Not to mention they're the two most nostalgic seasons, by a landslide. At least in regions that experience four seasons. There is nothing quite like the quiet promise of Spring after a long winter. One day you step out and warm sunshine is making your roof drip, and grass begins to show through the thinning snow. Familiar birds return and you spot the year's first vegetation poking up through the soil. You can smell the Earth again. You're flooded with memories of being a kid during the same months, lying out in the yard feeling that warm breeze blowing in.

Summer creeps up and slowly wears you the fuck out. Most of the flowers dry up and the grass gets scorched. Everything looks like shit, and right when you get tired of it all and want to throw yourself off a bridge, you notice the leaves turning yellow at an alarming rate. Nights grow cold, mushrooms pop up, and you remember how pleasant brittle leaves sound rattling along the street. Things get real damp and take on that nutty smell of decay. Some primal part of you gets real amped up for the harvest.

Halloween night brings with it the last echo of life, then the world grows quiet and dead. The frosts come and snow falls. Christmas is real cozy, and then a month later you're eyeballing that bridge again. Doesn't seem so high. Might be nice to throw yourself off it every now and again. Maybe this is will be the year..

Then one particularly warm afternoon you hear the trill of a robin.

Autumn is better than spring.

Spring has too much melting snow from winter and hasn't warmed up enough, so it's always cold and damp.

In autumn the ground is still bone dry from the what of the summer, so even when it rains it just soaks into the ground and you're good. Then the heat of the summer is still around as it slowly cools into winter, so you still get warm days and cool nights.

That's not the game though. Do you like summer or winter more?

I love winter when it's a real winter. I think most people who hate winter live in an area where they only get half winters.

When each day is generally -5 to -10 degrees celsius, and you have a constant layer of snow around everywhere for a solid 2-3 months, is when winter is my favourite season of the year

But when you have an average temperature of -1 degrees to 5 degrees, and you get random flurries on snow that melt and freeze constantly, then occasional freezing rain and hail, that's when winter sucks.

A dry -1f is warmer than a moist 20F

Who are you to call your december, january and february more "real" than mine?

Excuse me but I can only put so many clothes on. and scientifically, one more jumper doesn't equal one more warm.

Shouldntve started with degloving

just means you have to wait less until the time is right to be gay do crime

Walk around in a hot day -1hp -1hp -1hp

Enter car during a hot day -2hp -2hp -2hp

85 is not bad at all unless you have to work in the sun.

I am on a special interest forum, been a member for a long time and it's got people around the world. A lady in Sweden said she was absolutely dying from the heat, could not sleep, because it was 23 degrees. Our AC is set to 78F most of the time and I am cool at that temp, but she would melt?

It really has to be what you grew up with. A real winter would kill me, I don't know how people deal with it. Putting on clothes, taking off clothes, never really being warm, short daylight, hot food immediately getting cold because the cold air steals its heat, car won't start but standing at bus stop so freezing then the bus uncomfortable because you are bundled up, WTF Winter People? What is it you like, or do you just like winter like we have here, the Swedish summer weather?

Hi! I‘m one of them. Though 85F (30°C) is not that much, that’s barely enough to cool down in the pool. I also like 110 degree (42°C) showers. Also, my idle body temp is only about 96F (35,5°C)

I am one of these people. I feel like I'm only truly warm for a few days out of the year (I live in the UK...). The heatwaves we had this year, whilst environmentally devastating/concerning, at least warmed my core for a good few weeks.
