating costs?
i remember i about keeled over when i got a bill in the high $70s this summer. im pretty much a minimalist when it comes to consuming energy. i try at least.

Yep, since I'm living alone right now, I'm using my space heater in my room and that's it. I won't turn the heat on unless I have no alternative. Right now the digital temp reads 64, up from 60 this morning.

it's less than 10 degrees celsius outside, and my aunt keeps the furnace set to 10 degrees (she's cheap) and the furnace is running more often than not. so it's below 10. Yes, i now have to wear socks when i sleep and around the house.

hehe, my old Socket A processor used to generate enough heat to keep my room nice and toasty.

 

[dorian gray]

heh, bedroom digital says 57! woot! should be down to the low 50s when the sun goes down.

10 celsius is only 50 F. lame! come on canadians, you can do better!

given that oil companies have been posting stratospheric profits and the oil co. presidents just got caught lying during their congressional testimony...yes. You won't be getting any help from the administration.

 

[dorian gray]

no heat for me then. heating and A/C are lame.

Awww man, and here I was thinking of turning on the Central Air when you came.

 

[dorian gray]

yeah, what did i say about warm climes?

 

[NAD]

i rarely use the heater and a/c. god damn apt. doesn't get much direct sun so during the summer it doesn't often get above 80 in here, and the winter ranges from like 52 to 65.

i almost always have the windows and doors open when i'm home, fresh air >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> stuffy shitz
