Winter.
Alex C:
Man, winter is awesome; it's practically the official season of metal bands, vikings, and viking metal bands.

i am okay with snow but i like my snow moving slowly and vertically. snow shouldn't ever go sideways. "it's snowing" should only ever mean that soft white flakes are gently falling from the sky, not that clumps of wet slush are rushing at what feels like thousands of kilometers an hour at you, directly into your face and your eyeballs. those are the days when i feel like it is okay to complain about how much winter sucks.
RedLion:
I loathe winter. Absolutely loathe it. Everything is dead, fragile, blank, gray. There is hardly any sunlight. It's freezing. Most of the time must be spent indoors, you can't go outside to burn off energy doing much else than shoveling. Snow is pretty for the first week or so, but then it gets dirty and slushy and becomes an unappealing mess.
Note that I'm talking about hardcore Wisconsin winters, though.
Social Bacon:
You've just got to go with it, it may be negative 20 out but if you're playing pond hockey you'll be boiling anyways. Winter is amazing when you take advantage of its opportunities.

This is like the best part about winter. I always get a running start and see how far I can slide.
Winter is probably the best season because:
- I get to wear a cool hat
- I get to wear a scarf my mom knit for me, and mittens my grandma knit for me
- Snowball fights
- Tobogganing
- Street hockey
- I actually really enjoy shovelling snow
- I find the cold weather refreshing
- Sweaters, all day urrday
- Being the first person to walk across a vast undisturbed field of fresh deep sparkly snow
- The feeling of warmth when you come back into the house after being outside in the cold
- Hot chocolate
