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
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.
You’d have to go back to the 19th century for those non-fossil carbon dioxide variations to matter.
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!
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.
What does PR stand for in this instance?
Public relations.
As someone who loves hotter days, hard disagree.
It’ll only get hotter and more days in the year will reach these temperature so get used to it
I heard there’s 104 days of summer vacation, til school comes along just to end it.
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!
more like 104° days until summer ends
I mean, summer is different than it was 50 years ago. It’s hotter, longer, and dryer.
Less rain but more humidity
And I don’t get to stop going to work every day.
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.
There’s only one great season. Sadly it was quite short this year, at least where I live. https://song.link/i/549480694
I only liked it because I was off. Otherwise, I’ve always hated summer. I used to dream of having a fall or winter vacation instead. I didn’t have AC at home or at school growing up, so if I was going to be uncomfortable, just let me go back. I want to go to the zoo on a nice fall afternoon, not the second coming of Satan’s asshole.
Idk, I like summer here in Poland.
No one is talking about autumn? We have splash of color everywhere, Less bugs, comfy clothes, moderate temp and moderate lighting.
I usually just have allergies throughout.
