like mending roads in summertime

Used to describe any untimely or unnecessary expenditure of effort or money.

Adapted from Shakespeare (Merchant of Venice), and in that day roads were in far better shape during the summer months, so mending roads in summertime was considered redundant.

Guy 2: "Study for a class that easy? That's like mending roads in summertime!"

Summertime Lovin, Lovin in the Summer(time)

A song by the band "Solid Bold," used in a regular show. The most annoying, brain-sucking song you will ever hear, according to a blue jay and a raccoon by the names of Mordecai and Rigby. Replaced in annoyingness with the song "Oh snap, oh snap, come to our macaroni party then we'll take a nap." This is my jam.
Eww, it's the band that sang that stupid summertime song: Summertime Lovin, Lovin in the Summer(time).

Summertime

The season that was once free of any sorts championships, as it is meant to be.
There was a good reason there were no sports championships in the summertime. The Olympics don't come every year.
