Girls do that here in winter all the time
Then again an Aussie winter is just normal temperatures like 20. Also complaining about short shorts Is a crime. God made short shorts for a reason.,I should probably put a promiscuous reason as to why but it’s 11 and I can’t think

Well, I only own cargo shorts, t-shirts, and flip-flops, so…
But I guess its excusable, since I live in Southern California. But I still get strange looks when its pouring rain or its really windy and cold. (Also, I wear them when I go to the mountains, even in winter, but thats another story).
Can I help it if I don’t own any form of pants or long sleeve shirts or shoes?
12 degrees below freezing? I kid, I kid…
And of course they made short shorts as a way to stretch your inner thigh better before you go on a run! It’s really that obvious… /me winks
Let’s make that the word of the day.
My cousins exactly like that, except he lives in Colorado, by Denver, and right up in the Rocky Mountains. My American geography’s not fantastic, but I’m sure that must be even colder…you two are both silly

In Ireland the girls dont bother with the short shorts they just wear leggings a shirt and some ugg boots LEGGINGS for christs sake (I dont know how warm they are but I doubt there very warm) and I hear were getting antarctic weather now till atleast new year because of a bunch of clouds being blocked or something up in the north, The news papers had pictures of Edard Stark with the caption ‘Winter Is Coming’ And by god it is IM FREEZING AND MY HEATING IS ON FULL!!!

I tend to prefer British stuff over American stuff most of the time, but I still use American spelling because the reason I’m using the English language as a person from the Netherlands is that it’s become a lingua franca and the reason for that I think is mostly the USA’s strong position in the world (for the time being, at least), so it makes sense for me to use American English! Also, it saves me having to type those couple extra letters here and there.
How interesting. I had always assumed non-native speakers learning the language would learn proper English English, but I suppose there’s no reason they should. I just never thought about it before. 
I’m led to believe to when people learn English through watching American TV shows they will speak English with an American accent
Whether there’s any truth to that … who knows!

wow, how did we get off on this tangent? regardless… there is no such thing as an “American accent”… there is only Good English and Bad English…

Correct, Steve! We don’t have an accent, we have many accents. Also, the Brits and Scots (especially the Scots) have fairly thick accents, normally.
There have been many times that I have listened to a Scottish person speaking and momentarily forgot that he was supposed to be speaking English, he sounded so foreign.

I love me a good scott!
As a Brit… I don’t think I have a thick accent! Although I do have a ‘posh’ accent… especially seeing from where I come from in England! (Essex, for those of you wondering.)

Pfft I’m originally form Norfolk - let the jokes begin.
I’m originally from Georgia. As in the State, not the former Soviet nation. I’m a real Southerner. Come at me bros, I’ve got something that I don’t even think UK allows - the 2nd Amendment, the freedom to bear arms, I’ve got GUNS!
I…I am ashamed to admit I had to look up where Norfolk was.
Born a scouser, remain a scouser. I joke. I live in its lovely suburbs, and so have no silly accent. 
Not whilst your still 14 he says really hoping he’s right
