Things you dislike or find overrated during hot weather

With you. Reverse SAD sufferer who gets dangerously ill in the heat if I’m not careful. Currently highly resentful that the people complaining “we never get a summer “ always get it without fail! I can’t remember the last long term cold dry spell however.

Doesn’t overheat if you keep air good either side which I always did, and used a thin muslin materials

Same, this is my happy weather!
my biggest bugbears is seeing people’s ugly feet and having to go to boring work where it’s cold because when it hits about 20 degrees people insist on blasting the aircon to arctic temps 😂
fml we get warm weather so infrequently compared to crappy weather.
We do tend to steer clear of doing very much when it’s lovely like this, you won’t catch me heading down the beach for a day (if we do go we get there for 7am for a swim and leave at 8am!), or heading to a festival or crowding in a local park. We have spent time and money creating a lovely home and garden and these are the times where we reap these benefits so we are more likely to be found relaxing at home/garden and staying away from crowds/traffic/queues. We do feel exceptionally grateful to have outside space.

Sitting on the beach. Boring. Got to keep moving.

Ice cream vans, especially the ones outside school. Having said that, I caved and got my DS one once last year and he dropped it and cried. He’s never asked for one again.

People saying “ooh we definitely need a downpour!”
Omg no. All that will do is make it humid and uncomfortable. It doesn’t cool the air down, it makes everything so much worse!

Ice lollies. Frozen UPF on a stick

Public transport is quite, quite grotesque in hot weather. It smells even worse than usual, the elderly in their puffer coats never want the fucking windows open while the sun beats mercilessly in through the large windows, there's always wasps trapped in the bus and angry, a sweaty/greasy topless man leaning on your arm and a spilled can of coke slopping down the aisle.

Sex in hot weather is fun though, no chilly interludes or freezing sprint to the bathroom ❤️

The mess and faff of sun cream is why I cover up in summer rather than going short-sleeved/bare-shouldered etc.
Get a load of nice light cotton or linen long-sleeved tops or dresses and you're sorted. Cooler than letting the sun beat down on bare skin too. And more chic, I always think; there's nothing nice about the sight of pink or roasted chests or backs.

Agree, I HATE suncream. Hate the sticky feeling, hate that it makes my eyes water, hate that it wrecks the kids clothes. Hate that everything sticks to it. Hate the extra time of putting it on everyone before we leave the house.

I also actually hate summer clothes, I'm a socks and proper trainers/shoes person, with long trousers/jeans and a nice cosy jumper. Summer clothes make me look worse and feel uncomfortable.

Beaches definitely!! Hate hate hate them!! Messy,
crowded, windy, rowdy 🤣🤣🤣
Sleeping!! When you would seriously consider at 3am
in investing in air conditioning then you remember you live in Ireland and it’ll only be used 5/6 days a year

Living in Scotland where we have miserable weather and wishing we had some hot weather

Yes...never the fit guys 🤣

Sorry about your health issues. I was being light-hearted though, responding to a post about people moaning that I took to mean just general moaning, not people with pressing reasons to dislike hot weather.

Things I dislike? Hot weather.

Oh god yes… Has anyone noticed it’s ALWAYS the men who don’t go to the gym as well? Never the ones with a six pack and big biceps is it?!

I just don’t really enjoy hot weather to be honest. It makes me sweat constantly so my hair always looks trash. My heart rate is also constantly crazily high in heat, presumably sensitive to it or something.

Saw a tiny baby without a sun hat on today…

If only it was that simple. Some of us have health issues which are exacerbated in the very hot weather. Believe me, most of us would like nothing more than to enjoy a beautifully hot summers day like everyone else.

My head. I need to unscrew it in hot weather. It does not last well otherwise.

Definitely people complaining. The number of weeks of hot weather each year can usually be counted on one hand. There's around ten out of every twelve months to "enjoy" shivering in the wind and rain.

Agree
Some teachers can be "ohh but the rules "...
Uniform policy..

YABU , try living in SE Wales where it rains all the time. l am so glad to have sunshine. I don't care about annoying trivial things just give me some Sun 🌞 🤣

Sometimes they're thin as a rake and also have a massive beer belly
I don't mind tattoos though.
But men with no shirts on generally, apart from at the pool/beach – mate, put it away, I always think.

Me too. It happens every year, make provision for it and get over it.
