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.
It’s coarse and rough and gets everywhere?
The women, and the children, too
Have children, can confirm they get everywhere.
OP tried so hard to rephrase it…
It depends om where you live. Sumner is not like what you write everywere. 🙂
Bingo. In Colorado it’s generally incredible. Low insect level, clear skies, great temps, and dry. We love it thank you very much.
Yep. Winter in Michigan is a long gray hell. The summers are beautiful though! It’s enough that by June you’ve forgiven yourself for moving to a place with winters like that, until it’s January again and you’re wishing for a single ray of sunshine.
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.
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.
June to November iirc, at least for the Atlantic
Autumn for the win!

Situational on region.
I’d rather have any other season personally. You can bundle up in autumn and winter, spring is fine generally. Summer if it gets too hot you can only take off so many clothes before you either run out, or the police get called.
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…
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.
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.
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.
I love summer. I love wearing shorts and t-shirts, swimming in the sea, being outside, and opening the doors like the garden is just another room in my house.
I hate summer, I dislike shorts and t-shirts being too much clothing for the scorching heat. I also don’t like seeing our dried up husk of a garden despite best attempts to water the damn thing.
Nice try but I see that Sith dog whistle
being forced to shower like every 3 hours just to not feeling sweaty
Bro do you live in the desert? Or are you obese? Both? This feels like a very local/personal experience lol. Far from everyone has these issues with summer.
Maybe it’s all a joke and I’m whooshing hard but… Anyway.
Just sounds like Florida to me.
100% humidity all the time. Temperatures in the 100’s (F) (>38C). Feels like the air is thick and heavy constantly. It’ll rain just long enough every so often to keep these attributes true almost all the time. Doesn’t matter how fit you are, just walking to your car is enough to make you feel like you just crawled out of the swamp. Worst of all, Florida doesn’t get Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter; We get Summer, Simmer, Summer, Fall.
Yeah that sounds about right. I’ve lived two summers in south Florida and it was brutal. Summers here in northern Sweden are quite a lot milder, obviously. Very comfortable. But can also get very hot, as well.
So a very local thing indeed.
I’m guessing you’ve never been to a tropical place during summer. They’re not exaggerating, any physical work you do within a couple of minutes you start sweating, it’s hell.

A lot more of the USA is obese now than ever, and obesity and heat do not mix.
Indeed. I have a colleague who is obese. They tend to dress lighter waaay earlier in the year than the rest of us in the team. 😅
Offices having AC on when its 50 outside also sucks.
When you say 50, you mean C or F?
Fahrenheit, sorry should have clarified.
Offices having AC on when its 50[°F] outside also sucks.
That sucks for everyone, yeah.
Absolutely.
I can put on more clothes, but I can’t strip my skin. I mean, with enough dedication I probably could…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
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…
Not a huge beach guy, but I live for the summer. 80F is the ideal temperature; anything up to 100 is great too, as long as I don’t need to perform prolonged manual labor outside. Long sunny days make my lizard soul happy, and all of my best clothes are summer clothes.
I like summer. I can wear shorts. They’re cool and comfy.
Are they easy to wear?
Absolutely. Fall/Winter reign supreme, Spring is nice too.
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.
