The sun sucks, being forced to shower like every 4 hours just to not feeling sweaty, the fucking mosquitoes, the fact you can't wear anything that you want anymore due the heat, the people outside... The fucking beach. I try to avoid it... The fucking sand, not a fan of it. Is scratchy, harsh, annoying and it infiltrates in every nook and cranny. Is not worth the annoyance just to shower yourself with salt water.

Completely agree. I hate heat with a passion. My 2 biggest annoyances are lawn mowers being loud and neighbors outside all day with kids that scream their fucking lungs out. Just high pitched fucking screaming for hours on end.

I know i used to play outside when i was little, but never did i yell and scream uncontrollably for fucking hours, driving anyone in a 200 meter radius fucking insane. Sorry i just don't get it.

Edit: im sorry if i sound like a boomer. Im autistic and the screaming is giving me a fight of flight reaction. Often i don't care. But a family 2 houses down screams sooooo loud. Not even laughing or anything. Just pure high pitched screaming. And they will go on until 10pm or so every day if the sun shines.

I use noise canceling earphones but i can't and don't want to wear those all day long.

Gift them a video game console. When I was young we must have drove all the neighbors nuts, running across their yards playing sports. My neighborhood now has kids but it's nice and quiet. Thank you Playstation and Xbox

I can barely afford rent :( I don't mind kids just playing etc. We have a big green field outside where kids play all day and its no problem. But there is a family a few houses down with kids that just scream. Not even laughing really. Just pure high pitched screaming. Fighting with eachother and screaming. And they will do that until 10-11pm in the weekends.

My autism just make the experience a 100x worse.

Hey man, it's your neighbor, I hate to tell you this but there isn't any kids in that house anymore the entire family perished in a fire a year ago. The whole block has been quiet since.
