I hope everyone who wants to be on permanent DST experiences an eternity of the first day of spring forward, never rested again

    Then don’t be. It doesn’t change the fact that it’s completely arbitrary when you get up.

        You could just make the numbers be whatever you want if that’s what you need to feel good about the time.

          Again, I don’t get to set my own schedule, they’re determined by these numbers that while arbitrary, are rigid. Drop a kid off an hour late to school every day and have fun explaining that to a truancy officer, or tell your boss you’re leaving work an hour early to catch some sunlight and see how that goes.

            So drop them off at the same time, but just call it 8 instead of 7. Or is it more important to force everyone else to be on the same arbitrary number as you?

              Seems very important to you that the arbitrary number go the other way instead. Same argument applies.

              I don’t give a fuck which way it goes, just pick one and stick with it.

              It’s not about the arbitrary number, it’s about where the sun is when that number not dictated by me rolls around.

                So it’s more important to you that everyone else uses your favorite numbers. Got it.

                  It appears to me you don’t got it, but the stakes couldn’t be lower so it is what it is
