As someone who lives in Greece, 10 minutes from the beach, I actually agree with you. I never liked the Greek heat. I like the sea when there's not many people in it though.

Hot season is my least favorite, but I come to love the rainy season for being cooler & more dynamic even if it can sometimes be inconvenient
No Anakin, the worst is spring because of allergies
I only have allergies in late summer
I live in Florida, so it's hot but I LOVE our summers. We get warm mornings, afternoon thunderstorms, and warm evenings with lightning all through the sky, it is so beautiful. I like also how nobody at the beach is modest or worried about looks (I'm not in Miami) so you see all types in swimsuits.
So summer is my favorite mostly because of the rain, but I do like the beach.
ETA I also like the longer days and shorter nights.
Absolutely. By body runs hot, and Autumn is my favorite. All the gray of winter exacerbates my depression, and snow is a pita. In Autumn all the goddamn bugs die and the inevitably swampy Chicago humidity is a non-factor.
I'm Canadian in a place with a decent amount of snow and it's cold for like six months of the year. I love summer.
I do live near a popular cottage area so the downside to summer is all the asshole cottagers who tailgate aggressively if you aren't driving 30km/hr or more over the speed limit.
I'm more bothered by the flying cockroaches. They are more active when its hot it seems. Spring and Autumn are best I feel.
Absolutely, in Louisiana.
Clearly whoever wrote this has not seen an oregon coast summer. But don't move here... It's terrible... I promise...
Summer = wildfire season.
Funny enough, in Florida, winter is wildfire see season.
Summer is absolutely dogshit terrible. Anyone who claims they like it is lying to themselves. It's muggy, hot, humid, touristy, expensive. What is there to like?
I just stay inside with the nice AC lol
Spring where I live is worst.
Lots of snow, lots of rain so that means a lot of slush, and any outdoor activity makes a mess of whatever you are wearing.
With the climate changes, we also get wild spikes of hot/cold weather. So one day you are in t-shirt and the next day you have a to wear a snow suit.
I live in a cruise ship town, that's why summer is my least favorite
I like it more than winter.
I wonder what life was like before the summer sun actively tries to kill us.
Completely agree. I hate heat with a passion. My 2 biggest annoyances are lawn mowers being loud and neighbors outside all day with kids that scream their fucking lungs out. Just high pitched fucking screaming for hours on end.
I know i used to play outside when i was little, but never did i yell and scream uncontrollably for fucking hours, driving anyone in a 200 meter radius fucking insane. Sorry i just don't get it.
Edit: im sorry if i sound like a boomer. Im autistic and the screaming is giving me a fight of flight reaction. Often i don't care. But a family 2 houses down screams sooooo loud. Not even laughing or anything. Just pure high pitched screaming. And they will go on until 10pm or so every day if the sun shines.
I use noise canceling earphones but i can't and don't want to wear those all day long.
Gift them a video game console. When I was young we must have drove all the neighbors nuts, running across their yards playing sports. My neighborhood now has kids but it's nice and quiet. Thank you Playstation and Xbox
I can barely afford rent :( I don't mind kids just playing etc. We have a big green field outside where kids play all day and its no problem. But there is a family a few houses down with kids that just scream. Not even laughing really. Just pure high pitched screaming. Fighting with eachother and screaming. And they will do that until 10-11pm in the weekends.
My autism just make the experience a 100x worse.
Hey man, it's your neighbor, I hate to tell you this but there isn't any kids in that house anymore the entire family perished in a fire a year ago. The whole block has been quiet since.
I agree that summer is the worst, but it's a regional thing. Also you don't have to go to the beach or in the water. I avoid the beach like the plague. Mostly because the water is plagued.
Yes, it's so awful. In the winter if you're cold you can just put on a coat but in the summer if you're hot there's nothing you can do about it. Also it's still light really late which I hate and it's just overall a miserable season. It's one of the biggest reasons I would like to move somewhere other than where I live now
As someone who lives in a subtropical climate region, I completely agree
