Daylight savings time

Not a fan...

 

[Schopenhauer]

It just went into effect today. I hate it. It wreaks havoc with my frail sleeping patterns. And there are lots of downsides to it. This crap should be abolished.

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

The worst is having to figure out how to change the time on things like the microwave and your car dashboard all over again, because that's one of those things I seem to magically forget how to do every six months. I was going to say ain't no one got time for that, but I guess I have an extra hour.

I'm bitter that it ended. I wish we could just have one time zone.

I'm not a fan ether. Speaking of time - a few years back I got bored and drew up an idea for calendar reform.

A year would have 13 months each with 28 days even. That leaves us with 364 days.

New Years Day would not be included in the 13 months but instead be a day all to itself. The year would officially change at noon instead of midnight. On leap year, the extra day would be absorbed into New Years Day - making it a 48 hour period between the end of 13/28 and the beginning of 1/1.

My sleeping habits are completely messed up so it doesn't really make a difference for me. The actual clock-changing part is just a pain in the ass.

My sleep is erratic. Has been since I was about 15. One week I'm up during the day, the next im up all night. I prefer to stay up at nights. I can't focus as much during the day.

Guess I'll be the black sheep of this thread haha I don't mind.

The clock said 5pm and finding out it was really 4pm made me happy cause I got more time to get shit done : p Oh and it means it gets darker sooner! I'm so for that. I love it getting dark at 5pm.

I'm about to ready to climb into bed and it's only 4P here. Which is fine, in and of itself. I just hate the back and forth change and having to acclimate and re-acclimate.

New years at noon?

I always preferred day drinking. Get to sober up
And start again

Personally, I'm all for it. The extra hour of sleep is a godsend for me. The return of Daylight Saving Time in March is always soul-crushing. And I'm very much a child of gloom and darkness
