Thanks for the reminder. I had forgotten to change the car radio clock.

I'm a big fan of the "fall back" part. The "spring forward" part, not so much.

I always wonder if people are being funny, just whining, or being serious when complaining about changing all the clocks or how difficult some of them are. I changed every clock in my house in less than 10 minutes...including the oven which is apparently hard? Idk, just curious if it's a joke or not.

How do you know if it was 10 minutes? While you were changing your clocks are you sure there wasn't some weird tear in the space/time continuum so that you only "think" it was 10 minutes?

There's a great documentary called "Time Trap" that explores the events of some cavers that disappeared into a space/time tear. The government is covering it up by marketing it as a "second rate sci-fi movie" but we know the truth.

Time Trap (2017) - IMDb

Time Trap: Directed by Mark Dennis, Ben Foster. With Reiley McClendon, Cassidy Gifford, Brianne Howey, Olivia Draguicevich. A professor enters a cave and goes missing. Some of his students come looking for him and get trapped in the cave as well.

Figured that anyone who liked DST would also be the type who liked abominations such as pineapple on pizza and old sniffing dudes.

Lol I've actually seen that movie. It was absurd but I was into it.

Not changing the clock in my gun room. Never have. Feels like a win.

I'm down to only 2 old clocks, (besides the vehicles,) that don't automatically change with the time change. Niether of them are used for mission critical stuff.

Watch, phone and computers are where important time keeping is done. All of those read the same perfectly accurate time, every time without error.

First world problems...my oven and microwave are right above/below each other. I can never get them exactly in sync so it always shows about a minute difference. Infuriating.

This is just gonna be a personal preference sort of thing. I’m usually a morning person, most often I’d rather have the daylight on the other side of my work hours. But when we get into days with the least daylight it doesn’t really matter. It’s dark on both sides of work hours.

I knew something was off about you

It never ceases to amaze me that people like changing clocks. There is no more daylight in the day, regardless of where your reference point is.

I'm also convinced morning people are more productive and healthier. (No, I'm not one.)

1) people don’t like changing clocks. They just do it because that’s the system and it’s a trade off.

2) everyone knows DST doesn’t add or remove hours from the calendar day other than on the day of the time change. Everyone understands that DST shifts the clock time, not how many hours of daylight are in a day.

3) I am pretty sure I’m the counterexample of “morning people are healthier”.

Yeah, it's absolutely a personal preference. This morning for instance, I was able to get outside earlier (by the clock) because it was lighter and it had warmed up more than yesterday. Yesterday I would've had to wait until 10 a.m. for the same conditions. Today it was 9.

You early risers **** me off!



You’re the reason I wait in line for McDonald’s breakfast, only to reach the box and hear “I’m sorry sir, we stopped serving breakfast 5 minutes ago”



Sleep in like the rest of us!

You mean other than the two references to Indiana in jmarriot's post?

Okay, well then you guys talk amongst yourselves. I mean, I suppose it was possible that he was talking about sunset on Jupiter or Neptune, but it seems like someone is pulling something out of Uranus.

Edit: Sorry there were 3 references to Indiana in jmarriot's post. Yeah, totally ambiguous.

I feel this needs examining. Is Printcraft in the house?
