Not for me though! Does anyone else love the warm breeze, lush greenery, and hot days of summer, which can be pleasantly alleviated by pouring cool water on your head? Many people I see online (or even in real life) complain about this season, so I always feel like the odd man out for my months-long anticipation for June-August. I must be unusual for finding winter so grim and unforgiving.

    Summers a little too sweltering where I live. I love the outdoors but spring is when it’s most enjoyable. These 95+ days are just oppressive, feels like I’m getting baked

    I prefer winter, I like snow, I like cold, I like that the mosquitos die. I like winter fashion better. But I cant begrudge anyone who likes summer best, I get it. Grilling, swimming, brews with pals, enough sun. Too hot for me though.

      I feel like summer is a thing that gets romanticized a lot, and in some regions it's probably nice, but for the entirety of the northeast and Midwest it's too humid to actually do any of those summer activity most days.

    I always preferred winter but tbh a large part of why I dislike summer these days is that I’m old and have to work while seeing The Youths post about how they’re just vibing all day

    I'm an autumn guy, always have been. Anything above 75F/24C is too hot for me, like 60F/15C is perfect

      I wish I could afford to live somewhere like that year around. Reminds me of the central coast of California. Cool breeze one direction or the other at all times, foggy mornings with a nice ambiance, when the sun finally breaks through it gets no warmer than 80 on a HOT day.

      But fuck me is it expensive.

        Yeah that'd be dope, but I'd prefer to live somewhere like that in the summer and a snowy hellscape in the winter than somewhere that's a burning wasteland in the summer and like that in the winter

    I live in California. I always hated summer here. It isn't a fad to me. :shrug-outta-hecks:

    Summer activities are good. Where I live, which is consistently 80-90% humidity during the summer in addition to being 90-100 degrees, is fucking awful

    summer is a lot more summer than it used to be. i also live in a city with an apartment. there's no shade anywhere. My parents got a porch with a roof and numerous trees that provide a lot of shade. ain't walking in the hella heat with the hella sun when late June feels like July and July feels like the dog days of Summer of old except it lasts till the end of august

    Summer is the most goated season by far. Summer > Spring > Fall > Winter.

    lolno. My upcoming forecast is heat indices in the 105~110°F range with 85%+ humidity for the next 7 days at least. That means my AC will be running hard and will probably break at my slumlord-ass apartment. Also, no cloud cover so the UV index will be astronomical so I can't even go outside if I wanted to. Can't even do any summery activities outdoors because we can just trip into a wet bulb situation and you'll fucking die.

    Fuck summer. Summer is an asshole.

    It's too hot and there's too much traffic from people going out to do stuff with nice weather. Bring back the rain!

    Summer is the best but I'm generally stuck inside due to work/school, or lack of company. Winter makes me feel like staying inside is justified.

    I don't hate Summer. I hate that Summer reminds me what I'm missing.
