It's summer, let's dress like idiots!

The long, cold winter in Edmonton has a way of tricking human physiology into believing the weather is warmer than it actually is. Any normal subset of human beings goes outside in 10C weather and thinks, "it's quite medium out today, perhaps I need a jacket." But in Edmonton, as soon as the mercury crawls above zero, people like to pretend that they live somewhere that serves more drinks with umbrellas in them. And this produces a few distinct characters you are likely to see around town.
