Time change still sucks

Reset all of my clocks this morning - all 18 of them.

The only non-internet connected clocks I have are the oven and microwave, and a analog clock in the dining room.

Still hate the time change...

My evil twin has arrived. I hate that bitch. I’ll be cranky until March when we change back. Not a fan of it getting dark so early.

My car changed on its own. Need to change oven, microwave and bedroom.

Six clocks, landline phones, appliances and twenty-six watches... I'll do the bike and X3 when I go for a ride/drive later.

Our cat got us up at his usual ~5:15 AM this morning. But it was really 4:15.

I prefer we stay at standard time permanently than savings time. Having a savings time permanently messes up your body clock, but having twice changes really mess it up

I prefer standard time too. It goes with fall/winter. My favorite seasons.

I'm just thankful we don't have to reset the clocks on our VCRs like in the 1900's. They were the worst.

I'm probably the only one who loves going back on regular time. I have had a hard time getting going in the dark for the past few weeks and it'll be nice with the sun starting to come up for a while at 7am again.

This is also the case with singapore and malaysia as they stay an hour ahead even though their region is not. Their reason is that they want to align with hong kong, but the thing is in singapore and malaysia, even with an hour ahead, the sun and dark is the same, sunrise and sunset around 7 pm instead of 6 pm. So same amount of time. Only messing up their schedule but not body clock.

This time change is welcomed - gaining an hour in the morning rocks for us night owls.

Positive - it will be light out when I drive to the office tomorrow.

Negative - it will be dark out when I leave the office tomorrow 😞

That's our problem, too; she's meowing now for her 4 PM feeding. Wrong!

The actual change has no effect on me on the day it's changed. I honestly didn't even realize it changed and today I actually had to get up at a certain time for an event. My phone automatically updated and woke me up at the correct time. Can't say I feel any difference. Normally I don't wake up at any set time so it would make even less of a difference.

Now the rest of the time when it becomes dark at 5pm can go fuck itself!!!!!

I don’t change the non auto updated clocks. My way of protesting. I understand why we did this 150 years ago, but all the farm equipment works day and night without regard to time zones now. Why we subject ourselves to this is mind boggling.
