I would've said mosquitoes, but only one left me with an itchy kneecap so far.  There are far more annoying things to complain about in Illinois than those blood-suckin' devils.

Don't get me wrong, summer in Illinois has a lot to offer - from waterparks, to beautiful hiking trails, to busy dog parks, the list goes on.  The weather isn't too hot or too cold, it's the perfect in-between.

I just need to talk about what goes on inside our cars when the temps start rising.

Two Most Annoying Things Illinois Summers Have To Offer

LEATHER SEATS IN CARS

Now, a bonus to getting burned by leather seats?

BUCKLES ON SEATBELTS

Don't you dare tell me you haven't touched the buckle of your seatbelt when it has been 80 degrees outside.  You reach to grab it and the buckle is like a frickin' stovetop. OUCH. NO THANKS.
