I don't like DST. They should do away with it and leave things the way the good Lord made it. :monkey:

I don't quite understand it no more. They are wanting to take it away. What was its purpose in the first place. Things are put for a reason.

I like when the days are shorter and it gets dark a 4 30 in the afternoon. I wish it was that way year around.

I love the longer days.  I just don't like losing an extra hour of sleep.

I actually think that DST is completely opposite of what it should be... DST is to allow more daylight later in the day when more people are awake and active. However, they extend the daylight hours during the summer when the day already have more daylight hours; I'd rather that DST was during the Winter to save more daylight hours then so that I can enjoy a few hours of daylight after getting off of work. Right now, I drive home in the dark during the winter and can't get to sleep until the sun sets after 9pm in the summer; reverse the time changes and the sun sets at about 6pm and 7pm during the winter and summer months, respectively, making the daylight hours about the same during the entire year.

I don't especially like it. I run in the mornings and after having it be nice and light while I'm out I have to go back to it being dark... it is what it is and I don't get that worked up over it.

I think Daylight Savings is stupid and they need to just stick with one time. A couple of states are trying to get rid of it and I hope eventually all states vote it out.

It never bothered me, I don't mind setting my clock forward & backward.

I don't like DST either. I like this time we're setting the clocks but not during the fall. It's pretty ridiculous. John Oliver did a segment on DST on Last Week Tonight that I thought was interesting. It's probably up on youtube if anyone wants to watch it.

I just watched the John Oliver segment, so funny.
