Perform an energy check on your abode. Make sure you have double or triple paned windows, weather stripping around the doors and windows that can be opened, LED light bulbs, etc. Is your insulation at the proper R number? There are other things you can do as a family project. And don’t mention the thermostat. And get on a “Balanced Bill” program. Your energy bills are averaged over a year and reviewed quarterly. Avoid surprises. There are studies out there using science and math that show due to different metabolisms and fat distribution over their bodies, men and women react to heat and cold differently.

How about just “At whom should I yell?” which also avoids ending the sentence with “at.”
Georgette Washington Bunny over 3 years ago
“Who,” and you can drop the “to”.

The cat. Yeah, blame the cat. If the cat can leap onto the mantle in a single bound (like our cats) then he/she can reach the thermostat.

Leave it alone; the womenfolk look comfortable. You will only dig yourself a deep hole, from which there will be no escape.

Either way, it looks like a disaster is about to occur in 3…2…1…

Lock the limits on the thermostat. Now they may play with it all they want but it will not change .

Whom the #!@*! is going to get a 2nd job to pay for all of this comfort?
I agree with Mr. Lime above. It’s just a thermostat, leave it alone, or try to find something with which you can both be comfortable.

Trick question! Neither is correct. Grammatically, it would to “at whom should i yell?” (no “to”). Spiritually, it doesn’t need to be said.

You can say “to who” if you’re an owl.

Go to your own cave and turn on the air conditioner.

Well, lets see. Two of them (three counting the cat) and one of you. Majority rules.

Either way, (neither way?) it won’t stop the cat from setting the thermostat where it will.

It’s an awkward sentence either way.
thejanith Premium Member over 3 years ago
Nope! “At whom.” It’s always “whom” if the individual is on the receiving end of something, and a few other times, too.
PO' DAWG over 3 years ago
I haven’t touched the thermostat since the women moved out and the bathroom is never out of bathroom tissue. Just sayin’

“At whom should I yell….”
Corpse Horn Light Premium Member over 3 years ago
Neither. The word “to” is unnecessary, and should be omitted.
And it’s “whom.”
Moonkey Premium Member over 3 years ago
Touch my thermostat, try to make me cold, and you’d better not fall asleep. Ever.
spaced man spliff over 3 years ago
Are you prepositioning me for a conjunction?
Andrew Sleeth over 3 years ago
Neither. It’s, “At whom should I yell for yada yada yada.”

Neither. Rather “At whom should I yell …”

It’ll be for whom the bell tolls if you yell at the wrong person.
