Guess I’m packing us all up to the arctic circle! Don’t worry, I’ll still post from there

I am sure you will still be wearing your mask.

It'll never be the same after that.

Personally, it doesn't matter a whole lot to me. I wake up with the sun, whenever that happens. Right now it's around 6:45-7:00am. In the summer, it will be closer to 5:30. Right now, I'm ready for dinner at 4:30 and feel like I should be in bed, but look at the clock and it's only 7:30pm. Ugh. In the summer, dinner could be as late as 9pm. I'm totally driven by the sunrise/sunset because I have no reason to follow a clock.

I do enjoy a longer pleasant summer evening, but in reality it's so damn hot here you're inside anyway.

I've always hated DST. The 24 hour clock was invented to be when the sun was overhead at noon, complete opposite at midnight. Modified a bit in modern civilization to account for time zones. If you want more daylight at the end of the day in the summer, start the day earlier. If sunrise is too late in the winter, start schools later. Why is it harder for people to flex their time than it is to actually change the clock? Leave the clock alone.

Then the people would line up to bitch about businesses changing their work/operating hours several times a year.

Some people have jobs

I agree. So do I. But a lot of jobs have flex time hours you can take advantage of. It depends on what you do. Same way telework depends on what you do. Not everybody can take advantage of it, but it's what life you choose for yourself.

Yeah, you are right about that. People bitch about everything so this would be no different.

Can't stay on daylight saving, Russia is on year round daylight saving. Can't be like his buddy Putin.
Other advance nations that don't switch, Greenland, Iceland, Belarus, and Turkey.

Standard will now be known as Freedom Time.

 

[somdwatch]

He’s not even sworn in yet and is telling us the sun will never set again after 8pm in Maryland, yeah, that makes me upset.

Here are those “liberal tears” you folks are craving so much, the fact that my grandkids aren’t going to have late summer evenings out playing, yeah, that ticks me off.

Someone has to act like a president.
Damn, your mood swings are too noticeable. Your first post was very sensible!
Didn't the prozac stay effective long enough?

Love Trump but year round standard time definitely isn't freedom time. Enjoy summer deck time after work, a little yard work, little league games, softball, etc. All end earlier due to darkness.

Same clowns that bellyache about having to change the stupid clock twice a year will be the ones complaining about it being so light-so early in the morning come summer, about 4:30 am in SM if on standard time.

Permanent DST might work but things will be a tad dark for the kiddies going to school and commuters every morning. Morning SM car flipping accidents definitely increase.

 

[DaSDGuy]

He has to find something to bitch about.

Bitches gotta bitch

 

[phreddyp]

...what else does he have, his girlfriend lost "bigly" to a guy who's record is 2 - 0 against girls! eek

And he is "straight" which is even worse for the left!

 

[phreddyp]

His idea of the artic circle is a popsicle stuck up his azz.

At least he can take some comfort in knowing that it will melt, not needing any medical intervention to extract.

 

[Merlin99]

Did you see how someone is treated who doesn’t worship every word from Trump? Pages of insults thrown my way in multiple threads, the harassment is endless.

Fine, let him end the time change, fire all the feds, bring back polio, lap it up folks!!

See post 11. Don't want insults, don't be a dick it's just not that hard. Really try it, be pleasant. People are going to treat you as you're treating them.

 

[Czar]

Compromise, piss everyone off by shifting the time a 1/2 hour.

Any happily married man does this already, MMTZ: Married Man Time Zone- the automatic subtraction of time back necessary to get woman folk out the door on time!

The absolute minimum recommended clock back allowance is 30 minutes as per the Association of Divorce Attorneys.

Given my druthers DST should be the standard throughout.

We tried that. Kids we getting killed walking to school in the dark.

The best is people that don't want to change the clock twice a year but have no problem getting in a jet and flying long distances east or west.

...interesting, when did that occur, I don't remember doing so?
