I need crowdsourcing help. I'm looking for non-summer activities (however ridic) that shouldn't be done between memorial day and labor day.

Posted by amanda (aka amanda) Aug 27 '13, 18:03

like, wearing white shoes. baking.

what else are activities we can (again, however ridic-ly) ban during summer or allow specifically during winter?

like, can I say that eating italian ice is a summer-only activity? obvs wearing corduroy is winter only. what else?

(thanks guys. I heart you.)
