Curious to see when most people are born....

May. officially spring but its usually nice & summery by then :)

Summer. ^-^. and my birthday is this month. :D

And i still need present ideas, on what to get my parents to get me.

I'm thinking books on History, Warfare and Politics..

Got any suggestions. ;p

October all the way! Autumn is the bomb!

In the Spring, May. I wish it were in the fall because that is my favorite time of the year.

OMG, I'm not the only 'bull-headed' person here! ;)

Actually, I phrased it as "which season" because I got to thinking -- for the folks in the Southern Hemisphere, the seasons are different. While we're shivering in January in the north, it's summer there.

My birthday was yesterday.

Summer, August so nobody is around as they're all on holiday :( (...including me) but at least I've nice weather

I was born at the end of March, so Autumn for me.

My birthday was yesterday.
happy birthday for yesterday then :)

btw, Taureans rule!!
i'm a taurus born in the chineese year of the ox. go me! :D

February the best month ever.

No wonder I'm so mixed up -- I'm a Leo born in the Year of the Dog.

Explains a lot.

September 12, year of the Horse. (yes, one day after 9/11)

Grr. I clicked 'summer' because I wasn't payign attention.
I meant to click 'winter'. At least, assuming February is in winter.

I clicked Spring for February

November.

Also, this is going to get fucked up with any southern hemisphere people...

"Some people are born in spring and their lives are said to be full of hope...full of hopes placed upon them by others, that if realised would yield great rewards for all. Others are born in summer, and are said to have great potential for joy in their daily lives, and their dealings with others.

But Tactical Grace was different. For he was born in a time between these realities, his fate forever hanging in the balance, always contested, yet never to be decided. The month is May...but we may call it, The Twilight Zone."

Mine was within the last 9 days of June, so Summer.

I clicked Spring for February
I clicked winter for February. I think we need to clearly define what dates a season covers for this to be accurate.

When is March 2nd? Is it Spring yet or still winter?

I was born at the end of March, so Autumn for me.

I have to move to Australia so my birthday will be in Autumn instead of Spring. :D

March 19

where i grew up (northern wisconsin) it's still winter... but it's starting to warm up a little bit.

down here in tennessee, it's definitely spring by the time my birthday rolls around.

My goodness... how do people not know when seasons begin??? Okay, I'll have to give the season-inept people some credit. The person who proposed to poll didn't specify which type of season he was referring to (astronomical, meteorological, or the rarely used traditional). However, I'll assume he was talking about the astronomical seasons, as displayed on most calendars:

Approx. Time Periods for Northern/Southern Hemispheres -
Winter/Summer: 21 December - 21 March
Spring/Autumn: 21 March - 21 June
Summer/Winter: 21 June - 23 September
Autumn/Spring: 23 September - 21 December

Meteorologically, for the northern hemisphere, winter is December-February, spring is March-May, summer is June-August, and autumn is September-November. "Traditionally", winter is November-January, spring is February-April, summer is May-July, and autumn is August-October.

By the way, my birthday is on Christmas, meaning it's in the winter no matter which season structure you use.

northern Wisconsin:
Winter: November - mid-April (they get snow frequently in April)
Spring: mid-April - May
Summer: June-August
Fall: September-October

It's colder where I grew up than it is in Scandinavia... it was -48F one day when I was 17, and we still had to go to school because there was no snowfall (doesn't snow much when it's that cold) and not enough ice on the roads to call it off.

Well mine is Valentines day(2/14), but when I lived below the Equator it was Summer than and Winter to the North. Therefore I kept with Winter.

July 17th

*checks calendar* hmm...

March 14th, so I'm a Spring person.

Well, I was born during a torrential blizzard, and almost caught pneumonia at the age of two weeks... what do you think? :p

Either; Canada or Russia. Or Greenland. Or somewhere. Probably on this planet, somewhere cold.

I say probably, as this is Czardas we're dealing with.

Where exactly are those planets? I've never heard of the planet Canada, the planet Russia, or the planet Greenland. Or are they different parts of your own home planet?

22nd May. Technically that's spring(?) but with the weather we've been having these days, it could be anytime. We had snow, rain, hail, thunder, sun, wind, and some serious fog.

Curious to see when most people are born....
You're a teacher, yes?

A bone-I'm a mid-summer birthday, where the only kids that attended my parties where the ones too lame to do anything else all summer, but that's not my beef.

My beef is with cupcakes (not beef cupcakes, those I don't have an issue with). All school year long the kids with school year birthdays bring in thier cupcakes and we all sing that damnable song and he maybe opens a gift given to him by the pretty red-headed girl that he fed a dirt clod the other day, the same red-headed girl that always asks you to hold her bag but never talks to you, and its all cool for that kid.

But then, at the end of the year there is two, maybe three of us, that have our birthdays during the summer, the break in school years. We get a little placebo party-eating the teacher's substandard cupcakes she bought from Safeway before coming to work and she makes everyone sing that song to 'those three' but no one really cares because they know it isn't really your birthday and that little red-headed girl doesn't even ask you to hold her bag.

Curse you, school year birthday kids with your red-headed Jezebel, I don't need your end of the year pity cupcake....dammit...







Yes, I'd probably whine if I didn't get a cupcake...

January 1. I'm in the minority, as all the other seasons have about twice as many as Winter.

Oh well, I like snow...and right now, this summer heat is killing me.

Autumn, and, sadly enough, I didn't realise that I was born in autumn until a couple years ago, when I realised that December 18th is 3 days away from winter, despite the fact that there's usually very thin blankets of snow in our area by that time and Christmas shopping is in full gear.

Well, I was born during a torrential blizzard, and almost caught pneumonia at the age of two weeks... what do you think? :p

a torrential blizzard?

hmmmm

high up in the mountains of montana or colorado maybe

or the upper peninsula of Michigan, where they get a ton of lake-effect (from Lake Superior) snow.

it's funny... the coldest days i can remember -- when it was -20F or lower -- included almost no snow.

there must be a snow window... maybe 0F to 30F... where snow falls the most.

My birthday is in 3 days . :D Its on July 12th.

LOL, well, at least you get birthdays. Somehow, everyone forgets mine. :-p

Mine's in winter.

Actually, I specified only Spring Summer Winter and Fall because I know the Southern Hemisphere people have it different -- my theory, which seems to be borne out so far, is most people are born in Spring/Summer where they are .

i was born at the end of May - another spring babe :)

November is Summer?

No wonder I'm so mixed up -- I'm a Leo born in the Year of the Dog.

Explains a lot.


As am I! Though I don't feel mixed up as you claim to.

I love having a summer b-day, play a game of golf, or go to the beach, have some ice cream...Right on.

December, Year of the Dragon & Sagittarius: That makes for a deadly combination.

As a kid it sucked to have birthday in the winter because it's cold but usually no snow yet, so you can't really do much outside. Now I don't mind anymore. It only means that I don't have to cram all the beer in the fridge but can just leave it sitting on the balcony :D:D:D

May 5th

There seems to be loads of people who are born in May, interesting!

Also, this is going to get fucked up with any southern hemisphere people...

Hey, I resent that. It's you northern hemisphere people who are going to bugger it up. You have your seasons arse-backwards. :p

Wabbit Season. :)

duck season

Wabbit season.

January, but seeing as I'm in the southern hemisphere, it's in Summer.
