summer

Every year there comes a time to begin preparing for the inevitable phenomenon that is 'Hot Girl Summer.' This year though, the universe took it up a notch and really said, "How about 'Heat Wave Summer'?" Although we appreciate the sun's creativity and effort this year, I think I can speak for us all when I say, "Universe, we can take it from here, thanks." Maybe things will chill out after the Fourth Of July, but if it doesn't, let's make sure you all don't end up having a 'dehydrated girl summer.'

Summer is here, which means tan lines, vacations, and rooftop bars. But, the impending heatwaves also mean "epic proportions of boob sweat, chafed thighs and swamp ass," so you know, pros and cons. If you're more of a winter gal and you're dreading the impending heat, these memes are for you. Just give it another four months, and you'll be back in your winter furs. Until then, embrace the AC because it's not going anywhere yet.

As hyped as we were for hot girl summer, we've slowly but surely realized that it's a trap. Like, how are we expected to look hot for hot girl summer when it's hot AF outside?! We look gross, we feel sweaty in every single body crevice, but we're still expected to look hot? These beauty standards are so ridiculously demanding. The people of Twitter have unveiled sweaty girl summer for what it really is, and they're not happy about it. Scroll down for the best tweets about sweaty girl summer. 

Whether or not you give a flying frick about astrology, or horoscopes, or the economy (idk), it really doesn't make much of a difference. These trains keep chugging on whether we hop on or not. We can try to understand them, and maybe it'll add a little spice to our life, or, maybe it'll just be more information we would rather not be aware of. Regardless of where you stand, these very over-the-top Tweets about astrology are always entertaining.

Happy Cancer season losers.

Hot girl summer is one of those things that will take place every year no matter what. You may think you're not ready, but you're not the one in charge here. It's a mindset that you can't fight. Once the days get longer, and your a$$-cheeks get sandier, you know what the deal is. There really is no reason to fight it because this is our time to thrive ladies! If you're not psyched up yet, here are some Tweets to get you in the hot girl mood.

We've all been going hard ringing in Vaxxed and Waxed Hot Girl Summer 2021, but going hard takes an awful amount of effort and energy that we don't always have. Contrary to popular belief, hot girls have problems too. Average people seem to forget that we're just like you, except we're hot. Being hot 24/7 for an entire season can be challenging, and there are definitely some roadblocks along the way. The only way to lift our spirits is to open up about our hot girl problems, so here we are. Below are the hot girl bummers that keep us sweaty and sad, yet somehow we still manage to stay sexy against all odds. We honestly don't know how we do it either. 

It's been one helluva year, one that we're praying we'll never experience again. Instead, let's make it one helluva summer, ladies! We're looking good, we're feeling good, and there's no time like the present to have a jolly good time. No more quarantine, no more toxic people, and no sunburns - only bomb tans. This summer is all about you, boo! So start acting like it with this cute little list I compiled especially for you below. 

You may have noticed the weather is getting a little warmer, and we all know exactly what's coming. Hot girl summer is virtually so close we can taste it my dudes. And no, that does not mean we all have to start hitting the gym every day or get, 'bikini body ready.' Here's your loud and clear reminder that your body is always bikini body ready.

Hot girl summer is about being a confident, sexy, boss bitch. Just like werewolves embrace their powers during a full moon, we hot girls embrace ours when the sun comes out, and it's nearly that time of year again. The world is not read, but these Twitter users definitely seem to be.

If you're planning a wedding, then all I have to say is: may the Gods be with you. Although getting married is an exciting occasion, it can also give you a total breakdown. Nothing is more stressful than sorting out a guest list (and having your mominsist that great uncle Brian MUST come even though the last time you saw him you were six years old), creating a color scheme that everyone is happy with, and figuring out which damn flavor wedding cake to have. Beware of turning into Bridezilla in the process, and try not to take your stress out on your girls. These wedding planning memes are for you, so you know you're not alone in your stress and also get you hyped for your big day.

Summer is around the corner, which means it's time to clean out your air conditioning units, invest in some cute swimsuits, and stock up on mosquito bite cream. But despite the mosquitos, the dripping heat, and the guy who forgot to put deodorant on this morning, whose armpit you find yourself stuck under on the crowded subway home, summer is the best time of year —I will fight you to the death on this one —and it's almost here. Yay! So if you love the summer, hate the summer (ew), or are indifferent (again, ew), then these memes will be relatable. Hot girl summer is coming in hot. Be ready!

Last summer, Megan Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj came out with the ultimate summer anthem known as Hot Girl Summer. While I danced along to this banger every time it came on and used it for my summer Instagram captions every chance I got, I was never sure exactly what the meaning behind it was, other than something along the lines of living your best life. Living your best life is also kinda vague, but no need to worry! In the thread below, the women of Reddit break down what exactly hot girl summer means to them, and how they plan to implement it this summer. Scroll even further down to comment what hot girl summer means to you. 

It's mid-January; we're in the throes of winter, and the cold weather is brutal. It's safe to say that my bikini tan lines have hibernated until next summer, and I won't be taking my heated blanket off for the foreseeable future. If you're anything like me, you thrive in the heat and wilt in the cold, much like a flower. And you're probably reading this while bundled up, reminiscing about the days when you could sit outdoors with your friends, the hot sun beating down on your neck, and sipping on cold cocktails. Ugh, throwback. But while the hot weather might be a distant memory, it doesn't mean we can't enjoy these memes about how much we hate winter, the cold, and the lack of tan. These memes are for all you summer babies.

You know that feeling of lying on your unicorn pool float, cocktail in hand, looking up at the sky and wishing you were encased in a giant inflatable coffin instead? Yeah, me neither. But apparently, some did wish that because you can now buy giant coffin-shaped pool floats, complete with lids - the perfect summertime accessory. You can find them here for those of you who are brave enough to purchase this bizarre piece of equipment. But for those who fear drowning and being buried alive, welcome to your worst nightmare.

Men's fashion is constantly changing. Over the years, however, the world of fashion has become more fluid, bringing more feminine looks for men from the runway to the high street.

If there was ever a competition held for the "weirdest and most disturbing swimsuits ever created", we're pretty sure these would win, hands down. We don't really know what to make of these monstrosities, but we do know that even the beautiful women wearing them can't salvage them. For the love of God, let the men keep the hairy chests, as nature intended.
