Coming in at #2 — slavery
Yes, but “gratest shame”? Not even top 10.
The switch to and from DST for me every year is a non-event.
Flyer ping
I’ve written and called my state representatives on this farce.
It always, always causes mayhem at work. We have to shut off machines during the change, and it still causes issues. Clocks don’t turn correctly, start turning repeatedly, and for some reason, some turned the following Sunday/Monday morning.
The main thing I hate is everything.
LOL it barely makes the rank of minor irritation.
I believe it may have been Nipsy Russell who said long ago that the idea for daylight savings time came from a man who cut one end off his blanket and sewed it onto the other end to make it longer.
I’ve seen a lot of MSM articles slamming DST.
Why are liberals so against it?
I never really thought it a big deal, one way or another.
But seeing near vitriolic screeds against it in the usual leftist publications makes me think maybe it is a good thing.
If the liberals are putting up such a concerted front against it, there’s probably something in it, that I am unaware of, that is good.
Or abortion
Yesterday was the best morning of the year.
The Sunday in March is the worst.
I really like to sleep.
” DST got extended “
First recorded use of “DST” was with the Romans.
Greatest fraud? This guy never heard of the demonRAT party? The Federal Deposit Banking System? The IRS? The EPA?
I could go on for about another day or two, but why bother? You all get it.
No, this is something fairly equally hated.
In fact, far leftists are the ones that seem to adore it, which makes it suspicious.
I am NOT for something that completely disrupts operations for no discernible reason, and DST is definitely one of them.
That's "perpetrated." Which reminds me: The greatest, costliest, most destructive hoax ever perpetrated on the American People is school. Followed by government school.
Greatest shame is a joke. Electing a red diaper baby with a C- grade average to the presidency is the greatest shame so far.
I’m still enjoying getting that extra hour of time back. LOL!
Maximum Daylight works for me.
When the wife says "Where you been? ..at the ice-house?"
I say, "Honey,It's not late, It ain't even dark yet!"
Now "I'm not late, ...Blame the time change".
