Freeze your butt off

It's cold enough to freeze your butt off means that the temperature is very cold. It's just an expression. Butts don't really fall off.

English Idiom: Freeze your butt off

What’s going on with the weather, eh? It’s cold enough to freeze your tweetin’ butt off out here!

Last week it was cold enough to be in the depth of winter, and now this week it feels like spring.

I’m confused. Is this global warming? Climate change? Is the world going to hell in a handbasket?

Oh well, the only thing we can do is enjoy the warm spell while it lasts and then, go back to complaining when it gets cold again.

Many people enjoy cold weather. They have a great time shovelling, chopping and scraping snow and ice off of their car, driveway and steps.

I’m happy for them, but I hate freezing my butt off for 4-5 months every year.
