Rain is something that is loved and cherished, especially in the little towns of West Texas. Rain brings life to the crops that dominate the livelihoods of the people who live here; it brings life to students who bask in the soggy glory.

So many people lie in wait, ready for the next round of rain. Aside from farmers, I will never understand why. Rain makes everything gross, more difficult, and casts a sad, overcast shadow over everything that happens. Here are 7 reasons why rain is not a good thing, despite what Luke Bryan says:

1. It takes away your outfit choices.

Welcome to raincoats and rainboots galore. I guess it could be okay if you're into rubber.

2. Any outdoor activities are canceled.

Say goodbye to the intramural game you've been looking forward to all week.

3. A heavy downpour is a major mood killer.

You know what rainy weather is good for? Watching sad movies and crying. Yeah. Good times.

4. If you live somewhere like Lubbock, it floods.

You thought you were getting to class with dry socks?? Ha ha ha

5. Driving is a nightmare.

People seem to become blind, enraged, and terrified by driving in the rain, all at the same time.

6. People constantly talk about how nice the rain is.

Nope, nope, nope. Rain isn't great. Stop talking about it.

7. You literally sink into the ground.

You thought you could wear heels because it's been three days since it rained? WRONG.
