50 Funny Comics About Winter Problems That Almost Everyone Will Relate To
For those who live in cold places (looking at you, Canada) winter can be an ordeal. We all know that it’s coming and we all find our own ways to deal with it, some better than others.
Here at Bored Panda we have compiled a list of hilariously relatable comics that perfectly illustrate the struggles of winter, from the mundane worries of trying to look fashionable while wrapped up in a coat the size of a mattress, to the more serious issues of winter depression and pretty much freezing to death. For our readers in the southern hemisphere we also have the classic summer problems, because we understand that it can be tough at this time of year down there too.
Scroll down to check out the list below, and feel free to add your own winter struggles in the comments!

Welcome to the UK, sun'sup at 8am in bed by 4pm he doesn't give two f***s
Starts going down 2:30 pm here in Iceland... Pretty depressing
It's not as bad as my jeans thinking my crotch is in my belly button.
It's really difficult to find tights that know where your crotch is. The struggle is real
I have always wondered this. Stretching them to make them fit properly results in tearing them. Just saying...
Thank God ! I thought something must be wrong with my legs !!
I hate this and have hated this my entire life, starting when my mom forced me to wear fancy dresses with tights that were impossible for me to push down and pull back up every time I had to pee. I very rarely wear skirts or dresses in the winter now just to avoid the tights! Summer's great, though!
Ahaha, know this... hate it. Few years back I was like - why don´t I buy tights one size bigger than I actually need? Tried. Worked. Problem solved :D
Kent Obediah Hayton, are you trying to get downvoted? (asking cause I saw you showing off about your dislikes in another thread I think)
Load More Replies...I guess in winter nobody knows you're a werewolf under all those layers.
Wait for the second book of the series: "I took a Laxative and a Sleeping Pill."
Is this not a valid excuse? I had always thought it was an authorized absence. No? Oops.
me every morning. only plus is that cold wakes me up immediately after getting from under the covers
She does, but I think her drawing skills are amazing in general.
Load More Replies...I wouldn't go back to bed, but I would spend hours at the window, and I wouldn't set a foot outside :D
My thoughts exactly. Being disabled, I am able to do this with no worries. Sorry to all you working people.
The sun is really busy during winter time! I'm living in north of France, here it's 10:40 am, I'm at work and the sun didn't show up yet...
That's because Apollo wants to sleep longer in winter as well. So the sun won't rise as long as he doesn't get his a*s up there.
Load More Replies...That's Alaska in a nutshell right now. The sunrise at almost noon yesterday was pretty. But then it was already starting to go down a couple hours later.
Yeah come to Australia, seriously we have PLENTY of heat to share *Vigorously sweating*
When I was younger, I looked forward to winter bc less sunlight = more video games lol
'...He found to his horror that his face had slowly frozen solid while he was out in the snow. now he wished he had listened to his mother about pulling awful expressions...'
This is one of the many reasons that I moved south. Might move farther south. Next move might put me in the ocean... lol.
ah, it's the other way around in my house-hold; I'm actually surprised my wife hasn't served me divorce papers yet... "Irreconcilable temperature differences"
My hands can make the refrigerator feel cold😂😂😂
Load More Replies...Luckily my partner is always very warm, so he doesn't mind my cold limbs!
This is fair and good reasons for divorce, break-ups or throwing the kids out!
Every girls sleepover was a unconscious turf war of the king size bed
I'm glad I live in Canada, versus a warmer place because for me our summers get too hot! (I live in the south of Canada, which no doubt makes a difference, but so do a LOT of people who live in Canada, so whatever.) Seriously, I spend so much time indoors because I'm just like "F**k this, it's humid."
I live in the more northern part of Canada. It's not so bad here though. You just have to dress properly!! Thankfully we have a dry cold and not humid! Honestly the small amount of daylight is the worst part to me.. Our summers here are wonderful though
Load More Replies...Even Sun has to take a rest, he wakes up early and goes to sleep late the whole spring and.summer. Have some pitty
My.whole. Existence . Period. Sigh! How can I leave bed when it's freezing, -26(literally like now)and still dark at 730 am?!?! Cruel and unusual...;)
I didn’t even notice that...how did you..?
Load More Replies...I'm born in December but I actually just get more presents than everyone so I'm happy hehe thanx mum and dad
Had a friend who's birthday was on December 24th. And then her parents thought it would be great to name her Eva... That's just evil! :(((
To clear it up - here in Sweden we have "namedays" and Eva is the name on Christmas eve...
Load More Replies...Add January and you nail it. Hell, add November for the real cheapos
December 27th and I can relate. A lot of people think it would be fun but in reality it kinda sucks.
Yup. Have to reapply chap stick every five minutes to stop the pain
Load More Replies...This is why we leave our Christmas lights up until February. The suck isn't as noticeable under colored lights.
