Minor nitpick: if it's snowing outside (and you can do so), then wear a fucking sweater inside! Heating a whole room by a few degrees when you could just not run around with a T-shirt is just so wasteful.

If you can't wear one, because you're disabled, then ignore my rant, please.

Electricity companies hate this trick!

For real I dont understand why people forget that they can just wear thicker clothes even at home. And they complain the electricity is expensive

But let's not forget the fact that a heart pump would be great, if ran minimally and a small fireplace is not going break the bank. So don't think heating is a complete burden, enjoy the fruits of labor we all work hard on.

Yeah, you know. To pump blood around your house to heat things up.

What, you don’t have a heart pump‽ /s

This is the real answer, with the efficiency of a heat pump you can have your t-shirt and wear it (guilty free) too.

Because electricity is used for more than just heating: running computer, charging phone, lighting living space, keeping food eadible and making food.

Ok, last one is heating too, but for another purpose.
