clocks set back...??

[Old_Me]

i got all of ours done before 9 PM last night...wife got a couple done as well.

only needed a step stool to get at the clock above the fridge

nearly 6 AM here now and it's of course, still dark out.

I forgot about it.

Yep did them last night

We need to quit this ridiculous clock changing. Pick a time. Stay on it. The illusion that we can "change" time is just that: an illusion.

Personally I think we should stay in standard time. Let it be light in the morning and dark in the evening.

Hi,

I agree about keeping the same time permanently. I like longer daylight hours in the afternoon. But I'm flexible.

My phone is my main clock. Thank goodness that gets set by magic. I'll get to the others later, coffee maker, truck, etc.

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

It's weird. Some people love it when the seasons change and it starts to snow, but they have trouble having to drive in it an hour earlier

Yeah not sure why it’s still in practice. Did feel good for my body to perceive an extra hour of sleep before going to work

One of only two days a year that every clock in my house reads the same time.

Was there a clock in that picture?

It occurred to me while I was writing this post that most of us here would probably have a coronary trying to take that woman on.

The whole daylight savings time thing is a perfect example to me of how little our government really cares about the opinions of its citizens.

The overwhelming majority of Americans, they do polls every year around clock change time, would rather do away with DST and go to straight Standard time all the time.

Our congress (House and Senate) KNOWS this and can't seem to get a simple bill passed

i agree...1000%

i say split the difference in half, and set the clocks 42 minutes ahead.........

Most folks want more light later in the day, especially those of use in the northern tier, for after work & other outdoor stuff.

With Day-light savings time it gets light at ~4:30am, and there's no reason for it to get light at ~3:30am when ~99.99% are sleeping.

Those in the lower tier only have to deal with smaller day light variations.

All it takes is for Soros to ask someone for permanent Standard Time

I was trying to set my sun dial back this morning, but it’s too cloudy to get the right positioning……..

So true.

When we go back to standard time (like today), it magically gets dark early. Honestly, I could argue both sides, but IMHO we just need to pick one and leave it alone
