Spring ahead, you bastards

[Saint_Ann]

Everyone knows tampering with the timeline can lead to disaster.

And to think that Benjamin Franklin, an otherwise sane individual, came up with this notion. I think he was just trying to fuck with some people.

I do not look forward to time changes.

I do not look forward to time changes.

It screws over your biology, and not in a good way. I'm not driven by the clock anymore and it still screws with me.

If I could go back in time I'd tell ole Ben that it's a really bad idea. I suspect he'd look at me, smile, wink, and say, "I know, but I love fucking with people."

 

[Bidin~Time]

I already have a screwed up circadian rhythm, but I'll adjust. Ole Ben was such a smartass.

Can't be serious all the time.

a clockwork forward

I think I'll turn it ahead tonight so I can get an extra hours of sleep.

Just sleep till fall and don’t worry about the hassle of it all

Now there's an idea. But I'll miss a good deal of hunting season.

And who will make certain my garden grows into a cornucopia for my cupboard?

Hire an illegal, they work cheap.

I like springing ahead because I get an extra hour of daylight in the evening. I hate falling back because I lose it.

Throw away your clocks Col. The universe will unfold without pause.

I get to watch the sunset when I get home in the evening.

 

[bellisarius]

I get to watch the sunset when I get home in the evening.

Short hours in Dec. huh?

 

[thør]

Short hours in Dec. huh?

It averages out that I get more daylight in the course of a year than you do.

 

[Colonel Hogan]

I get to watch the sunset when I get home in the evening.

Better than watching it set during lunch, right?

 

[thør]

I never eat THAT late.

Hire an illegal, they work cheap.

And give up control of my garden? Surely, you jest!

 

[bellisarius]

And give up control of my garden? Surely, you jest!

Just tell'em that if they don't work their ass off you're going to call ICE. Cheaper than having a slave. You don't have to pay for room, board, or medical

 

[Bidin~Time]

But will they know where to find the sassafras ? I think not!

The only redeeming thing about the time change is knowing the morels, ramps, and sassafras are just waiting in the wings.

 

[BotanyBoy]

And give up control of my garden? Surely, you jest!

Don't have to give up control, just have them do the heavy labor.

 

[Antryg_Windrose]

I never eat THAT late.

Nobody has a good theory of time. It just happens. So we're justified to twist the shit out of it, smash it into little pieces, and reassemble it oddly. Just don't miss a meal.

Change is hard for old people.