This is why we leave our outside Christmas lights on until Valentine's Day
That is because we can only handle 30 days of winter. After those 30 days, we give up and look for the warmth and sunshine of spring!
I have a gorgeous, full-natural double chin, and when I put my coat's hood up, it turns into a... I dunno, stopped counting them at the fifth chin.
Load More Replies...better idea, bigger blanket, cover BOTH OF YOU! cuddle time, plus warm! YOU CANT LOSE!
aaaaw:/ i love snow so very much :):) and i really can not and never will relate to the people who does not.
This is exactly what happened to my husband in the past ten years, LOL.
With 8 layers you might have blocked blood circulation, which might be the reason to not be able to feel your arms.
It's supposed to be layers, not constrictions. The key is to make each layer a size or two bigger so it doesn't constrict your bloodflow.
Load More Replies...Strangely I got the opposite. When I was a kid I was like "I MUST BE WRAPPED UP SO THAT NO COLD TOUCHES BETWEEN THE WARM BITS", but now I find myself having to take things off while I walk around outside. Except my nose and ears. I need like, a wrap for JUST those parts and everything else is fine.
I lived with a roommate who ALWAYS and ONLY burnt candles that smelled like baked goods. We weren't really close enough for mooching, but it was still a constant disappointment. I never buy non-edible things that smell like food because it just feels like torture.
A coworker had a birthday scented candle. That was a long 2 weeks of disappointment.
When I was four, I ate a scented candle because it smelled like gingerbread.
Sounds like my mom’s bf the other day. He said it smelled good until he realized it wasn’t food.
We did it this year at work, I received a Star Wars kit with glass and cup... I don't like Star Wars... Am I the weirdo? :o
Yes. Yes you are. *Hugs Jeremie and pats him in the back* But don't worry, we love you the same.
Load More Replies...well, it looks like you have a lot of stories...
Load More Replies...On my list I put slime, stuffed animals, and tea. She gave me a freakin rainbow loom toothbrush and I gave her a beautiful necklace. Boo
F**k that, my house is 905 sq feet. Cheap to heat and I keep it at 71 when I'm home.69 if I go out.
All /are/ true. And I'm not allowed to cut my hair.. The horror!
Load More Replies...that is why i always ties my hair upin winter and in summer, too actually :)
Yet there is always that one woman at work who somehow looks like the top row.
She probably uses enough hairspray that the store needs re-stocking, every day
Load More Replies...I forgot how much I hate my hair in Wyoming -- it flies around, gets in front of my eyes so I cannot see, tickles my face, and is just generally terrible.
if i put my hair down in winter it will keep my neck warm but it looks crappy so i put it up, neck cold. f u hair
Left a sub job with 4 days left because the 7th graders were insanely disrespectful. I need the money so bad as I can't pay bills but it was just way too stressful. I felt like I was going to be sick all day.
Load More Replies...I have only one nephew living with me, and it is the single worst thing when he's home....
I actually like it when the sky is gray and black like this? It's calm and nice?
Those are both declarative sentences. They require periods, not question marks.
Load More Replies...In Australia this is awfully different...More like bright reds with names such as "Hell", "Wildfire", "Somehow actually melting", "You could fry a f*****g egg" then a tiny nice blue tucked away named "the ocean/pool, our lord and saviour."
it doesn't have to be winter for this to relate to me! im always. f*****g. cold.
Where I live, it's the pickup trucks and SUVs that are upside down on the side of the road because OH I can drive anywhere in this....
Dude, in NC one flake falls in Raleigh and the whole state shuts down!
Especially in Cincinnati. People think that since there's snow they have to hog the whole road and go as slow as possible
That was me as a child. Now most of my family knows that I'm too picky to buy clothes for, but you know that kid mentality: "What do you mean it's not a toy!?" My grandpa used to give my brother and I cheques specifically to go into our accounts for school (like college/university school), I understand the purpose now but he gave them TO US AS CHILDREN! You give that to the parents! No kid wants a card full of money they can't use!
(I feel like that makes me sound super ungrateful, but I hope everyone understands that I'm not, it's just the Christmas kid mentality. We were like younger than 10, and at that point, you're greedy and you don't plan for the future.)
Load More Replies...Last year I got a t-shirt from my mom that was like kids size (I'm not a kid)
I guess you can be flattered she thought it would fit you
Load More Replies...My mom been doing this s**t for the past few years. Buying them damn polo shirts that I tell her repeatedly I WILL NOT F****N WEAR!!!
As someone who has to buy new clothes weekly thanks to growth spurts, is appreciate this hugely
I guess that is what happens when kids get what they want, they are raised with that way of thinking and believe Christmas is more about receiving gifts than what went into *giving* the gift. Spoiled brats!
