<p>These are some interesting Chinese wording and grammar patterns
冬天能穿多少穿多少：多少is one word as a whole. 夏天能穿多少穿多少：多is an adv. for 少</p>

<p>谁都看不上：谁in this sentence could be sub. or obj. In Chinese obj. may be not following verb, but at the beginning</p>

<p>一个人：may be someone (refer to other person), or being alone (refer to oneself)</p>

<p>喜欢上：上could be a 助词 (English has no such part of speech) for 喜欢, means "have fallen in love", or a verb (oral using only, means f**k)，喜欢is the predicate, means "love to f**k"</p>

<p>睡 could be sleep, also, only in oral using, could be f**k. 睡过means "slept for too long", or "f**ked"</p>

They're puns.

1: Winter: wear as much as possible, summer: wear as little as possible.
多少 means "how much", but could be read as 多+x "how very x", with x here being 少 （little).  
2: 看不上 is ambiguous. She won't give anybody a thought. or Nobody gives her a thought.  
3: "... then you just keep waiting." vs. "... then you can wait for your punishment."  
4: 喜欢一个人 can mean "to like a person", can also mean "to like to be alone" (a verb like 生活 is implied, 一个人 is an adverb here).  
5: 喜欢上 can be read as "started to like" vs. "would like to fuck" with 上 being read differently.  
6: 睡过了: "he overslept" vs. "has slept (with her) before".

睡 could be sleep, also, only in oral using, could be f\*\*k. 睡过means "slept for too long", or "f\*\*ked"
