    I’ll take that for sure. Absolutely loooove winter. I downright detest summer. It’s too bright, too warm, sweaty, makes me irritable and I’m less productive in general.

    To quote The Weeknd: I come alive in the fall time. My mood improves, everything gets cosy and comfortable. Fall and winter bring nice things like christmas, hot chocolate, gorgeous colors in nature, nice sweaters, warm jackets. Absolutely love it.

    that is actually extremely my vibe. I used to work second shift, and third shift for awhile before that. is nice that the whole region is winding down. traffic is much more tolerable, grocery stores aren’t busy, life is a bit quieter

      Best part about winter, the quieter pace of things. An introvert’s dream.

    Hate the early darkness because it marks the end of my garden and the beginning of muddy paws and shoes needing to be cleaned before entering the house, but otherwise winter is beautiful.

    Winter fans are gamers and vampires. Or gamer vampires. But Summer fans want skin cancer. They crave it you see. They want their skinflesh to rebel against the tyranny of their biological code, awoken by the sun’s burning light.

    But seriously, winter sucks for me right now because I have to go to work and driving in snowy conditions is miserable. And Summer sucks because the AC in my room is terrible and the sun burns me pretty bad if I’m not careful. I’m glad its only fall ATM but of course almost everyone loves fall. And most people at least like spring.

    The vibes are pretty comfy until you get past -15°C and/or mid-to-late January. After that, it’s either too cold, too slushy, or too grey and gross for me to enjoy.

    Give me a summer evening/late night over that any day. Do love me a good snowstorm, though (from inside, with a hot spiked coffee and simulated fireplace).

      -15°C

      Sitting beside a wood stove with a hot drink, good food, and sauna.

      Especially the later: 85+°C sauna in sub-zero weather is amazing.

    Yes, I like the dark of nighttime more than the bright heat of daytime. Sue me, right?! Cool shit happens at night. Work happens during the day. And it’s hot and yech out. Sure you can show/see more flesh in the summer. Still can’t touch it, plus the surprise once you open the wrappings and see what’s underneath! Divine.

        Def joining that, nice.

        I can feel myself getting happier in real time (hit 7’C last night and already my mood is improving) as the pitch dark silence of winter sets in. All the annoying birds migrate away, insects are all dead or hibernating, no rustling leaves, and most humans stop making sounds or going outside as much especially at night when I’m personally most active as a night owl. When my nostril hairs freeze together for the first time that year I’m positively ecstatic. I live further north than 95% of Canadians so even less daylight in the winter which is fucking great. The Sun < Vitamin D liquid drops. Go away, shitty fusion ball.

        I am in love with this vibe. Shame that this isn’t a more active community.
