27 Hot n' Sweaty Memes for Mere Mortals Who Hate Summer

When you're going on your 8th straight day of weather over a hundred degrees, you start to wonder why anyone really likes summer. This hellish period of the year is the bane of everyone's existence, but Mexico-filter movies, Southern California liars, and whimsical memories of school breaks have tainted the reality of summer. It's just too dang hot! At least for mortal humans living in hellacious environments, we have AC.

Summertime deserts turn into a wasteland of dust and hairdryer winds, while in the South, the humidity and bugs alone are enough to make you flee to the indoors. Mountains get dry and full of wildfires, while the beaches and lakes crowd with screeching tourists and overpriced water sport rental companies. Goths, the elderly, parents, and basically every living person during peak summer can agree that we're really starting to get over this whole 'sun-at-its-apex' thing. Let's go back to short days and long nights, crisp mornings and pumpkin spice. Until then, we've got to endure the very last of sunscreen-scented purgatory, while we sweat out our body weight in H2O.

Keep scrolling to avoid the treacherous outdoor world of this hellish summer. If you wait it out while absorbing the AC, we'll be reaching fresh and lovely autumn in no time. Not to mention, everyone's favorite spooky holiday… iykyk.
