Ahh it is the Wonderful/Horrible Time of Year when you Either GAIN an extra hour or Beddy Bye Time or LOSE An Hour of Visit to the Land of Nod?

What are YOUR Feelings on the Subject??? For those that live in places where it is a actual thing.... Do Arizona and Hawaii got the Right Idea?

Personally I love the Fall back bit, but that Spring Forward bit is pure bull shit.

Yeah I like the fall back part. Overall though it's a dumb idea that should be done away with, not worth the hassle.

There is no valid reason to keep doing it.

Robtard
Agree with BF and Surt, should be done away with. See no real point and I really dislike it being dark at 4:30pm in deep winter.

Flyattractor
I both Agree and Disagree with Robbie. I see no real point to it any more other then TRADITION and I LIKE it GETTING Dark as Early as Possible. That Big Bright Thing in the Sky Really PO's some times. Up there all Bright and Warming...makes me SICK !!!!!!!!

This poll with a 4% margin of error says....

74% of Americans want to end DST:

https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/poll-74-percent-of-americans-want-to-end-daylight-saving-time-but-keep-later-sunsets-300549400.html

In other words, keep the DST. Which would put east coast at -4 GMT, cetnral at -5GMT, mountain at -6GMT, and pacific at -7GMT.

I highly suspect that the older (55+) respondents are the majority of the people that want to keep moving around the daylight savings stuff.


So why do we keep it? Why, dudes? Pleeeeeease can we end it?

But that's standard time. Personally, Id like it if we stayed on DST permanently and not fall back to standard time. Which I assume you were suggesting as well?

Whichever gives me longer days so it's not dark by 4:30 pm in winter and keep it at that.

All I know is that I gain an hour of well deserved sleep.

You can all gargle my scrotum until you have a speech impediment.

How would you feel about time not being a fixed increment, but scaling with daylight? So for example, instead of setting clocks back an hour in autumn, the units of measurement simply get shorter as the pole tilts away from the sun on its orbit?

Time should be removed, it's dated.

I would be happy just to get the time back after I read that.

His family also received special training in "how to fail at suing over the situation our child created". It's hilarious. They wanted like 15 million. Lol.

Says every young person before they become old.

That is one Tired Old Song and Dance that Never changes.

Yes, if I live long enough I will eventually become old and I'll turn into a ****ing retard who desperately holds back the progress of society in order to make myself feel better. You're right, but that doesn't make my initial statement untrue.

Flyattractor
