I think it depends on where you live. I have visited places where summer is the best season. I live where summer is the worst season.

I strongly agree. I like the variety of the four seasons where I live, including winter, but summer has become my favorite. It's when I get to work with growing things outside, there's lots of festivals, people are more willing to go out and do things. But I wouldn't feel the same way if I lived in Phoenix, Arizona for instance.

I've lived in half a dozen cities on multiple continents and have never lived somewhere where summer was the worst season. Even living in a place where winter temps meant overnight lows of 5 and highs of 15, summer was still much better. I've even spent time in tropical locations where the seasons are "rainy" and "not rainy", so it was basically summer all the time, and I liked that a lot better than even a mild winter.

I've had the exact opposite experience. Summer has been the worst experience no matter where I have visited or lived. Heat is fucking miserable to exist in, humid or dry. Give me snow and overcast days over the summer sun.

Do you not like going outside? Do you not enjoy swimming?

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I love going outside, when the outside isn't trying to bake me alive. I enjoy swimming, I do it plenty during the fall.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 1 points 29 minutes ago

Hmm, for me, swimming is fun when the sun is trying to bake me alive. It offers immediate relief that's very pleasant.

and where exactly are these different places cause now Im curious?

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 3 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

A summer in Calgary is gonna be magnitudes different than a summer down in New Orleans.

[–] UnequalExchange@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (1 children)

ya summer in new orleans is some of the most humid in north america Ive heard because of its high water plane there and , well, all the water around new orleans too lol. Thats probably why they have so many hurricanes.

NBut I actually dont care how humid or unhumid it is. I just like it being hot. I dont care if I move to the Amazon or Congoloses rainforests or Sahara Desert when I get older but Ill be glad that Im done with winters here forever lol.

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 1 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (2 children)

Except opposite here. Hate the heat. I want to move somewhere that summers only last a month at most and the majority of the year is a winter wonderland

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Can I just get somewhere where it's always spring or fall?

[–] UnequalExchange@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago
