Least Favoriate Season

Post by Asst. Asst. Lt. Cmdr. Smi »

I'd say fall, simply because it's far more awkward to rake a whole bunch of leaves off of your yard than to shovel your driveway, even if you have to shovel it more often.

Fall, it's freaking Autumn.

Tsk, I have no favourite anyway, I think they all have their pros and cons.

I'd say that Autumn, Winter or Spring are my least favourite seasons because:

Autumn: I have a phobia about ticks, and think they may attack in autumn, and it's colder and the wet clings to everything.

Winter: Damn cold and the snow is often disappointing.

Spring: Starts cold, gets gradually warmer, i'm allergic to alot of pollen at this time of the year.

I love winter, it's an excuse to sleep in, wear warm clothes and take long showers.

Summer.

Because the only upside is that the rain's a bit warmer.

(Although a sudden shower on an otherwise sunny day is never a bad thing)

I like winter.

I like sitting inside, looking out, and thinking, "It looks cold out there".

Plus, once a year or so, the rain freezes. (though, being England, it's still technically rain, as it never has the decency to settle)

EDIT: Well, that was fucking wierd... It posted early on me, then went back into another reply...

Anyway, my original intended reply:

*looks at chick still wearing the skimpy clothes on campus*

God, I love Florida... :mrgreen:

If I had to pick a shitty season, it'd be Autumn. Back to school. Ick. But that's the only downside to any of 'em, besides the chicks bundling up for Winter.

I hate summer. Its too damned warm. I have a shitload of work to do. My alergies are out in force. And its always light out even late at night.

If I had things my way it would be winter 12 months out of the year. I love the cold, I love the snow, I love the dark. Not only that but I can wear GOOD clothes and work atire isn't sweltering hot in winter. Fall and Spring is ok. I prefer fall because it means winter is coming. Spring is less favored because it signals summer.

Spring around here is awful--it's always raining, and when it's not raining it's hot and humid, and the pollen plays merry hell with my allergies.

This is why I'd probably never move from this country despite my contrary ravings about emigrating to Australia. I love the weather and it ain't like the stereotype of old.

Summers are hot but not hot enough or all the time to cause a ruckus. Winter is cold enough for snow, but not bad enough to really cause harm. Spring and Autumn are interesting, may be rainy, but you see leaves sprout out or fall off in style and different animals and plants flourish or hide away.

I can't imagine living in Spain for instance where it's hot 99% of the time or Siberia where it's cold 99% of the time. I like variation.

Spring. The ground's all soaked & muddy from snow melting off and all the rain that falls. Did I mention rain? It rains a lot, which severely limits my outdoor activities and that pisses me off. I'm not an indoors person and the shitty weather makes me all edgy and short-tempered. And daylight saving time, I lose a fucking hour of sleep in the spring, I don't like that either. Every other season the weather's good and I can do tons of outdoor sports and activities, but not spring.
