    Isn’t daylight savings time 8 months of the year? The four “winter” months are when we’re on standard time, so seems like it would be pretty easy to ignore DST during those 4 months. Or maybe I am misinterpreting?

      For some people who can’t be fucked to care about it (like me, and the person in the original post) it’s the changing of the clocks we call daylight saving(s) time, not a particular time zone designation or whatever.

      “Don’t forget, it’s daylight savings time this weekend”… “not again! which way do I move my clock?”

      We don’t care about the details and we don’t care what it’s acktually called, we just want to never do it again. Pick a time and stick with it.
