LOL, my internal clock didn't adjust. I woke up, looked at the clock and it reads 5:30. OK, put the coffee on and laid back down while it brewed, told the wife our youngest will be here in a few minutes to drop off the kids. So she gets up, goes to the kitchen, then comes back grumbling.............."it's only 4:30"...........................LOLOL........................whoops. 🤣 😂
I have been known to change all the clocks at random times just to mess with Hubby! Not ALL the clocks, but maybe just the shop clock, or den clock if he's napping!!😃🙃🤪

@Pearl I prefer a time change too. Interesting to see most that are commenting don’t want a time change.
And guys, that would be too mind game for me half the year having a clock with the wrong time. It is not that hard to change a clock. o_O
 
Thank you, Cabin Fever, for posting that video, it always makes me laugh till I have tears streaming from my eyes, lol. I especially love that one line: "They call it... ARIZONA!" BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Didn't Indiana ('The Hoosier') also reject the concept? They used to during my 'trucking daze'---maybe they still do. That was a real p!sser, trying to buy beer after a long day (and part of the night), only to find that the time change had already shot down your plans, lol. Kinda like those dry counties, lol... I recall one truck stop on the IN/OH line where ya couldn't buy beer, but if ya walked across the lot and access road into Ohio there was a liquor store right there, lol. Whoever owned that liquor store must have made a fortune... it was all about location, you understand. ;)

P.S. Speaking of dry counties, there were times in my 'trucking daze' when I just wanted a single beer after a long day, only to discover that I was in a dry county, lol. One time, I dropped my wagon in the truck stop and bobtailed something like 30 miles to buy beer, burning company fuel the whole time, lol... I was NOT going to be defeated by funky liquor laws, AYE? Then there was a time in some WallyWorld in the Southeast when I grabbed a pack of beer, only to be told in a friendly manner by some other shopper that it was Sunday, so I couldn't buy any beer, lol. I used to rail about those funky liquor laws in the past, now it's no big deal, though I wouldn't wanna live in any dry county. I know some folks do and they gotta drive some distance to stock up on alcohol, lol. No thanks... I like my counties WET, lol. :cool:

Changing A clock is no problem!
I changed 14 clocks/timers and haven't even touched the 2 vehicles, or 2 other clocks :mad:.
The hardest one to change, will be my "biological clock". ☹️

Holy crap! I woke up at 9:30. I rolled over and petted a cat, but it wasn't a cat, it was Roscoe the alcoholic raccoon! The cats were all up on my pillow with me, I looked up, and there was a possum on my feet and an armadillo in the trash can! I came out of this bed so fast it looked like Noah's ark exploded! Looks like I didn't shut the hatch good after my 3:00AM radiator drain! ()_()
 
It's coming next Sunday!
:woo hoo:My heart-watch will finally be correct again!
When the time changed before, I went into 'Setup', nowhere in there was 'set time'😡.
It's a watch, for Pete's sake, you would think that would be at the top of the list.gaah
(BTW, it does a good job of telling me how fast, or slow my heart is beating :thumbs:).

If you really want to mess with his head, change the clocks to a time before he hit the couch!
 
Did I ever mention how much I like summer?😁😁😁 Just one step closer to seasonal affectionate disorder!! It's sad!😃 Haha, S A D! I've had it since the middle of September! I don't like it getting dark so early! Whine whine whine!!
I suffered SAD for years! No fun anticipating the dark clouds and that heavy, lifeless, dreadful feeling that you can't shake.

My wife at the time talked to a pharmacist and they handled her a bottle of cheap, simple vitamin d3. It changed my life! So simple. Cheap. And effective. And quite common! Especially with darker complexion folks that live in the northern hemisphere.

I take 2000 iu every morning. Those particular gloomy days, I will take another 2k about noon. "dark clouds ain't bringing me down, it's gonna be a bright, bright, sun shiny day!"

I have a friend who is a retired orthopedic surgeon. She would agree with you. She is a staunch believer in a lot of Vitamin D.
 
Back in the day when they came out with DST it made $$$$$$$$ sense. Today that's simply no longer the case and it should have been done away with years ago.

But even worse than DST in my opinion is the criminal acts of fooling with the weather.

I sure miss the days before they started f-ing with the weather / clouds making all the summer days hazy and watered down looking. It also reeks havoc on solar power production. When they aren't f-ing with the clouds we are up to full charge by 11 am if not earlier but when they spray that crap in the air to block the sun we almost never get to a full charge.

WAY TO GO JOE AND THE BLOWHARDS now lets all go totally RE and wither on the vine!
