It's honestly not even that bad. This makes evening car meets and late dates so much better.

Nope. Spring forward / fall back. Lose / gain.

As someone that likes to exercise and do other things outside I look forward to daylight savings time. As of this weekend, I can run/ride my bike after work and not in the dark.
This, honestly I cannot FATHOM the fuss this causes. Unbelievable.

Here in Cali today it feels like something is wrong too. I got to work and really had to turn on the lights. Then there is this water falling out of the sky, it's all grey, and life sucks to be me.

One hour time change is enough to really mess with my blood sugars with the changed eating times. Then soon I have heart attack/stroke and die. The End

Exactly. I don't mind if we do away with the time change, but if we ever do I would like to stay on the DST schedule for the extra daylight hours in the afternoon/evening.

Surprised the insurance industry has not put a stop to it. The 1 hour time switches mean the most average accidents for the one week following the switch. In the spring, it is on the Monday, in the fall, it is not till later in the week.
