    Winter you can add layers.

    Summer, there’s only so many layers you can remove before somebody calls the cops

    As someone from the south I was 100% for this, but now I live in the north and I can kinda see it. But I’ll never forgive summer for being a hot and humid bastard for most of my life.

    I suffer in these summers, but I still prefer this suffering to the winter. Winter is too depressing. Christmas is about all that is nice about Winter.

    I hate bugs. I hate everything being full of bugs and flies and the trash cans outside stink like poop in the heat. I hate having bug babies everywhere. I hate having a deadly lazer above me so that I can only choose between burning myself alive, wearing disgusting cream, or covering up like crazy and sweating even more. All the food goes bad instantly. The food in the supermarket is infested with flies. I wake up at 4 am because stupid Altbau doesn’t allow for proper outside blinds. I hate that it’s either fucking up the environment even more by using AC or heat stroke. I also hate overdone AC in buildings that gives me a cold. Have you ever had a feverish cold during summertime? It’s awful. And makeup, you cannot do makeup in the heat without it becoming a smudge of sunscreen, color, oil and sweat. Have I mentioned the bugs and caterpillars and maggots and larvae and everything, everything is alive? And then, when it rains and everything cools down for a bit, you get earthworms.

    You know what’s amazing? Cold ass dry snowy winter days. Bug free heaven.

      I love the cold, clear, still winter nights when there’s so many stars you think you’re seeing things, and it’s so quiet you can hear the owls fly by.

      Thank you for perfectly describing just about all the reasons I would skip summer altogether if I could.

      The one missing complaint from my end is that you can’t do anything outside or in a non-AC building without instantly sweating like you took a shower with your clothes on.

      And don’t get me started on everything being on fire. The only thing worse than regular summer is a summer where you can’t see the skies for several month’s due to the smoke and you have to worry about your house burning down all the damn time.

      Couldn’t agree more with the OOP.

      This. Heat can be nice when you can cool off in the pool and can easily escape it indoors. Not so fun if there is no escape for weeks or months.
      I love the winter, but it obviously sucks if you freeze to death.

        Hey, we have four:

        • winter - random snow storms
        • spring - mixed snow and 100F weather
        • summer - 100F all summer long
        • fall - crazy wind storms, w/ occasional snow storms

        They’re all more extreme versions of what we had in 2005.

    It didn’t used to be as bad as it is today a short while ago. It will continue to be worser for the rest of our lives.
