Hilarious DIY Maine Winter Hack That’s Been Keeping Me Insanely Warm
There I was, standing naked outside in the snow when the idea hit me. Kidding, relax. But I did figure out that putting hand warmers in your underwear will keep you warm literally all day. Hear me out.
Coldest Temperature Recorded in Maine
You're not ready to hear this, but back in 2009 in Big Black, Maine, the coldest temperature ever recorded was -50 degrees. According to WGME, New Hampshire and Maine both continue to hold the most un-hinged temperature records.
Maine's windchill is absolutely un-hinged. It's actually diabolically cold since the wind comes off the ocean which can be absolutely miserable. On the real cold days here, I'd do just about anything just to stay warm like an episode of naked and afraid. Here's where the butt-to-warmer hack saves your life.

You gotta be bold and confident. You gotta get your ass to Reny's, a Maine staple, A Home Depot, Lowe's, or literally any convenient store and grab a bunch of packet of hand warmers.
You go the heck home, you put on your sturdiest pair of underwear, you look yourself in the mirror and tell yourself you are NOT better than this. Now throw the hand warmers in there. Put your pants back on to keep them in place and boom you're the warmest human outside right now.
How long do hand warmers last?
Your pikachu or charmander is toasty for at least 4 hours. Hello perfect heat hack for the snowboard/skiiers out there. While the standard box I'm holding right now says 6-12 hours, I bet you'll exceed that.
Sunday River will have nothing on your heated thong..wait now I need to google if they make heated underwear. Meet me back here tomorrow for that answer.
By the way, you're not too cool to do this hand warmer hack. Nobody wins against a negative windchill in Maine and you're not tough if you try to. Admit our fate, and put extra hand warmers in your crotch. You'll thank me later.
