    Every time I see a meme like this, I freak out a little bit because I wonder if it’s happening soon

    I’ve been an adult through 20+ changes of the clock, and I still will not know when it’s time to change them until 3 days before

        Found the guy without kids. Each switch is hell for 3-7 days, regardless of age. I like to know it’s coming way ahead of time so I can start adjusting their schedules to limit the damage.

        Yeah 3 days before? I only found out it was DST this weekend just gone because I happened to still be up.

        Me: man it’s almost 2am, I should go to bed
        DST: lol 3am

      Perhaps the only good thing about living in Arizona is that I don’t have to deal with daylight savings time. We have too much daylight here as it is

    Goddamnit , I thought the US Congress got rid of daylight savings time, but as always, it looks to have does in the house.

      To be fair: If you live in the south, it doesn’t make much sense, but if you live a bit further north it’s the difference between getting up when the sun is a a reasonable place, or getting up in the middle of the night (winter) or the middle of the day (summer). I want it to be light out when I’m awake, not when it’s sleeping time.

      Turns out it’s easier to adjust the clock than to say “work starts at 9 in the winter and at 8 in the summer”

        I don’t want it to be dark so early. Living in the north, even with the extra morning hour in winter I still have to wake up in darkness. What’s the use of it?

    Did daylight savings just start somewhere in the world or is this meme completely out of season?

  • Daylight saving is supposed to save a huge amount of energy, and I am all for that…, but could we maybe still not do it?.. Maybe just hibernate for the winter…, save loads more energy and, yes, solved it … and…sleep 😁

    Instead of springing forward, let’s just keep falling back every year. Eventually it’ll work out.
