Bad Things About Summertime - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I like summer. I get to wear sandles, the sun shines, no snow.

But like everything else, there are drawbacks. What are some of yours?

1. CONSTRUCTION. I'm going to play hell getting to work. All 3 ways to get there are under construction until at least fall.

2. Bugs. I just hate bugs, especially in the house.

-MOSQUITOS. Mosquitos must die.

-When it gets over like...90...I hate that.

-you get bored a lot...but eh, I'm always bored

Other than that, it's the best season in the world ever.

3. The scorching hot temps!! Humidity is a major culprit, too. Up here in July and August, the humidity gets SO bad, it could feel like 120 degrees one day even if it's only 90 degrees outside.

I went to a wedding in July 2001 when it was only 85 outside but the humidity was way off the charts...OMG....there was NO A/C AT ALL in the church. I wanted to die.

I don't particularly care for summer, anyhow. I'd much rather be in cold weather. But here are the top things I hate about summer:

1.) SNAKES!! They are everywhere around here in the summer.
2.) Shorts, tank tops, swimsuits- I don't like summertime clothes...I prefer long sleeves and sweaters.
3.) Hot temperatures- I can stand the cold much more than the heat.
4.) Long days- I'm just a night time person.

Midwest humidity sucks!

I hate the insects........especially mosquitos and ticks.

I hate the humidity which makes it unbearable at times.

And I hate poison ivy, which I always seem to get during the summer months.

Southeast does too. It can feel like the rainforest around here somedays. So stuffy and the airs so damp, but really really hot.

How could I forget that? I'm like the world's worst for poison ivy. I usually have to get shots when I get it.

Summer Time in California means TOURISTS that seem to take over the beaches and the famous landmarks like Diseneyland and SeaWorld; the traffic on the freeways are like parking lots and the mobs at the beaches are horrendous; but I love the fact that it stays light outside til 9 PM..and summertime means travelling time..So I usually leave over-crowded California for places like Four Corners Nationall Park or camping in the mountains

The shots seem to have no effect on me, because I still wind up getting it.

I HATE summer. The only thing good about it is that college gets out in May. I hate it when it gets over 80 degrees (the humidity here is awful!). I hate the bugs, ALL bugs. I hate summer clothing. I would much rather wear a nice sweater than a polo. I love the cold AND snow. In the winter I even keep the heat from coming into my room by closing the vent and sometimes I even run the fan! I know this sounds nuts.