Not only did she give you a shirt, but it looks like a shirt that’s too small.
Females sitting doing this is funny too, cause after we do our business, we have to wipe... or do we?
Load More Replies...That's true. And this oscilation between extreme temperatures is the main reason we get those stupid winter colds.
Colds come from viruses, not temperature fluctuations
Load More Replies...This is why all my extra layers are coats and I am wearing a tanktop underneath.
Used to ride a motorbike. My friends had a designated "pile space" for all the gear I'd have to remove when visiting them.
Try this with hot flashes... Omg, I am surprised that I do not have pneumonia.
With a mummy style sleeping bag I could make a cup of tea whilst staying snuggled, one foot and one hand out
and also winter evenings, me in this style every night so cozy i luv it:)
"You said you liked unicorns, so I got you a stuffed unicorn!" "Thanks, grammy, but I like dragons." I got effing unicorns for over 20 years.
Last year, I used a green blanket. This year, it's blue. New year, new me.
Eat it like a popsicle :D I used to make tea popsicles in the ice cube trays when I was under 13. Can't really say kid, I consider myself a kid still :3
The house I lived in with my mum and brothers was an older house, didn't have very good insulation and only had heating downstairs, so I grew up like that, always cold in winter, having to wear multiple layers at home. At some point (when I was around 18 and had moved to the attic for more space) we got a heater for in our rooms. I hated having to be sparing with it though. Now I have my own place WITH heating everywhere xD Never been happier about heating lol. I still wear a sweater at home but I'm not gonna wear 10 layers to be comfy so I just turn up the heat :D
I feel ya. I lived in a place with only window units and no heat.
Load More Replies...I'll turn on the heat long enough to warm my clothes before I put them on. Have indoor hats, fingerless gloves and a giant full length fleece poncho. Would turn on the heat if I could afford it
I could so NOT be a pioneer in ND and Little House on the Prairie actually freaked me out on that winter part.
that is my dad. as long as he is not cold than no one can turn the heat on. So annoying.
I grew up with a dad would could not stand the noise so no heater. And now my daughter has severe asthma and the heater makes her worse. So still no heat for me but the house is well insulated and we manage.
European Parliament is looking into stopping daylight saving time. Thank God: I wake up at five and can't keep myself up and awake past nine.
It sucks especially for Spain (and France too, technically). They are in the same time zone as the rest of continental EU. That means that even during the normal time setting (which is Winter time), the highest point of the sun, which should be at 12 o'clock, is instead at 11 o'clock in Winter, and 10 o'clock in Summer. And a tiny part of spain, in the north west even has a 2 difference from actual solar time in winter, and a 3 hour difference in summer. They are on the same longitude as the UK, and should have the same time zone, but they get central european instead because someone (might not even have been the EUs idea) thought it a swell idea to mash most of continental Europe, into one time zone. Not Portugal though. Similar s**t is happening in China, and that is just one country.
Load More Replies...Nothing happens to me. I sleep as I always do. And I do like daylight saving time. (Yes I'm from Northern Europe.)
Me three... always get a stiff neck from wearing a scarf
Load More Replies...“If you wear a turtle neck with a backpack, it’s like a weak midget trying to bring you down.” - Mitch Hedberg
i kind of feel the opposite as scarves are itchy but when i wear a turle neck people say that from a distance i look like i have a broken neck
I try to put them in the same pocket each time, otherwise I'll convince myself I dropped them whilst walking the dog and have to go back looking for them
I think the worst is the front of the neck, just over the jugular & arteries.
Load More Replies...Yep. Had that same feeling after the first couple snows. Then there was the time when I accidentally locked myself out of the house having gone to check the mail. I had a sweater on. Had to flee to the public library down the street and call my roommate.
Always have a hide-a-key somewhere outside. Just DON'T put it in an obvious place thieves will look!
Load More Replies...nope. snow is ALWAYS a novelty where I am... at least for the kids ^-^
That's the worst. And I've realized I use so many more clothes in the winter, I'm always hanging up sweaters and coats and picking up socks. Drives a woman mad!
Load More Replies...It’s. Expensive to heat your home or apartment. Turn thermostat down at nite for sleeping, if you turn it up to get ready for work, it just gets warm when you leave the house, so you turn it down, as you will be gone all day. Come home to a cold house, turn it up, and 3 hours later it’s time for bed again. Might as well live cold in winter. Cheaper.
Mine went in for five seconds. then stayed inside for24 hours
Load More Replies...My Mom's cat ran outside, and although she spends her days staring outside, evidently had no idea outside was covered with snow. She turned around and ran back inside! LOL
We sell a lot of iced coffees at my work place.
Load More Replies...I have to get cold coffee... even in winter. Because otherwise I burn my tongue to the point where it's totally numb. Guaranteed. EVERY DAMNED TIME.
