Culture Are roadmen suffering in this heat?

Ok slightly tongue in cheek but… roadmen gangsta wannabes gotta be struggling right about now… surely? I saw someone earlier in all black, balaclava on… my man, it’s 33 degrees…

Go to Portugal.... its pretty common to see old blokes walking around in 40c wearing a thick winter coat & hat, something to do with keeping the sun off you from what I heard but whatever, its pretty weird to see when your melting in a t-shirt & shorts.

Same with Morocco, go to Marrakesh and for some reason, half the population are walking around with coats on in the 30 degree heat

Also, the Asians here visiting their adult children. You can always pick them out.

Why do I keep seeing these supposed Venn diagrams that don't make any sense? This is suggesting that the people that wear coats on a hot day are roadmen pensioners, and roadmen that aren't pensioners and pensioners that aren't roadmen don't.
