I hate DST

More correctly stated: I hate switching to DST. I know there is a lot of debate about the time change, but it seems unnatural to change most of the country's schedule by a full hour, TWICE a year.

I wish we could just stick with DST year round. Rant over bc I'm pissed that I will be tired tomorrow morning.

 

Agreed. Pick a side and leave the time alone. It's not even split correct anymore since we switch back later now, so it's now extended.

 

Yup, switch to DST this time and leave the crap alone. No one uses that anymore and it's not needed. We need the longer day all year long.

 

Yeah...i know this sounds odd coming from a man bitching about time change...but I wish could do humanity a favor and travel back in time and kick someone's ass to prevent this retarded idea from ever affecting anyone. It would probably alter the course of everyones life but at least I wouldn't be bitching about it.

 

It was done way back when candles and oil were used as light sources. It was to help save on that expenses and also the farming industry.

 

With GPS now farmers can farm all damn night if they want.

 

George Hudson proposed the idea of daylight saving in 1895.[4] The German Empire and Austria-Hungary organized the first nationwide implementation, starting on April 30, 1916. Many countries have used it at various times since then, particularly since the energy crisis of the 1970s.

 

they should let us vote on it. should be our decision

 

Oh and March 19, 1918

 

Same, what I really need is less sleep.

 

George Hudson needed a bad asswhuppin. When I wake up in the morning, I will shout: "GEORRRGEEEEE."

 

What is this DST thing you guys speak of? Sounds lame.

 

I wonder if he was any relation to rock hudson?? Or did they name the Hudson river after him.
I gues i have more googling to do.... I hate when one question leads to 5 more

 

gtfo arizona.... you got no say in this.

 

I won't get a good nights sleep bc I'll lose an hour of it. I'm dreaming of a time when I can maintain a schedule. I wish I could hibernate like a fucking bear...but I'd instead hibernate from may - labor day.

 

ya arizonans can't even see a clock with all the dust storms they have.

 

It's the middle east of the US.

 

Since I retired in 2013 my sleep habits are all screwed up.

 

Been there too many times.

 

well at least they have snakes and can fry eggs on the hood of their tacomas
