Interesting how divergent perspectives can be on this. Your dystopian view is my utopian view. As a California native, I literally exclaim "it's a beautiful day!" every single morning when I look outside and see it's perfectly sunny and blue.
For someone who probably has mild seasonal affective disorder, sunny days really make a considerable boost in my mood.
- noir_lord 9y agoI live in the North of England, day after day of blue sky/sunny days would drive me crazy inside a couple of weeks. I like rapidly changing weather.

- SEJeff 9y agoI lived in Los Angeles for 6 years and in fact worked in Santa Monica. Being from Kentucky, where we have stunningly gorgeous fall leaves, I found the constant brown grass and palm trees to be depressing. None of the firey reds, oranges, or yellows you get from maple and oak trees. No white christmas, just brown mostly dead plants unless you go to beverly hills where they use far too much potable water simply on their lawns, etc. The weather in Los Angeles is quite nice. I worked at 2nd & Colorado (the floors above the McDonalds are office space). My wife and I would meet there, walk to the pier to get a churro, and then have a nice dinner at the promenade a few times per week. Super nice for a vacation, but still I did miss actual weather or the beauty of a thunderstorm. Different strokes for different folks I suppose!
