People only say summer is good because we used to get 2 months off during it
I prefer fall, it is cloudy, dreary, cold, damp, no pollen, just overall my vibe.
This absolutely. Also summer didn't use to feel like an inner circle of hell 30 years ago.
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
So very true. Dressing for cold is so much easier than heat it's mindboggling to read some of these summer fan comments. Like, do you guys actually live on the same planet as I do? Cause this one sucks the minute temperatures go past 20c.
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.

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.
❌hot girl summer
✅cold bitch winter
I heard there's 104 days of summer vacation, til school comes along just to end it.
more like 104° days until summer ends
That's a lot of days. It's hard for us all to find a good way to spend it.
I don't understand this, if I didn't have to work for >100 days, I'd have a blast! Our summer break starts a bit earlier than most places (end of May) and school starts a bit earlier than many places (middle of August), and we have already visited the pool multiple times, visited family across the country, done some hikes, and done some bike rides. The rest of the summer is busy as well, with visiting the other side of the family next month, celebrating Independence Day (I'm in the US), and doing some camping trips.
If you can't fill 3-ish months of free time, that's on you. I, for one, am going to make sure I and my kids enjoy it.
It's the Phineas and Ferb theme song. They also have lots of great ideas for filling the time. Sounds like you're rocking it!
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.
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.

Anyone saying summer 'only has good pr' doesn't have winters like that.

I honestly love the solitude that harsh winters bring. And all the heavy clothing I get to wear, the much longer nights, going through my stockpile of canned and preserved goods. There have been winters where I was snowed in for weeks, and they were glorious
It's true, the brain and body need extra care to prevent depression during winter, but I'm much more depressed during the long, blistering hot summer months

I mean, summer is different than it was 50 years ago. It's hotter, longer, and dryer.
Less rain but more humidity
Not in my area (Utah), we don't know anything about this "humidity" thing you speak of. Even our snow is dry.
And I don't get to stop going to work every day.
It’s all situational. If it’s hot and humid but I’m near a beach, fuck yes, summer rules. If it’s hot and humid and I’m in a big city, dear lord help me, summer sucks.
Also, I live in the north, so my options are:
- winter - frigid weather where the roads are an ice rink
- spring - fluctuates between cold (random snow storm) and hot, like a woman going through menopause (i.e. one day nearly 100F, the next day there's snow)
- summer - pretty consistently hot
- fall - random storms, school starting (I have kids), and an intro to the aforementioned ice-rink
So yeah, summer is pretty decent, given the other options.
Got AC? Cool. No? Not cool.
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.
No one is talking about autumn? We have splash of color everywhere, Less bugs, comfy clothes, moderate temp and moderate lighting.

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.

I agree, but at the same time, I wouldn't give up having the contrast between seasons for anything. You need that 92 degrees with 80% humidity to really appreciate the cool down after a thunderstorm. And my absolute favorite time of year is that first chilly week in September that let's you know the heat is behind you--but the frigid cold is on the way.
All things in balance and moderation...
Yeah, I'd argue the real problem is that each season is too damn long. Cut them in half and I won't have time to get bored with them.
80% humidity
As a Houstonian, sincerely,

The fame came from a time where the winters were harsh and summers more bland. We are at the tail end of a mini ice age, now the tendency is to winters been suave and summers become hotter. And, with global warming, things are accelerated.

Winter you can add layers.
Summer, there's only so many layers you can remove before somebody calls the cops

False
All 4 seasons are the worst season
4 seasons
Lol, what year is it, 2005?
You will have two seasons and you will like it!
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.
Hot weather is a lot more comfortable than cold weather to me tbh

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.

As someone who loves hotter days, hard disagree.
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.
