a cold day

While walking down the street, he came by two men. They were talking near the corner store, each holding one donut.

"Cold day isn't it?"
"Yup."

"Hasn't been this cold since... last year."
"Yup."

"I mean think of it... three days ago the sun was shining all day long, you were out in your t-shirt, and now what? My wife has me wearing winter socks to work so that I don't catch a cold. Nasty one this year! she says. There's no justice in this world."
"Yup."

"It's not fair. The weather forecast said today would be a relat... relativ... relativelily warm day. What does 'relativelily' mean anyway? Do you know?!"
"Yup."

"So how are the wife and kids? Everything ok?"
"Yup."

He passes by the two men.

"Good day to you mister. Cold day isn't it?"
[No answer.]

"Now there's one heck of a loud mouth."
"Yup."