Well... To be honest... I could go for an Oreo shake right now...
Load More Replies...Practical > looks though. I always see everyone wearing pretty coats and outfits in winter, which tbh don't really look that warm or that have the ability to add more layers underneath :P And usually anything like those isn't in my size anyway (always handy being tall and having long arms...) so I just got a warm ski-jacket. Totally warm, can wear another sweater underneath and it's great for on my bike. Might not be really fashionable but I'm warm so who cares!
I've been seeing girls in Portland the past couple weeks still wearing miniskirts! I WOULD DIE.
Load More Replies...She thought she did great by spending a little more, while he outdid her a lot.
Load More Replies...My neighborhood isn't really considered particularly Jewish (well, I am, but still), but I can say honestly that close to NOBODY puts up Christmas lights.
That was literally today... 8c degrees in the morning, 19c at noon... So nice NOT
Where I live that was yesterday! 3ºC at 10 in the morning and then around 15 or 16ºC at lunchtime.
Load More Replies...areas round here get upwards rain and snow. Next to sea and very windy. No using umbrellas, need full waterproofs and face cover
yeah, I'm in Arizona, 70° is cold. my apartment is at 72 and I'm still a bit chilly, but I'm saving up for summer.
Load More Replies...Must be from Southern California... i know because this is me.. bundling up in 70 degree weather.. with wildfires outside not snow flurries.
Not anymore. At least not in MN. We had a thunderstorm in November last year!
so true, that's why I don't buy fall oriented clothing, even though it is cute (unless I can come up with something to add to keep me warm.
Nope, I always love summer. I am the one who at the start of autumn goes "Damn, here comes winter again, I hate the cold. If it would at least be bad weather OR darkness, but no, it has to be both." (Snow counts as good weather, by the way). My classmates all went "Oh, but it's nice to finally have some coolness after summer. We like it a lot more.". A month later, they were all "Oooh, it's so cold, when is this going to end?". And I actually said "I told you so." Never forget.
women are more sensible to external temperatures because of the fact that blood is running closer to the surface of the skin, making us more "cold blooded" and depending on weather. WE ASK EQUALITY!!!!
One time here in NJ a few years ago, we had no winter. December? Eighty degrees. January? Seventy degrees. February? Sixty degrees. March? Sixty degrees. Etc. Etc. Etc.
This is something that I do not miss. I used to live in NY/PA. Now I am in the south. No need for a snow shovel, thank the good Lord.
She hasn't washed her tights for ages and she thinks it's ok because the Victorians would have smelt worse.
Load More Replies...At which point, they try all the other doors. Including the hall closet.
My son was at clothing level Dafuq until he was about 26. He'd wear a hoodie. If it got REALLY cold, like -5F, then he'd finally cave and put the hood UP, but only if it was also windy.
And yes, a lot of times, he wore shorts. They switched my real son with a furnace at birth.
Load More Replies...Actually saw that once, showed a hockey game and players fighting. One player fell right when a player went to skate past him and took of three fingers.
Is that a sore throat? Maybe it's my imagination...no it feels sore...well maybe not...oh no am I going to sneeze... no false alarm...ahh chooo. ...ugh I am sick...
august is long aswell for it's damn hot weather and sweat coming with it :(
Didn't knew the story of that ship, just went to read it, that's interesting...
Head (helmet) +300C Neck (the Siberian guillotine) -500C Top of body (jacket) +50.5C Gut (between the bottom of your jacket and top of your pants) -150C Fingers (gloves) -200C Butt +45C Knees -20C Feet (shoes) - 2000C
These are all so relatable! As usual, Bored Panda's favourite artists did a really great job and I had a very good laugh.
Suh-no? Whaaaa is this suh-no you b***h about? Never heard of it. Also seasons are real? I thought that was fairy tale nonsense. Florida, where the seasons are Hot, F*****g hot, Surface of the sun and damn I hate how crowded the beach gets on Christmas.
well, i live in singapore, so i've never really experienced theses 'winters' you speak of... sounds terrible, though.
NZ and Australia is sitting here listening to all you Americans and Canadians and British complain about how cold it is in December while we melt into puddles. Yaaay NZ. I frickkin hate summer. (Also, thanks to America, NZ has a giant hole in the ozone layer above us and it was hot enough for us to get summer fruit halfway through spring)
I'm from San Diego. I went to grad school in Boston for 18 months of my life, and experienced a real winter for the first time. Below zero wind chills, slipping on ice, unburying my car from 3+ feet of snow. The whole shebang.
Christmas Day usually is a water fun day in straya. Above 40 degrees Celsius is the norm. Luckily it's been mostly cool this summer 20 - 30 in WA
I'm sure you and glassofwater are fine people but I hate you and hope you get sunburned.
