The Argument Against Autumn

The heat wave in the region is over, so the end of the summer season is nearing.  Some you people out there who I like to describe as "horrible" are happy for fall to come about, but I am not.  Summer is the greatest season and Fall, or Autumn as some of the kids in other areas call it, is the worst season, hands down.  Here's my argument.  Suck it!

In the Fall, things die.
The world turns to many shades of brown as the plants meet their demise, the dead leaves all fall to the ground to be crushed by the feet of people walking by and kids finding joy in their death, and the birds all get the hell out of town because they know things are about to take a turn for the worse.  As much as I'd like to join them, I must suck it up, throw on some layers and brace for the brisk breeze.

In the Fall, what am I supposed to wear?  
One of my biggest arguments against the middle seasons (Fall and Spring) is I have no idea what to wear.  In the middle seasons the weather fluctuates so much there's no way to plan other than the inconvenience of layers.  I don't like having extra stuff to carry around later in the day because I'm sweating when I started the day off freezing my ass off.  In these circumstances I choose to keep my hoodie on because I'd rather be at an uncomfortable temperature rather than deal with the inconvenience of holding/carrying the extra baggage.  I enjoy wearing hoodies and being able to use different styles to change my look, but so much inconvenience comes with the Fall season and its fluctuating temperatures.

Because of the temperature change people often get sick, too.  Then I have to deal with the risk of getting sick myself.  I go to movies or events or just to the store or post office and have to hear people hacking and wheezing and blowing their noses into their handkerchiefs that they keep in their back pocket covered in their nasal mucus.

Every season comes with its inconveniences, from Summers back sweat to Springs wetness to Winters timely preparing for the outside conditions.  Feel free to have your opinion on the seasons, feel free to voice them, but my order is set and will not change.

Summer>Winter>Spring>Fall

Fall is by far the worst, outside of burning things and making piles of leaves to jump in there is nothing enjoyable about it.
