The sun sucks, being forced to shower like every 4 hours just to not feeling sweaty, the fucking mosquitoes, the fact you can’t wear anything that you want anymore due the heat, the people outside… The fucking beach. I try to avoid it… The fucking sand, not a fan of it. Is scratchy, harsh, annoying and it infiltrates in every nook and cranny. Is not worth the annoyance just to shower yourself with salt water.
Summer fans are not real, no way you guys enjoy a billion fuckin degree weather and sunburns that turn you to leather or the absolute swamp in your pants from being outside for more than 2 minutes.
That depends on your body though. I never get sunburns and while 30C is warm but comfortable, anything under 5C is actually painful. So I don’t get winter fans either.
The thing is, in the winter you can just keep layering. But in summer, you can only remove so many layers before you have to rip your skin off to remove another one. Also I should mention that I’m in California where we get +35C summers and winter is 15C. BUT PEOPLE HERE STILL SAY SHIT LIKE “Can’t wait for the warm weather! 😁” THE FUCK YOU MEAN “WARM” THIS SHITS ACTUAL HELL
I wouldn’t call that hell either tbh but if your winter is 15C there isn’t much excuse to wait for summer.
Best season, weather is nice enough so Ican enjoy outdoor activities.
There’s no such thing as bad weather only inappropriate gear.
The problem is, in the summer, “appropriate gear” means an air conditioned house.
Yes you can play tennis in bubble jackets rifling through snow but it’s not exactly pleasant, you can put skis on your skateboard but it ain’t the same.
In Texas we have summer heat that even an air conditioned house can’t keep up with at times. It can get hot enough that a some home AC systems will run and run and not maintain a comfortable temp.
Yeah you have to manage your expectations and also close the shades. But if you are coming in from the heat, the house will feel cool even if it’s not cold. Usually with a heat pump (and older not so insulated house) we can comfortably get up to about 20f lower than outside, set it at 78 in summer and it works ok, still seems to manage the humidity inside too.
Can confirm. Already happened yesterday. The hot temps are creeping in early this year and I’m still dealing with all the fallen trees from the storms last week. Steamy as heck outside.
Allergies by day, mosquitoes by night, heat during work, rain during leisure, it can get pretty bad. Autumn is awesome, it’s nicer out with no forces of nature used against anyone and the festivities and aesthetics are amazing, but Spring and Summer make the wait challenging.

Hurricane season would like a word with you…
I thought Summer was hurricane season, hence the constant vacation warnings.
June to November iirc, at least for the Atlantic
Hurricane season lasts from roughly June through November. The worst of it normally comes between August and October, so late summer and we’ll into the fall.
Autumn for the win!
Idk summers are pretty sweet! Only time of the year it’s warm enough to wear anything nice. No need to worry about heating, and the beach is a nice place to just chill, the sand is nice and soft and the sun warms the skin in ways nothing else does, ice cold beers, nights warm enough to not wear a jacket, flowers blooming and bees buzzing around gardens filling them with life, loud music and partying around the clock!
For sweat I’d suggest deodorant and at least a shower every few days along with fresh clothing.
Getting worse every year too
Ok Anakin. But please stop taking showers, that’s not how it works. Put some deodorant on and stay in the shades or in a breeze
I’ll take if over winter or the cold/rainy phases of the other two every day.
I’m more bothered by the flying cockroaches. They are more active when its hot it seems. Spring and Autumn are best I feel.
Am summer fae. Hard disagree. The worst part of summer is indoors where they abuse air conditioning to create a dry frigid wasteland.
And wildfire smoke which didn’t use to be a thing where I live.
Absolutely.
I can put on more clothes, but I can’t strip my skin. I mean, with enough dedication I probably could…It doesn’t work that way for me. I have been so cold that clothing didn’t make me not cold. Even here where it rarely ever gets to freezing. Hot weather, I can slow down, sitting still in the shade with a breeze I can be comfortable from 90F to about 100F. Don’t know about hotter, we haven’t reached it yet.
I don’t try to do work outside when it’s that hot. If daytime event in the sun - hat or visor, long sleeved loose linen shirt and pants, and oddly enough, Merino wool thong and socks are often more comfortable than anything else.
Hot yoga is 90-103 so I guess I can also move in the heat without freaking out but they manage the humidity, it’s different from outside. And I sweat a lot in those classes.
Any of these I prefer to being cold, cannot get warm. Maybe I need to talk to Wim Hof, but it seems better to be tolerant of heat, than cold.
I can be comfortable from 90F to about 100F.
I envy you. I am already hot at 65F…
You can’t always put on more clothes. If your hands or face are cold you can’t exactly walk around with a ski mask and bulky gloves on.
I mean, I suppose you could. It just wouldn’t be as comfy and you might get some strange looks from other people here and there. XD
I wonder what life was like before the summer sun actively tries to kill us.
Totally agree. During the winter the parks are empty, no little, no bugs, no noise, no sun screen. The only downside is the early darkness
hard disagree. as a brit, i truly love the few genuine summer days we get
I’m a Brit and I strongly agree with OP. Summer gets too hot and sticky - often even on grey days. It’s not been too bad this year so far, but there’s still plenty to come…
