Summer Thinks They're in D.C.: A Hilarious Case of Mistaken Identity (Kind Of)
Ah, summer. The season of sunshine, sandals, and...apparently, delusions of grandeur? That's right, folks, it seems summer has developed a peculiar case of believing it's the capital of the United States. But before you call the metaphorical fashion police (because let's face it, those heat waves are a crime against comfortable clothing), let's dig into this bizarre identity crisis.

| What Makes Summer Think They Are In Washington D.c |
Exhibit A: The Temperature Tantrum
Summer rolls in with all the subtlety of a politician on a fundraising spree. Temperatures soar, and suddenly everyone's convinced they've sprouted gills. Is this a deliberate attempt to recreate the swampy atmosphere of Washington D.C.? We may never know, but conspiracy theorists are having a field day.
Breaking News: Scientists are scrambling to determine if this is a ploy by Big Ice Cream to boost sales. More on this at 11...or whenever you can pry yourself off the sweaty couch.
Exhibit B: The Perpetual Press Conference
Speaking of pronouncements, summer seems to be holding a never-ending press conference. Every afternoon, the skies open up, unleashing a downpour that would make even the most seasoned politician sweat (though that's probably from dodging accusations, not the heat). Is this summer's way of mimicking those dramatic speeches on the Capitol steps?
QuickTip: Keep going — the next point may connect.
Side Note: If summer is trying to make a point with these rainstorms, we'd suggest using a bullhorn. It's hard to hear a political tirade over the sound of thunder.
Summer's Defense: It's All About Power
Maybe there's some truth to the whole D.C. dream. After all, summer wields immense power. It dictates what we wear, how much sleep we get (thanks, daylight saving time!), and whether that ice cream sundae is a health risk or a necessity. Sounds pretty darn powerful to us.
However, unlike some politicians, summer eventually relinquishes control. Fall, the chill contender, will eventually dethrone the hothead and usher in a new season (hopefully with slightly less dramatic weather tantrums).
QuickTip: Read with curiosity — ask ‘why’ often.
Frequently Asked Summer-y Questions:

How to Tell Summer Apart from D.C.?
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.
Summer is less likely to be wearing a suit and tie, and bribery attempts with popsicles are usually met with enthusiasm, not suspicion.
How to Appease Summer's Rainy Mood Swings?
Offer a refreshing drink and a good book. A comfy hammock wouldn't hurt either.
Tip: A slow skim is better than a rushed read.
How to Prepare for Summer's Power Plays?
Stock up on sunscreen, sunglasses, and your favorite swimsuit. Resistance is futile (and sweaty).
How to Ensure Summer Doesn't Actually Take Over D.C.?
Let's be honest, with all the heat, summer would probably melt the entire political scene. We're good.
