Pretty simple, do you like summer?
I ask because I bloody hate summer, and I seem to be the only one I know who does.

For one, the heat. Severe cold can be bad, but it's tolerable. Severe heat is like the air itself trying to annoy you. I'm usually short tempered, when it's hot, that's worsened to the point where I begin to understand what being infected with the rage virus feels like. Everything is worse when it's hot. A simple task can be made into an insurmountable effort. Stubbing your toe is suddenly made ten times worse. I'm constantly goddamn thirsty, and if water just doesn't quench my first enough, it can get expensive. It even finds a way to have a financial impact!
And direct sunlight, let's talk about that. Probably just me, but isn't the feeling of direct, hot sunlight just irritating? You can feel it burning you, it's like being poked with a thousand tiny needles, not actual pain, but complete irritation. I like cold sunny days, they're my favourite kind. They look nice, and to me, they feel nice. The sun is a gentle warmth in those days instead of verging on a martian heat ray.
And the days! To me, it's just fucking unnatural to me that the sun starts to come up at 4 in the bloody morning. I know, it's actually the very definition of natural, it's the seasons, but it just doesn't goddamn feel right. Neither does it still being light at 9 at night either. It messes me right up, makes me think it's earlier/later than it actually is.
And of course, hayfever. Oh fucking hayfever. I'm pretty sure I've been turned down for jobs because of my constant sniffing because the air is trying to fuck me up. I have asthma too. It's been mild and dormant for ages, but it came back last hayfever season, and didn't bother me until it started up again this year.
So yeah, summer, not a big fan. I like the weather cold and dark, thank you very much. I like being woken up when I step out of my door with fresh, cold air, not blinded and boiled. I like early nights, even shitty towns look great all lit up in the dark.
RANT END.
