I went to the movies with BC yesterday. The theatre had the air conditioning cranked so high I spent the last 30 minutes of the movie shivering uncontrollably. Then of course I went outside into the hot, sticky, smoggy Toronto air. By the time we got back to her place I was feeling really ill and it was hours before I was back to normal.
If this was anomalous I might think that something had gone wrong with the air conditioning or that somebody had made a mistake when setting the temperature, but this is my experience Every. Single. Time. I go to a movie. If I'm lucky enough that we've planned for it ahead of time I end up carrying a sweater around in the middle of July just so that I don't freeze my ass off.
For the life of me I can't figure out why they do that. Cool, yes. But why would they imagine that people want to watch a film from inside their refrigerator? Especially when those people are going to have to deal with a 30-degree temperature shift the second they walk out the door.
