So It's Snowing Here

*imitates Ducky* Yup, yup, yup!

 

Snow in Winter? Never!

Don't speak such blasphemous nonsense, Amaury.

 

it's not winter

 

I hate summer

 

What is it then?

 

autumn/fall

Winter doesn't start till December 21st.

 

This, this, this!

 

Notice how that is for the US.

 

I say it's winter when there's f*cking Christmas songs playing on the radio waaaaay before it's even Christmas time.

 

what the **** is a ducky

 

Ok, but I'm not in the UK, and neither is Amaury, so that doesn't apply to us.

 

But it applies to the way I think about these things, therefore your argument against me is invalid, along with mine against yours.

Although to be honest it's winter all year round in the UK.

 

So, US (hyphens indicate to, not through):

March 21 - June 21: Spring
June 21 - September 21: Summer
September 21 - December 21: Autumn
December 21 - March 21: Winter

What's it for you guys, then?

 

That's what I was going to ask.

How do your seasons work, if you don't decide when they start based on dates, wouldn't thank make them uneven and disorganized?

 

Four seasons spread about twelve months.

Nov-Jan: Winter
Feb-Apr: Spring
May-July: Summer
Aug-Oct: Autumn

 

It is in Scotland. We have June and Winter. That's all.

 

I'll be sure to knit you a hat, too.

 

First, you're wrong here because solstices and equinoxes doesn't always fall on the 21st of the month, it changes on a yearly basis.

Second, there's also the fact that astronomic and meteorological winter, both actual terms that real humans use, are different. You only seem to care about the meaningless arbitrary construct, astronomical winter, because you like to follow the 'rules' even if you have basically no understanding of them. You should really think more about why things are how they are rather than just deciding that they are and that they cannot be challenged.

 

Yup .

 

Agreed! And it's christmas when Santa appears in the coca cola adverts : D
