Post subject:  People who bitch about Daylight Savings Time
Has nobody ever stayed up an hour later than they planned on? If you have, did you bitch about it for the next week or two afterwards?

It's an hour - not five ... and it's not like it's a surprise ... CHOOSE to go to bed an hour earlier ... have some NyQuil for fuck's sake, shut up, nobody fucking cares how tired you are because you slept one less hour on an early Sunday morning.

Christ, you'd think they'd had to deal with someone reclining their their seat back in front of them.

Über-Pussification of America.

Twice each year I realize that I have way too many clocks in our house.

Why do I even bother changing the clock on the microwave and range?

There's much more Daylight Saving Time than there is Standard Time. Maybe we should call Daylight Saving Time "Standard Time" and call Standard Time "Make Sure It Isn't Dark At 8 In The Morning In January Time."

It's not the change itself for me, it's the children + the change. However, that issue is in the fall though not the spring because my children who do not go to school yet "slept in" until 8:15.

During the fall, they are getting up at 6:00. That's when if absolutely sucks...and yes, we have tried keeping up later the night before, but when your kids have a routine, they stick with it regardless of how late they stay up the night before.

Daylight Saving (no goddamn s on the end of that for fucks sake Tiny) might be the most useless piece of shit idea we've ever had as a human race. It serves absolutely no purpose. You know how much it cost to reprogram all the shit that had to be reprogrammed when they extended it a few weeks? Billions. Had to be.

Living on the edge of a time zone as we do, I sure like it. Sunset at 7:30 in the summer would blow.

I like the extra hour. I think I may have a mild case of seasonal affective disorder, though.

The extra 's' is for "suck it".

Just leave the clocks how they are now...I'd much rather have the daylight shifted later in the "day" throughout the whole year.

That would be like saying, let's just make our height charts one inch shorter, so the short kids can be 5'7" instead of 5'6".

That's a terrible idea .... 6'3" people would have even less legroom in economy class.

Quincy died last year I think. Klugman battled throat cancer about 20 years ago and managed to survive a good time after it. He was great on Odd Couple along with Randle.

Not really...you'd get the supposed benefits it offers during the daylight savings period and you wouldn't have to change the clocks twice a year.

I concur. I don't care if it's dark in the morning.

I'd like to go to work in the morning & it be light out. I don't need for it to be daytime @ 8pm.

There is not much worse than driving to work in the dark during the winter, and then watch the sun setting as you get home.

I was waking up an hour earlier than I needed to everyday so I have no problem with daylight savings time.

I believe there is a study that was done that shows men have a lot of heart attacks the Monday after time springs forward.

I would spend months never seeing sunlight during the workweek.
