    Oh no, not the time of year where I don’t need to wear a bunch of layers and I can sleep outside without dying! What will I ever do? Maybe go for a swim? A bike ride? A hike? A barbecue? Beers in the park? How will I ever make it through this?

      No its the time of the year where you cant go outside because 5 min after leaving you have a sunburn and are sweat drenched. Oh and insider your flat its way to hot… Even If you are naked. Climate change fucks us.

    There’s no limit to how many layers I can wear in winter, but there’s a limit to how many I can take off in the summer. Simple as

    I love summer, but you have to do it right. Going to the store and walking across a hot blacktop parking lot is asking for a bad time.

    Hanging out in a park, going for hike, swimming, hitting the beach, more daylight hours, ice cream, grilling and admiring the greenery. That’s peak life on Earth 🌎🌍

      All of those things happen outside in the blistering heat with the sun beating down on you as your sweat makes your clothes stick to your body. No thanks. You can also do them all far better in spring or fall.

      Heat index was about 42°C and humid today. Just being outside for 30 seconds was miserable, let alone walking. Can’t even think about any outdoor activities.

      Yes, but not at more than 36°C. Possibly swimming though… in the shadows, so the sun doesn’t kill you with cancer rays.

    I’ll take the dry heat of a desert before the cold. But, I’ll take the cold before humid heat. It’s humidity that drives me nuts.

      Yeah, but we are warm and happy.

      Y’all cold weather people don’t make sense to us either. Nobody wants to sleep in a cold bed. We describe nice people as warm, icy people are bad.

      Nobody wants to relax in a hammock when it’s icy and windy out.

        Are you sleeping without comfy blankets? That’s on you.

        You can heat up a cold room and a cold bed in winter much more easily than to cool down during summer.

        I think that’s the problem.

        Winter people probably like bundling up inside. Summer people are outside doing things. Most of my summer people friends, also enjoy winter activities, just maybe not as much as summer.

        Winter people must be… Terminally online? 🤷‍♂️

    Yes I will gladly take the pits of hell over anything from Jack Frost or temperatures going anywhere below 70.
