Permanent Daylight Saving Time

[riser4]

My favorite day of the year. Finally. The spring DST switch affects me badly. I never just get used to it. If only we could move the fall switch to the equinox.

My dog doesn’t get it. She’s really upset.

I probably said this earlier in the thread but my vote is for DST in the winter and double DST in the summer. Between being fairly north and in the eastern part of the time zone it gets light here at like 4:00 AM in the summer, who needs that?

I luv going to bed at 1730 hrs

As much light as possible after work right up until the middle of summer where its still light when I want to sleep. But mostly fuck the getting dark at 4pm or so in places like northern Vermont. I remember working at Smuggs growing up when the lifts closed at 3 or 3:30 for a couple of weeks.

This would probably drive me into severe, life threatening depression.

That’s the worst. Parents get fucked by this shit.

Why? Just get up. Fuck that, get up late go to work at 9am, East Coast bullshit. If you are the first one there, you are always early. The peace out whenever you want.

I would prefer to just stay on standard time year round.

[plugboots]

Just fucking pick a time already!
Ack.

Day light savings time and the switch to standard time are awesome. Do you really want ski resorts to not open until 10? Noon in AK. Sun coming out at 4am in the summer? The change of times makes so much sense, but we’ve become so soft as a society that the one week it takes to adjust is too much. Guarantee that of the change to permanent day light savings time was made it would last a year or 2 until people realized how bad it sucks.

hear, hear

Sitting here on Maui where they don’t change. When I fly back to Wyoming in a couple of days, the time change will be three hours instead of four, so I’m using the time change to my advantage.

I'm not sure if it was reading comprehension, being stoned...but when I voted for this, I assumed the time would be kept at the regular, normal, STANDARD time year round. Having DST year round is retarded

I really think the way it is now is the best for those of us in more northerly latitudes. I can imagine if you're living in Miami you wouldn't get it.

[zion zig zag]

I guess if I was forced to chose I’d go with standard time year around. But I mostly don’t care, it’s the same amount of daylight either way and I’m at a point in my life where I’m not necessarily ruled by the clock.

[east or bust]

Are most unaware that Arizona keeps standard time year round?

Liked it when I lived there, but, that’s a lot further south than most of the country.

I live in the northern latitudes of WA and I think DST is stupid. Too dark on winter mornings and too light in the evening for the four weeks before and after the summer solstice. Yes it would be lighter mid summer mornings but I have shades/drapes. I’d rather get up earlier for outdoor stuff when it’s cool anyway in the summer, doesn’t matter what the clock says.

When I lived in Tucson everyone was up at 5 at the latest in the summer. Any outdoor exercise was done before work. "Late" night news is at 10.
I prefer year round standard time, mainly because from a sleep standpoint it's healthier to wake when it's getting light, if possible. And most of us don't get enough or the right kind of sleep and we go around in chronic sleep deprivation and wonder why we're cranky all the time.

Live by the sun, not the clock.

No time change in the tropics makes sense as there’s almost zero difference in sunrise/sunset winter/summer. In northern/southern latitudes it makes perfect sense. When humans were smarter we understood this. But now the idiocracy is reality. Well what do we expect.
