heh, if you think daylight savings time sucks, try on going through it on a boat in the middle of the Ocean. I swear to God, I think I'm Abe Vigoda's Illegitimate child!

Daylight savings is a new thing for me, having moved here from somewhere that doesn't have it. I'm on IRC and I see the timestamp go from 1:55am to 1:04am, a pretty big WTF moment.

OK, that's 6 wrong and 0 right thus far. Daylight Saving Time, not Savings.

And yes, it is the devil. Not having to participate in a shared delusion about what the time is for half the year is one of the positive things about living amongst cornfields in Indiana.

I once made a tiny RPG Maker game where the enemies were things like ghosts which represented the skipped over hour in April that never had a chance to be, and two-headed creatures to represent the repeated hour of October.

Me too, went to work and was stuck at the cold-ass trainstation for 1 hours waiting for the ride to work.



And I fucking watched TV all day yesterday and NEVER did they mention it. Fucking hell, and I'm already a couple hours behind my usual nightrest as it is :mad

Ha, my boss tried to make us stay an extra hour over the night, what a tool. He claimed we should do this to "make up for the hour we lost when the clocks went forward" Eh... we just worked the same amount of hours when this happened. He even went as far as to phone another store to see if we should stay an extra hour. He's a fucking retard.

This is the best kind! I woke up today, completely oblivious, and found out I had an extra hour. That was the best hour of sleep ever.

This is bullshit. Now the sun sets at 5 on the East Coast. Now I have to switch my running schedule to the morning.
