ARRRRGGGHHH DAYLIGHT SAVINGS!!!!

I'll say this: With the way this year has already been going, DST likely won't feel so disruptive this time around.

the only thing good about DST is that it prevents the sky getting light at 4am in june

Who do I talk to about never going back to standard time after the DST change this year?

DST is superior in every way.
Standard is dumb and it sucks.

OTM

i swear it's like, hella early this year

when i was a kid it was the last sunday in april

so yeah it's hella early now

it's bullshit & i hate it

UK clocks dont change til end of the month

Johnny Fever OTM

The thing I'm proudest of Dubya for doing as president is lengthening the period of time the US is under DST each year.

It was the worst thing he ever did.

"Even worse than –"

"YES."

it's gonna snow tomorrow

a week or two ago it was 60

i don't even know when i am now

it's 2017

oh god

Worst weekend of the year

I love it so much.

If jobs were 7-3 rather than 9-5, would many care for DST?

granted: not many are 9-5 anymore.

what i want is darkness savings

mookie otm

all daylight savings means to me is that soon it will never not be 100 degrees for like, 6 months or some shit and i hate it

i can never understand? which time is "standard" and why

i can't figure out which one is normal. all i want to do is sleep all the time so i just treat each transition as i am entering a new period of hell.

Standard now somehow exists for less than 50% of the year in most places, so I don't even know what's standard about it anymore.

time classic

Time zones approximate 15° orange slices of the globe. Under normal, non-DLS time, if you're at 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60° (etc) longitude, at the center of each abstract time zone, the sun is most directly overhead at local noon.

DLS shifts an hour from morning to the evening, and was lobbied for by ice cream vendors and the like who benefited from more hours of post-labor sunlit leisure.

Beginning tomorrow, this sign in Indiana will be wrong again for the next eight months.

harbl mookie and I move to establish the independent nation of Sleepistan where daylight savings is BANNED

there has been some talk of colonizing the faroes

the summer light would be okay there

the law should be that civil twilight should never start before 5:30 pm (in Chicago at least) and if Trump could make that happen, then he has my vote in 2020

I hate 4:15 sunset (and on full darkness at 3:00 pm on cloudy days)

i've got some uncivil twilight for u

when do you like your daylight?

between 10 and 4 will do, thanks

back in the day i used to play pickup basketball after work, for which daylight is useful, but now let us plunge this planet in eternal darkness imo

I hear you. I've been averse to the concept of craving daylight. I used to think it was a sign of being a simp.

I'm the opposite: the pain of the loss of an hour is offset by the coming of 4 blessed months when it won't be below 0°C in the daytime, for the most part.

granted: not many are 9-5 anymore.

Just us normals who refuse to do anything else. (it's in the Bible)

begone, sleepies

What does the resumption of standard time mean to me? The bar opens an hour earlier.

hello darkness my old friend

Otm

Damn everything. Wake me up in 127 days.

i like getting up in the non-dark

^^^
And for us, it used to not be so much of a problem back when we fell back in mid-October. But for the last week, I've been waking up the kids while the streetlights outside are still turned on.

Between that, 80º weather and World Series that don't finish until November, I've been feeling pretty discombobulated already. Lord knows how I'll feel tomorrow.

But also keep in mind that tonight will be magical for one reason.

The Central Time Zone will fall back at 2 a.m. In other words, the clock will go from 0159 to 0100.

Since the Mountain Time Zone won't fall back until 2 a.m., it will also be 0100 in those areas. So the contiguous states will really only have three time zones for 59 minutes.

Which also means that the time in portions of Oregon (a state on the West Coast) and portions of Florida (a state on the East Coast) will be the same.

Seeing how DST is now seven months of the year, I think it should be called Standard Time. We could rename current Standard Time to something like Darkness Redistribution Time.
