NFT: "I hate summer and I cannot wait until football season"

Route 9 in LEH : 6/28/2015 7:33 pm
Back 20 something years ago when I was a kid who loved summer I would've never imagined that I'd have this much hatred for it. Hockeys done. Basketballs done.

What is your PERSPECTIVE of summer? Fuck it?
I'll take grilling and outdoors  
Giants2012 : 6/28/2015 7:37 pm : link
over winter any day :)

I love football but these past two winters have sucked.
Summer is...

Cookouts
family
parties
hiking
camping
fishing
bonfires

I love football season, fall is actually my favorite season altogether, but summer is pretty amazing in its own way and I don't begrudge a second of it...
As soon as the July 4th holiday passes I start counting down the days  
truebluelarry : 6/28/2015 7:39 pm : link
to training camp and the Hall of Fame inductions and game.

I can't wait for football to be back.
Love the summer  
SanFranNowNCGiantsFan : 6/28/2015 7:40 pm : link
But July 4th weekend is my 'Football is coming'warning. And I love it.
After how brutally cold this past winter was...  
arcarsenal : 6/28/2015 7:42 pm : link
I hope Summer sticks around for a long, long time. I am excited for football and hockey but those things mean the cold weather is right around the corner again.

I'll gladly take the beaches and BBQ's and outside stuff for a while here.

Is this going to be the norm from here on out with the winters? I hate winter too, I hate the extreme heat/humidity and cold weather but the autumns the past couple of years have been thoroughly enjoyable, in my opinion. Working outside, I hate both, but if hell is a place, it's a cold one in -45 degree weather.

I hate the summer. Having said that, I plan on moving to Arizona, so I must be brain damaged.

July 30 can not get here fast enough.
Hate the summer.  
JesseS : 6/28/2015 8:01 pm : link
Too hot. Too humid. I sweat doing all of my house projects. I want fires in my wood stove, s'mores etc. Perfect world would be 6 months of fall. 3 months of REAL spring. 3 of winter and 0 of summer. And of course tnag would include trips to my parents house in Florida when I need the heat. The Hudson valley summers are just too humid.
too fucking hot down here to enjoy anything outdoors  
Jints in Carolina : 6/28/2015 8:02 pm : link
Always been a fall/winter guy.

Fuck summer.
I don't even love the heat so much..  
arcarsenal : 6/28/2015 8:04 pm : link
I'm a Spring/Fall guy.. give me 70 degrees all day. But nothing pisses me off more than extreme cold for prolonged stretches like we had this year.

Last winter was brutally cold, too. I think the one before that was fairly mild. Hopefully we're due for that this coming winter. If we have another one like this one we just had, I'm going to seriously consider leaving NY.
why can't you have bbq cookouts  
SHO'NUFF : 6/28/2015 8:05 pm : link
in the winter? never a problem here in CA.
Love all seasons  
UConn4523 : 6/28/2015 8:10 pm : link
And I'm in no rush for the football seasons. The summer is awesome.

pjcas18 : 6/28/2015 8:16 pm : link
and I'll gladly endure winter to avoid the heat in the southern part of the country in the summer.

but these past few winters between the Giants and the weather have been depressing.

I'm enjoying this summer.
I hate summer

Bugs..bees...wasps..blech
Boob sweat...Ass Sweat...I'm sure your dingleberries are a sweaty mess
Everything is sweaty and stinks
Humidity bah
My hair is a frizzy mess
PITA to shave my legs every other fucking day
I have my AC and fan on at all times because I am not comfy unless I am in arctic conditions.

Love you Winter
Summer is the Suxor  
Diver_Down : 6/28/2015 8:35 pm : link
But then again, I'm at the beach year round. Spring/Fall is ideal. Spring - the Canadians/Snow Birds have left and it's too early for the tourists. Fall - Tourists have thinned out and the Canadians haven't arrived yet.
Me I'm having a golf orgy

This is the unsexiest post in the history of the Internet.

Enjoying summer when I have the time  
pinyin : 6/28/2015 9:21 pm : link
Fresh water fishing, motorcycle season, homebrewing.

All these activites obviously slow down or stop come September.

As a kid I enjoyed these games during the summers, in the short time span that they lasted.




Always a great holdover for the NFL fans.
Wow.  
Crispino : 6/28/2015 9:22 pm : link
Long days, light out when you get up in the morning, light out until 9:00 PM.
3PM tee times.
Cooking on the grill, reading the Suday paper out on my deck, vacations in Avalon, the nicest town on the Jersey Shore. Sitting in the sun with a cold adult beverage. Oh yeah, Summer sucks.
I'm fine with summer now  
BlackLight : 6/28/2015 9:25 pm : link
because I live on the Westside in Los Angeles and it usually doesn't get too hot. Growing up in upstate NY, the winters sucked, but the summers got hot and humid and that's no fun.
I've been on the fuck summer bandwagon for years  
djm : 6/28/2015 9:37 pm : link
But things do get easier for me in the summer. I get outside when it's cold or hot so that doesn't phase me as much it is nice to be able to walk outside with t shirt and shorts and of course summer dresses...big plus... I totally get where the haters are coming from tho. I'm one of those assholes that has grown to appreciate the changing seasons, including summer. Sorry.
And if we have one of those fuck off heat waves  
djm : 6/28/2015 9:40 pm : link
This summer I will quickly get tired of the weather. North east summers can get really rough. We were spared last year.
Whenever I start to complain about summer here  
mrvax : 6/28/2015 9:51 pm : link
in Orlando, I think back to my days on L.I. The torturous heat is worth suffering though to avoid the PITA the Winter became and all those rainy, sleety crappy days.

