I heard one of the reasons for DST still being around is simply people still wanting another hour of light after they come back from work; allows them to do some more activities outside. Can't argue with that. Though, tbh I really don't like that practice, either.

Next person to run on a platform of eliminating DST will win every state in the country.

I actually like that, but why is it in the summer when it gets darker later anyway? It's crazy when it's time to take the clocks back an hour in October and it starts to get dark at 4 in the afternoon.

I'd rather DST stopped; if people want an extra hour of light after work we could switch to 8-4 work schedules instead.

DST is painfully disruptive, especially when the clocks go forward, I think. There aren't a huge number of countries that don't practice it, though...none I would care to move to, anyway.

I wonder if there would be a way to work that into Brexit, haha. Let SOME good come of this nightmare. Wishful thinking, but it's not like the rest of it makes any sense at all, so why not?

Down with DST. >:(

Gabri March 12th, 2017 3:41 PM

I don't really give a shit about dst

What about the state of Arizona?

clocks go forward 26th march for us meaning we get an extra hour of daylight yay

It messed up my sleep schedule, that's all that annoyed me about it

Sylphiel March 12th, 2017 7:54 PM

I'm mildly surprised that lost hour didn't wreck me that much this year. Usually I'm definitely feeling it.

Yeah really. Usually it throws me into oblivion, but I just woke up an hour later than I usually do and everyone went all fine and dandy.

So yeah though, anyone got some spring plans? Besides hopefully getting a job and working to save for stuff I want and need, I want to visit some friends on their college spring break.

Meganium March 12th, 2017 8:11 PM

guess who woke up at 11:30 am today...and still felt sleepy????

Sothis March 12th, 2017 8:43 PM

I woke up at 7:30pm >.>

Depends on which bit...I don't think I could handle higher temperatures. I like my cold and wet climate.


Dreading the clocks going forward this year; I've been going to bed later and waking up earlir, and I don't sleep very well anyway...getting up late bothers me.

this would be a better splash as it is quite a good description of the section

I miss the splash where we are burying the failed forums

I miss the failed forums.

EC March 14th, 2017 6:50 AM

It's easy to miss a failure. It's hard to miss a success.

blue March 14th, 2017 12:09 PM

failed forum frontier should be a thing

EC March 14th, 2017 1:48 PM

Speaking of the kiwis, Sunny D used to make a delicious kiwi-flavored drink. Long gone now though.
