Me and my friends were just sitting around talking about how long we have until Daylight Saving Time starts. It's usually the first Saturday in April, but looking through the 2007 calendar we saw that it's been moved up like 2 weeks...to March 11th. How flippin cool is that! woooo huuuuu!! Gimmee back my daylight! |

I fucking need DAYLIGHT TO COME SOON!!!!!! xD I hate traveling back home from College in the dark.... =[ |

I hate daylight savings. Correction: I hate switching every damn clock and watch I own. |
| ***Marial-B*** 31.01.2007 15:53 |
I'm just trying to get used to thi new kind of expierence, since in my ex-tropical country we didn't have these kind of situations xD. |
| Mr.Jingles 31.01.2007 16:22 |
Daylight savings has to be the most retarded idea anyone has come up. Take for a fact that there are more people awake at 6pm than at 6am. |
| deleted user 31.01.2007 17:10 |
I'm ready for that. When you have to drive to work for 45 mins at 6am, it's hard to stay awake. I need my sun. |
| iGSM 01.02.2007 02:27 |
Get up 45 minutes...later...and say you died then came back to life. Works like a charm for me! Except the fact I walk to work and it takes me...6 minutes to get there. I'll walk slower. |

Daylight Saving is fucking pointless where I live. You know how much sunlight we get in Perth!??! I can imagine it *maybe* being useful in Winter. Maybe. I tell you what, Mr. Businessman, YOU WAKE UP AN HOUR EARLY, and leave us the hell alone. This city voted against Daylight Saving in 2 or 3 referenda and the government shoved it down our throat anyway. Cunts!!! |

I think it should daylight savings time all year round. I don't see any point in changing the clocks in the fall. Just let us keep the daylight for the daytime! Screw standard time!!! |

Zeb is right though. It's a case of keeping trying until the result the Government wants sticks. Honestly I've not noticed that much difference. Yes, I walk home from work because it's light but I'd do that regardless of it was 1000 degrees/snowing leopards/Z-Day. I'm not wasting some amount of petrol to travel 700 metres. Fuck that shit. Put it this way Z - we've only got 2 more years of it. I think we should have it in winter. I'd like that. I feel for the farmers up north where they're out in billion degree temperatures at 10:00. Plenty of bricklayers I know hate the idea. Mind you they've remedied that by getting up at 4 so they still work the same amount of hours dawn/daylight. Horrible job that. All of 'em are Poms down this way. I will get up at 7:00 o'clock whatever the light outside dictates. |

Meh.... it's the principle of the thing, you know!!? It shows what kind of government we're gradually cultivating over here. It doesn't matter if we're talking about conscription or the colour of door fittings in public toilets. They *ignored* 3 very decisive votes against Daylight Savings and stuck us with a 3 year trial; hoping we'd get numbed into dull, conformist submission. Read it again. Our elected representatives deliberately ignored us. Am I the only one that gets annoyed with such temerity? Again, the clock changing an hour is a small thing, but I take the issue as a pretty telling reminder of the kind of people politicians are. We ought to pay them as much as we pay train drivers ; none of this 'golden handshake' crap when they retire. |

To be completely honest, having my sleep schedule dictated to me by some arbitrary concept ranks a thousand times higher than a war whose results will never effect me. Oh, and go capitalism. |
| Eviltwin 01.02.2007 13:53 |
I just want it to stay light until 9:00 p.m. I never realized an hour a year was so controversial. |

funny story: grand cayman had a choice whether they should have daylight savings or not.... they voted no because they were afraid of losing an hour of their life. true fact. i hate daylight savings because it throws everything off, and people unessesarily late or early to work or school because they forgot to change their clock. and if you look outside, changing the clock doesnt do much. turns out half the time its not a few weeks untill the sun 'properly matches the clock'. yes the light during the day changes year around, but an hour just doesnt match half the time.... i dont think im making sense. |

Is it any different in the city? I know down this-a way it's...new to see the Sun up casting a doubtful, cancer causing eye over the sea. You're dead right though. I don't like it. I will vote against it just like I'd've voted against the Republic question were I old enough. Fuckin' John D'Orazio. Daylight Savings will go. It will vanish and shrink. I don't know what will go first, rock 'n' roll or Day Light Savings. I also like the colour of the door fittings to be mustard. Kind of a reminder why I'm going there. Honest though - worst idea...ever? *waves a little capitalism flag* |