Now if AC hadn't been invented...

It was 58 and raining in Smallbany today  
B in ALB : 6/28/2015 10:16 pm : link
and it was cold yesterday. Fuck this weather. Fuck "summer".

Bring me Fall and some football.

This bullshit is a fuckin letdown. Fuck you nature.
You know, everything about the seasons  
Enoch : 6/28/2015 10:33 pm : link
is different with a rugrat to chase around.

He's only been walking for a few months, but so far it's nice to be able to go outside with him without too much fuss. And we're not yet to the point where he's watching any TV, so it's going to be a pain in the ass to keep him away from living room if I'm watching a football game. I may be a "DVR and watch after bedtime" viewer for this season.

So summer's all right in my book, so far.
Sports are not that important.  
Mr. Bungle : 6/28/2015 11:12 pm : link
F--k winter. May summer last forever.

moespree : 6/28/2015 11:20 pm : link
None of what many of you have posted appeals to me in the slightest. Cook outs, beach, sun, nice days, etc. Yeah, don't care. I certainly don't like freezing in the winter, but I'd prefer to be cold than hot.
Summer is the best time of the year  
spike : 6/28/2015 11:23 pm : link
sports is only useful when it's freakin freezing outside
Summer is football foreplay

Figure that shit out.

Route 9 in LEH : 6/29/2015 12:58 am : link
My work closes from December (around the same time school gets done for the semester) until the first week of January and then I take my paid two weeks vacation immediately after that so keeps me inside for a good month. With no obligations, the cold weather doesn't bother me being inside obviously. In January 2014, I found out the hard way we don't have a temperature limit for working outside or just my boss is really fucking stupid (probably that)...either way I felt like all that time off was canceled out by coming back on the coldest weather day of that year. Eh, yeah fuck the cold but fuck the heat too. Summer isn't fun like I was a kid, so fuck it I guess? My work increases to 40-50 hours. Good money but the humidity and the beach can suck it.

Oh yeah, I love football season. It is my favorite time of year. I know that it's coming soon but summer is also a boring time of year (for sports)...I do like baseball but regular season isn't anything special...same with the All Star Game.

Football season is the consolation prize at the end of summer, taking some of the sting out of the change of seasons.

BlueHurricane : 6/29/2015 9:06 am : link
Football can wait. Summer is the best time of year. But I live at the beach so I guess it's easy to have that mentality.

what summer? It still feels like an extended late winter/early spring  
Victor in CT : 6/29/2015 11:04 am : link
the weather here sucks
Well...  
Route 9 in LEH : 6/29/2015 12:02 pm : link
Despite living 50 seconds away from the beach, I think it sucks. I think being there is one of the most boring things to do, i hate the hot sand on my feet.

Secondly, the half naked girls walking around. Big deal? I could fill up (or release) all my expressed fulfillment from watching porn! :-O

Lastly, the summer traffic can suck a fat one as well. That's the worst of it. Like arc said, 75 degrees with a breeze all the time and it's a wonderful day. The winter has made me think of the true desire of moving away from NJ though. Mysitc Island in Little Egg Harbor is a terrible place to have a BBQ anyways, actually the worst. Green heads and mosquitoes are just waiting to bite and suck the blood from your children.
I hate summer weather  
dep026 : 6/29/2015 12:05 pm : link
but I do enjoy that there is much more to do with my 1 year old. Winter time is pretty much cramped in the house with th occasional sleigh riding.

Weather between 30-60 is perfect for me.

teso56 : 6/29/2015 12:12 pm : link
but i've always thought summer is overrated because - unless you are doing a fun outdoor summer activity, its actually more depressing. i know that sounds crazy.

summer fun at the beach and stuff is awesome but very dependent on weather.

heat and humidity and bugs and sunburn are overrated also.

when you have kids under 5 years old summers can actually be a lot of work and challenging. once they are a little older they get fun again.

i admit i'm a contrarian though - my two favorite things to do are skiing (winter) and playing ice hockey (winter).

i'm not saying summer isnt fun, but if your not having summer fun, summers are depressing.

I work in a fridge. That being said since I live in sw florida I love winter.plus I can still hang by the beach and see all the pretty northern girls in bathing suits that ate on vacation if I choose to.
The only thing I hate about summer is mowing the damned lawn every week oh and the mosquitos fuck them.

Exactly. When you have a young kid the winters can be rough. Add in that my wife doesn't work summers due to working in the schools... Life is great over the summer. Even my job tends to be mellow this time of year.

I still can't wait for autumn though....
