i want a map of where people say they prefer winter or summer, because as someone in the nordics i'd say winter can eat shit and die but the whole problem is that it has already done so.
Winter isn't winter anymore, it's just a bleak version of autumn/spring where nothing is alive and it's all cold and wet.

If winter was actually winter it'd be great, proper snow that doesn't just soak into your shoes and freeze into ice that makes you crack your head open if you dare step outside.
But no, winter is dead and thus summer wins by default, at least in the summer there are some things to enjoy outside.

Winter hot tubbing is the best.

[-] wowwoweowza@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

I can’t wait until my wife and I reach the: it’s time for a hot tub age. We’re not quite there yet, but winter offers us a lot of cold for the joy when it arrives.

[-] shane@feddit.nl 3 points 3 weeks ago

Is it illegal for young people to get hot tubs where you are at? 🤔

I genuinely feel like people who say they love 85+ degree (F) weather belong in an institution. I have met some of these people.

[-] Baylahoo@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 weeks ago

Seems like there's some correlation with your average Florida Man and many of them seem to belong in an institution too.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

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?

[-] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

uncomfortable because you are bundled up

This is the important bit IMO. Being bundled up feels good, I always wear as much clothing as I can without sweating (unless it's summer, then sweating is just a fact of life).

Also, 23°C in Sweden is hotter than 23°C in Italy or the warm parts of the US, because every building is built for trapping heat inside instead of cooling, and 23°C with sunshine is already enough to make it uncomfortable when you're essentially sitting in a greenhouse.

[-] Lazylazycat@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago

Nah fuck that winter sucks ever since global warming took all our snow and left us with rain.

[-] artiman@piefed.social 20 points 3 weeks ago

yeah, and made the summer even hotter

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Except our summer this year has been so fucking cold I literally got sick for the first time in like 3 years. We had like max 2 weeks of summer weather and the rest was rain with temps around 15°C

[-] Anivia@feddit.org 7 points 3 weeks ago

so fucking cold I literally got sick

Low temperatures don't make you sick

Winter fans are deluded and so are Summer fans. Autumn and Spring is the best of both worlds. Not too hot, not too cold. Enough sun and changing weather. Perfect.

[-] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

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.

Summer better because it's not depressing

[-] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 11 points 3 weeks ago

Nah, summer is super depressing. All I have the energy for is to lie under a fan and slowly melt into a puddle of listless, sweaty sadness and long for death. In the winter, I've actually got the energy to get up and get shit done, build a snowman, frolic. Less sun is less headache too, so bonus points for it being dark all the time.

[-] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 weeks ago

I guess it helps I live at a higher latitude where summer isn't as hot (although it's getting hotter every year)

[-] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 15 points 3 weeks ago

I just want to wear more than a t-shirt. Ima go hide in the mountains until this whole "summer" thing blows over.

[-] thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 3 weeks ago

here i am in the tropics

same temperature and length of day year round

only thing that changes is rainfall

❌ hot girl summer

✅ cold bitch winter

[-] RedFrank24@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

British summer is nice if you have air conditoning, otherwise it's hell. British winter is nice for exactly 24hrs if it ever snows. You know that first 24hrs when it's deathly silent at night because the snow is deadening all the sounds, and when you get up in the morning and the snow is still fluffy? That's when British Winter is good. The rest of the time, the snow melts but not enough so it just turns to ice, you're slipping everywhere, it's freezing cold and extremely wet so you're just completely soaked at all times.

Autumn and Spring don't exist. You have Cold, Hot and Overcast.

[-] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

I'm from Oklahoma. Let me give you an overview of our seasons, beginning with

Spring: Starts mild, ends warm. Thunderstorms, hail, tornadoes, and flooding are the main stories here.

Summer: Hot and muggy throughout. No clouds, rain, wind, relief. All you can do is make your clothes wet. Sometimes, I just point a leaf blower up my shirt. And at my testicles. I take cold showers all summer. It's about the only way I can cool down enough to get some sleep.

Autumn: It's like spring, but in reverse. Thunderstorms and tornadoes do happen, but rarely are they strong.

And finally - Winter: Nothing happens in a typical winter. It might snow a couple times in Central OK. And that's really it. Once or twice every decade, we might get a historic winter storm. But most years are super uneventful and mild. It freezes most nights in deep winter, but only just.

In short, all four seasons are trying to kill you, but winter isn't trying that hard. Spring and autumn are briefly nice. The average temperature might be 72, but what's being left out is that it could be 91 on Monday, 49 on Wednesday, and 87 on Saturday. Or it could be between 65 and 75 all week. You never truly know until you get there.

At least it's not, say, Iowa. I know for a fact their summers are almost as hot as ours, but their winters are waaaaaayyyyy colder.

I've tried to tell my wife many times that it is just as hot and humid here as it is where she's from in Mississippi. Dew point is dew point, no matter where you are. It's just that the humidity here goes away sooner and stays away for longer. And we don't typically get tornadoes on Thanksgiving or Christmas. The southeast definitely does.

Anyway, we vacationed in Seattle last September, and - cost of living be damned - now I want to live there. If not for the weather, then at least for the seafood. But I love my nieces and nephews too much to be that far from them.

[-] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

I moved from Oklahoma to Washington, don't let your dreams be dreams.

[-] capuccino@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I am a hot weather enjoyer, I like it because I can use flipflops and have cold drinks, and I hate how people who live in the desert (like me) have the guts to say "holy f_ck, what a hot weather we have, huh". Dude, you live in a fucking oven, and it's turned on, it's like say that the water does get things wet.
