One reason I don't like cold is that to me in some ways it's synonymous with physical pain. Whereas (weather) heat can be uncomfortable, or be sweaty and all that, cold tightens muscles, and makes me contract around my body to try to preserve my core heat, and stiffens fingers, and clenches my jaw. Sure, one can only strip so far for heat, and all one has to do for cold is "put on more layers" - but that doesn't negate the fact that the cold was hurting in the first place. So, tbthhhh to you, abstract temperature concept. That's right. :P.

for trivia: boom!
