I hate it. I don't mind losing an hour tonight, but I hate it being light outside at 10 pm. If I wanted that, I'd move to Alaska.

Love it. Got chit to do yo!

They should just get rid of it. It's a relic from a bygone era and rather useless. Sort of like some of the posters around here.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

I like it light at 10 pm.

Spring forward and stay there.

I like it light later, also. Gotta walk the dog after dinner, and picking up a soft serve dog stool out of the neighbor's grass is sooo much easier in daylight. It's good when the only thing "pitch black" is the poop bag on your hand, and you can actually see which hand its on. Things go bump in the night. During daytime one can safely stroll the neighborhood with only two essentials...a leash and a plastic bag. When dog walking in the dark, you need everything on the ten essentials list, plus layered clothing, a reflective vest, headlamp, mace, a magnum sized Swiss Army knife and a bone saw. Year 'round daylight savings time sounds good to me.

same amount of daylight in a 24 hour period, thinking the clock gives you more daylight is extremely stupid.

Maybe instead of getting rid of Standard Time, we should just get rid of the clock...

When the clocks says 10 pm and it's still light, that is different than when the clocks says 9 and it gets dark because, get this, most people leave work when the clock says 5, not when the sun is a certain position in the sky.

Show up at work an hour late tomorrow, and just tell them there's still the same amount of daylight in the day and see what happens.

For a while, it makes it a lot easy for those who do not work in an office. It is much easier to show up a 8 am to 9 am and start hammering, mowing a lawn, or what ever, and work to 7 pm in the evening, then to show up at 6 or 7 am and start making noise or disturbing people.
