Great, we could sleep one hour more, but suddenly, it’s getting dark at 18.

Great we have one hour more of sun on the morning, but instead of being pitch black when starting to commute to work it’s just still dark and by the end of November it’ll be pitch black anyway.

    definitely hate DST, but mostly because of the annual death toll it entails, and the fact that it makes no fucking sense.

    I love winter. Cold, dark, and snowy are my jam. To be fair this may be an ingrained coping mechanism from growing up in Alaska.

    I was born and raised in a country with four distinct seasons. I loved all the seasons. However, I have always been a winter person. One of my bucket list items is to live in a place where the sun sets for months and there is only one long winter night.

    I detest the cold. I’m skinny enough that I have to wear long underwear basically constantly as it gets colder. The one potential upside to the environmental hellscape we’re creating for ourselves is that I may be able to stop doing that. Otherwise, winter is just annoying as hell, it’s such a stupid ass season.

    Hate is a strong word, but yes I prefer the longer days of summer, and like doing summer things, and yes going to work in the dark sucks, but coming home from work in the dark is even worse, so dispiriting.

    It’s not even cold here, and summer too hot for most but summer is still my favorite, winter least favorite.

      It’s like: would you prefer going to work/school in the dark and coming gome during the day or would you like to spend all the daylight at work/school

    I like sun as much as the next person but I feel getting more daylight by changing the clocks is like going on a diet by changing the definition of a pound. Standard Time all year for me please.

    Absolutely love winter. It’s my favorite time of the year. I like being inside when it’s cold and dark out. I like not sweating. Feels good man.

    Absolutely detest switching back and forth between standard and DST. What a load of crap. Just pick one and be done with it.

    I go back and forth. I like getting cozy and warm, but when it’s cold my skin feels uncomfortable, like it’s crawling or shrinking on me, like I put it on wrong. And my hands feel gross and cold and I rue having to touch myself with them in the bathroom.

    But when I get warm enough it’s nice.

    I hate the concept of Daylight Savings Time. It’s such a “Baby formula: Now with even more lead!” solution to a problem that shouldn’t exist in the first place.

    The table is a little bit too far South, it’s kind of difficult to walk around the table because the wall is too close. So we’ll lift the roof off with a crane, suspend the table from a sophisticated set of guy wires, tear down the house around it, and then painstakingly reinstall the house 16 inches to the South so that there’s room between the wall and the table.

    I’m split on this. Most people here that love the time shift also love winter. I don’t love winter but I do love it getting dark sooner.

    The best day of the year is the first day of daylight saving time (end of March). There is no day I look forward to more every year, not my birthday, not Christmas, not Easter, not a day I go on vacation: the first day of daylight saving time beats all of these.

      I also love-it so much, Suddently, there is day light late, you see people outside, no matter whether it’s about kids playing outside after school, or adult having an evening walk, but suddently looks like life is back
