Idk, I like summer here in Poland.

Winter fans be like: i love winter but I'm never going to go outside and I'll stay inside in my conditioned home
The last time we had a really solid snow here, which was years ago, I went outside and made a pile of snow and laid on it for about an hour while it was actively snowing. I loved every second of it. Meanwhile all of my summer loving relatives stayed inside and complained for the 4 days that the snow lasted. They couldn't even handle 4 days of weather they didn't like. I live with it year round most years.

No one is talking about autumn? We have splash of color everywhere, Less bugs, comfy clothes, moderate temp and moderate lighting.
I usually just have allergies throughout.

Winter too cold: Oh no, I guess I’ll put on some fuzzy socks and drink some chamomile tea
Summer too hot: Guess I’ll go to the fuckin ER for heat stroke

Naw, light jacket weather is superior to shorts weather all day, everyday

Eh, depends on location. Summer at the beach is awesome. Summer in a desert, not so much.
Nah. I Live in the Great Basin. Anyone who thinks it's a desolate, insufferable landscape can kindly stay away in their coddled temperate baby cribs.

Naw, sweating just for standing outside ain't it. I'd rather have the option to be cold outside and warmer with clothes if I choose.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I was more thinking sand dune deserts, Lawernce of Arabia style. I'm sure you can see the differnce of temp between that and a beach. My point was just to say you can't just blanket statement summer without considering location.

Some folks just tolerate extreme temps differently. I am nearly impervious to heat, but begin hating life below 10C.
It really depends on the climate you're used to living in, the winters here are in the -20c range and yesterday it was 41c. I'm basically happy as long as it doesn't get within 10c of the extremes.

I only liked it because I was off. Otherwise, I've always hated summer. I used to dream of having a fall or winter vacation instead. I didn't have AC at home or at school growing up, so if I was going to be uncomfortable, just let me go back. I want to go to the zoo on a nice fall afternoon, not the second coming of Satan's asshole.

There's only one great season. Sadly it was quite short this year, at least where I live.

For a certain definition of PR, this is true. Most of the cultural associations of the seasons come from 'classic' literature, most of which, in the English-speaking world, came from England and New England. How many places in the Southern US actually get a leaf colour change in fall? The cultural touchstones defining the associations of seasons were written in places where the winters are dreary and cold and summers are a bit hot sometimes but not usually too horrible, and certainly not likely to kill you. Try telling someone living in the South of the US that summer is the best season, see how many warning shots they fire past your nose.

I mean, summer is different than it was 50 years ago. It's hotter, longer, and dryer.

Ah gotcha

LOL 75°F isn't "warm". Nobody is going to sweat from just standing outside in 75° weather. You need 110°+ for that to happen.

I heard there's 104 days of summer vacation, til school comes along just to end it.

Depends on where you are. Miserable in hotter places I'm sure, but in Sweden it's quite honestly glorious. Sun up from 03:30 to 22 in Stockholm, and it never quite gets dark. Does wonders for your mood.
Winter, however, is a cold, dark and wet mess. Truly depressive.
Spring and autumn are alright, but suffer from just a little bit too much rain.
Naturally, the climate crisis is making things slightly too warm for comfort now, and we're going to have to retrofit all homes to withstand heat better before too long.
I know there’s been a campaign for years about seasonal depression, but lack of sleep causes depression too and if it’s only dark for 5.5 hours I’m probably getting about that much sleep and I’m probably waking a few times during it to sigh and turn over. Unless there’s AC and the light is 100% blacked out (not a speck peeking over or around the curtain).

And I don't get to stop going to work every day.

Blackout curtains are mandatory equipment for any Swedish bedroom, in my opinion. There's no way to get enough sleep without them. Sleep masks also help if you're particularly sensitive to light.
AC is generally speaking not required, as nights are cool and letting in air can provide adequate cooling for all but the hottest days of the year. This is of course a problem for people like me who are allergic to grass pollen, which is active during summer, but I've been able to get by mostly with a fan these days.
