I still wish they'd just stick to a time and leave it be.

They need stick to this time. No reason it should be getting dark at 4:30 in the winter. ****ing miserable.

Thank Congress, the bill passed the Senate and then the House won't vote on it. This was three years ago.

What I can't stand about DST is having hear people bitch about it.

This change messed with me for whatever reason more than ever, pretty groggy and out of sorts for a couple days

But between all of the extra sunlight, and these ultra rare early March temps in the 60s-70s I'm good with it, lets get this early and warm spring underway asap

Probably wouldn't be me unless my natural wake up time shifts back to when I was ~15-25yo.

I normally get up around ~7-7:30 at the latest now... didn't go to bed until almost 1:30 Friday night and was still up before 8.

Next up: Why does the sky have to be blue? I hate blue. Why not red? Maybe a burnt umber?

I love this time change. I'm not a early riser and I love the long afternoons where I play golf till sunset. Love it!

What’s that like? My inner clock goes off no later than 530 am. In the very off chance I can actually sleep past that, my dogs alarm is about 545 am.

Makes it rough during our yearly Jamaica trip. Cuz it’s 430 am there. So I usually just get up, shower, and go sit on my balcony and start drinking, and burning the herbs. Then when my wife’s inner alarm goes off at 930 I’m already kinda lit. So usually around 2 pm I’m blasted and need a nap to make the second half of the day possible. And she’s like “how are you so much drunker than me?” Cuz I’ve been up drinking for 4-5 hours before you wake up.

Without Daylight Saving Time (DST), the Greater Kansas City, MO area would experience a shift in sunrise and sunset times. During the summer months, the sun would rise earlier and set earlier by about an hour compared to what it is with DST. This means that mornings would start earlier, and evenings would end earlier, with daylight potentially being available earlier and ending earlier.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Summer:
Sunrises would occur in the 4 a.m. hour instead of the 5 a.m. hour, and sunsets would be in the 7 p.m. hour instead of the 8 p.m. hour.

Winter:
The difference in sunrise and sunset times would be less pronounced compared to the summer.

Overall:
The total amount of daylight per day would remain the same, but the timing of sunrise and sunset would be shifted.

Merica!

I don't really care either way. Over the years I have just grown used to spring forward fall back. I really don't lose any sleep over it. I sleep when I am tired and wake at 5:30 am, routine!

and drink water and take a nap if you are tired. It is not really that big of a deal
