F**king daylight savings
 

I hate it, its so stupid, here it is 5:48pm and it looks like its 9:30 pm outside. Days are so short now. Anyone else hate daylight savings? mad:

Move to Saskatchewan.

i do, it pisses me off cuz i have to change my mind set and schedule

no

Technically you mean you LOVE 'daylight savings' since its 'daylight savings' which EXTENDS the daylight during the summer. We just switched back to 'standard time' which blows.

bah you technical cunt rag

I completely agree, I hate when it gets dark so early. Living in AL is even worse than in other states, because there have been several attempts to move us into EST because the difference is very marginal. So essentially we've got EST sunsets but yet we're in CST. Because of that, it's already pitch dark by 5:15. In the dead of winter, it's pitch black by 4:45. No shit, 4:45. I'm not talking about it being dusk, I'm talking about like 10:00 just like you described. It's fucking gay. I might as well be living in fucking Alaska it gets dark here so early.

i blame the Earth for being tilted on its axis 23.5 degrees

I don't mind it. Probably because i'm at a way higher latitude than the rest of you.

I like it because i'm up at 5:45am and now the sun will rise a little bit earlier. Before, it was 8:30am before it wasn't dark out anymore.

Yeah, i dislike it also. Heard a shit load of reasons as to why they do it but......you can thank Benjamin Franklin.

seriously who the fuck cares?... just set all you clocks/watches back before bed, and you wont even notice in the morning...

i personally enjoyed it at 2am (last call) when the clock went back to 1am, therefore extending my drinking time by an hour...

It's worse in the spring time. Hard to get up sleeping:

you can all eat a dick fgts, try having a baby with DST.

guess what mom and dad I dont give a shit if you guys went to at 1 am after bowling, who cares if the clock says 6 am Feels like 7 am to me now wake up MOFO!

i notice it for a week after, you can obviously see that it gets darker earlier.

i seem to notice less and less each year...

probably because you prefer night to day beer:

senile biggrin:

i didnt notice anything, its not hard for me to wake up at all. only thing i hate is now that its 5pm, fags on the road forget how to drive because its darker.

I don't care about the actual time change. It doesn't bother me a bit. I just don't like it being pitch dark before dinnertime stupid:

BOTH!...

wait, where am i?...

now now drink your prune juice and get back in bed beer:

I dunno, I don't care. I just like the fact that when I wake up the sun is actually up.

chronic is right...after 5...its pitch dark in AL. Here in Ga though, its more like 5:30-6 before its dark

So... wouldn't it be worse to be moved to EST? It would be darker an hour earlier, unless I'm totally missing the point...

i was an hour early for work... and I started at 7am cry:

What I'm saying is AL is so close to being in the EST, but we're not. The time that the sun sets here is practically the same as what it does in NY, FL, etc... Since we're still in CST the sun sets unusually soon, whereas if the time was in fact switched to EST it would set @ about 6:00, which is a more normal time for the sun to go down on standard time.

It'd be like living on the time zone line, standing on the EST side and saying, "it's 6:00 and it's dark," then go back over the line to CST and say, "It's 5:00 and it's dark."

There are actually a few cities in AL that have switched to EST, even though the actual time zone line never breaches the AL/GA state line.

Oh ok. Yeah, MI is the most westward state in EST. Kind of sucks...

Living in California it never seemed as if daylight savings made difference on the sun save for the time. Jesus, in Colorado it's like major impact.

how bout the fact that its 7 am and its bright as fucking shit outside, suck on that for awhile bitches. I fucking hate THAT not the fact it gets darker earlier

you guys sound like whiney little bitches, get over it. Its only 1 hour

Seriously, you'd think this was the first year this has ever happened. rolleyes:

people can choose to have kids...your own fucking fault...more daylight > less daylight.

Im not sure what you mean but those of us with kids welcome dlight savings time. I want my daughters bus stop sunny not dark

more daylight at night i meant...

...school should start later then.

I should not be looking outside now at 4:40 and notice that it will be really dark in a half hour.

Only an hour...true but.....i don't like when it gets dark earlier. The days just seem to fly by and it just makes winter appear colder when it's dark.

Meh. I like it when it gets dark earlier.

Been there done that. Babies don't care what time it is anyway. Put your boots on and stop crying. Your in it for the long haul. rolleyes:

I dont mind night time.
