People have a significant amount of adaptation to local temperatures just like most other animals.

If you live somewhere where the temps change significantly throughout the year, have you ever noticed that 50F/10C feels chilly in in the autumn and warm in the spring? That is because the change from the norm is what we tend to notice, and if someone has been living where it has been freezing for months it can feel comfortable in the 30s and above.

That dog doesn't appear to have a coat, and really should because it is not adapted to the cold enough to have its body directly in the snow.

If I'm going outside for a minute to do something real fast what is the point of putting on all the layers and shitting around with it. Hell even when I go to the grocery store I spend 30 seconds walking from the warm house to the shelter of the car with heat, and then car to warm store. The only real threat is if your car breaks down.. and no one is around somehow. If I were going outside for an hour, sure a jacket is needed, but I just don't bother most time.

I'd rather not have to carry it around in the store either. So I just tell myself that my body has to work harder to stay warm when I don't wear a jacket, so it's a weight loss benefit haha.. same excuse I use for why I refrigerate my water instead of drinking it from the tap. Think I did the math once and it works out to about 2 pounds a year your body would burn having to bring refrigerated/ice water back down to body temperature. (Really I just like cold water better )

The only real threat is if your car breaks down… and no one is around somehow.

And if that happens, a spare blanket in the car is far superior to a jacket that only covers the upper body! Plus with a passenger you will most likely be able to find a spot to get under the same blanket and share warmth unless you are in a two seater sports car that shouldn't out in those temps anyway.
