"Spring Forward" Sucks

sachmo71 · 04-06-2003, 10:15 AM

I just had to get that off of my chest. Frickin' daylight savings time.

KWhit · 04-06-2003, 10:37 AM

Disagree completely. It rocks.

ShovelMonkey · 04-06-2003, 10:39 AM

I second themotion that it sucks. Just means I have to go into work an hour earlier, oh the joy.

MylesKnight · 04-06-2003, 10:55 AM

I agree with KWhit.. Nothing worse than the middle of the damn winter when it starts getting dark at like 4-something in the afternoon. Talk about depressing..

Bring Daylight Savings Time On!!

But then why have daylight savings for the spring & summer? Why not in the winter so that it gets dark at least after 5. I hate the summers that I occasionally spend in Seattle when the sun goes down after 10:00 PM.

More daylight rules !!!!

sabotai · 04-06-2003, 11:14 AM

I hate the daylight....

Nyarlahotep · 04-06-2003, 11:32 AM

I hate daylight too, but I don't have to worry about daylight saving time either.

bbor · 04-06-2003, 11:56 AM

I NEED that extra hour of sleep dammit

Blackadar · 04-06-2003, 12:33 PM

I like Spring forward. It's very handy. I can play golf after work in the summer.

GrantDawg · 04-06-2003, 01:16 PM

I hate 9:50 sundowns.

tucker342 · 04-06-2003, 01:49 PM

I like Spring Forward also

Easy Mac · 04-06-2003, 01:55 PM

Evidentally the birds outside adapted quickly... fucking fowl. Mate in the evening like normal animals.

KWhit · 04-06-2003, 02:01 PM

Golf after work. Yeah, baby!

Bingo!

MylesKnight · 04-06-2003, 02:46 PM

Blackadar, you certainly read my mind. FORE!!

ACStrider · 04-06-2003, 06:45 PM

Instead of losing an hour, I propose gaining 23 hours. Much better!

Bing - frickin' - o!!!! My only decision the last few years has been ball golf or disc golf?

JeeberD · 04-06-2003, 11:14 PM

I agree that losing an hour of sleep sucks ass...

Man, such a tough question...ball golf is more fun, in my opinion, but much more expensive as well...being a college student, my disc golf skills have definitely improved dramatically

Honolulu_Blue · 04-07-2003, 07:09 AM

I love it. It means... play-off hockey! 7:00 pm EST starts while it's still sunny out. Ahhh!

sachmo71 · 04-07-2003, 09:18 AM

Well, I guess you pro-DST guys are right. The price that I pay for your extra round of golf is DEFINATELY worth it. My daughter won't wake up on time because her body thinks it's 5am instead of 6, nor will she go to sleep on time for the same reason, the extra oppuritunity for my wife to send me out to do yard work as soon as I get home after work, having to change all of the clocks in my house and at work...yeah, you guys to enjoy your friggin' sunshine. Jerks.

I know what you are talking about Sach, but what you don't realize is, that extra hour of daylight comes in handy, because your daughter can play outside a hour later and get tired alot faster, allowing you to relax and watch hockey instead of cartoons or playing Polly Pockets, I mean watching my wife play Polly Pockets!

sachmo71 · 04-07-2003, 09:27 AM

I never thought about it that way, Cards. Hmmm, maybe it isn't so bad. And there is hockey. Maybe I should try golf again?

If it makes you feel any better, we're getting snow right now. A few inches of this will definitely delay my golfing plans.
