Yeah, alright. Winter is a good time of year. If it's not too cold, it's actually great. New Year, snow, fresh air, no mosquitoes – no one is biting, and you don't have to work in the garden. :smile20:

The least favorite season of the year.

Lately, I don’t really have any favorite or least favorite seasons. Perhaps summer is slightly worse than the others. Yes, berries, yes, mushrooms, yes, free time (although it’s unlikely that this is specifically due to the season), but during this time of year, I often find myself in a state close to comatose... However, considering the advantages of summer, even this doesn’t give reason to dislike it, at most, to treat it neutrally.

Russians generally like winter. :)

While every summer I suffered from pollen allergies, it was difficult to choose the most unpleasant season because it wasn't clear which was worse: winter, when I was constantly sluggish due to the darkness and cold, or summer, when going outside could at best make it impossible to breathe normally, and at worst, lead to a few days in the hospital. Now, it's difficult to choose because the local winters aren't dark or cold, and I don't have allergies to the local summer flowers. I don't have allergies to winter flowers either. The only allergy I have left is to air conditioners, but they work both in summer and winter, so they don't affect my perception of the time of year.

Revan, I agree, winter sucks.

Downsides of Winter
1. The biggest one is that a long time ago, after working for a while in the kitchen of a fast-food restaurant, I got frostbite on my hands (and this, by the way, was in winter). Add to this my habit of washing my hands frequently (it's a neurosis), as well as the fact that I don't have hot (I'm not even talking about warm) water at night, and it is precisely at night that I often need to wash dishes (lol). Every winter, I face the following: the skin on my hands cracks to the point of bleeding. In the winter of 2016-2017, I finally got tired of this and started applying cream to my hands, but I wouldn't say it helps much. So far, the most effective solution has been buying latex gloves (it's like a protective layer for the skin on my hands, so my hands don't actually get wet, even if they get cold).
2. My feet are constantly cold; three pairs of woolen socks and several more don't solve the problem.
3. It's cold in the apartment. If you turn on the heater, it becomes stuffy; if you turn it off, you freeze. So you just sit there like an idiot, turning it on and off.
4. To go outside, you have to expend a lot of pointless effort – putting on a bunch of clothes and then walking around in all those layers.
5. It's freezing outside. It becomes unpleasant to breathe (oh, fresh air, lol). While walking quickly, I get hot because of all the clothes I'm wearing (I walk fast, which is why I don't freeze), but as soon as I dress lighter or slow down, I immediately get cold.
6. Everyone around is sick, coughing, etc., and I'm a germophobe, so it bothers me...
7. Ice is, of course, better than slush and rivers of mud, but nevertheless, constantly having to watch where you step isn't very fun.

Downsides of Spring
1. Slush.
2. Rain.
3. Allergies.

Downsides of Summer
1. Heat. The heat is accompanied by feeling unwell, but since I feel terrible at any time of the year, I now realize that it's not even a big downside, haha.
2. Insects.
3. Loud, obnoxious people in the yard. I could say that other neighbors are also like that, but I won't; these creatures are noisy at any time of the year.

Downsides of Autumn
September doesn't really have any downsides, and November is already closer to winter and is similar to it in some ways.

If I could select all the answer options, I would do so without hesitation because I hate winter. And don't forget, winter in the Russian Far East is just awful.

By the way, I have to wear a ski suit all winter, and it's always hot inside. And if it's not hot, then the rest of my body parts that aren't covered by the suit get so cold they almost freeze. And I walk home for half an hour in the cold every Wednesday after 8 p.m.

In short, I don't know how anyone can love winter, especially since it causes me so much trouble, even though I'm a recluse with no job or friends.

It's cold in the apartment. You turn on the heater – it gets stuffy, you turn it off – you freeze. So you just sit there like an idiot, turning it on and off.

I use warm woolen socks instead of a heater. I even sleep in them.

My feet are constantly freezing, and three pairs of woolen socks, plus a few more, don't solve the problem.

My expensive boots, which cost 7k, solved this problem for me.
Pros: only one pair of socks is enough.
Cons: the heel is thick, but still quite high. And this slows down movement, especially on slippery surfaces.

Every winter, I face the next winter.

:D

In general, I like almost all seasons equally. Each season has its good and bad sides.

Now, let's talk about each season specifically.
I love winter and summer almost as much as spring and autumn, but these two seasons are the least favorite.
Cons
Sometimes, there are severe frosts. It's very monotonous and gets tiresome towards the end. Despite the holidays, it's a rather depressing time of year...
Pros
It's the most unusual, dark, and magical time of year! New Year and, accordingly, Christmas trees, toys, tinsel, garlands, holidays, food, champagne. New Year's holidays and February 23rd. If it's a light frost around -5 degrees and without wind, it's very comfortable weather. Fresh air. Almost always snow! There are fewer uncouth people on the streets. No mosquitoes - no one is biting. Calmness and tranquility, and at the same time, an understanding that you need to work. No need to toil in the garden.
Cons There are almost none, except that in March, the winter weather often lingers. And there's work to be done in the garden.
Pros
It gets warmer. Nature awakens. Vegetation and leaves appear on the trees. The mood improves, and there are some hopes. March 8th. Easter. May holidays. A great time of year!
Cons
Heat, stuffiness, uncouth people on the streets. Work in the garden. Birthday. Long daylight hours. Sunburn...
Pros
You can swim, everything grows around, strawberries, raspberries, currants, gooseberries, cherries, radishes, dill, and other berries, fruits, and vegetables.
It's still the best time of year!
Cons
Sometimes there's mud, slush, and prolonged rains.
Pros
