Do only boring people hate cold dark wintery places?
It's not like people don't already stay up late with the lights on, and having lived in the south, I know most people stay in their airconditioned homes/cars/work. And it's not like you can't wear warm clothing if it's cold (people have been doing that for thousands of years). Maybe driving sucks, but can't they just learn how to drive on ice?
I mostly just don't like warm places because I like outdoor winter shit too, like skiing, icefishing, etc. but in the summer I can do the same stuff that people in warm places do.
