        I mean, it is in use for 3/4 of the year. (That’s 0.75 for you metric twats who don’t understand fractions)

          Why would using metric cause someone not to understand fractions?

            I don’t know. You’ll have to ask them.

            All I know is they whine a lot when you mention 1/4 cup or 3/16 of an inch, and seem to think it’s really important to be able to measure a 2000km car trip to mm precision.

        Because “standard” and “normal” things are hardly ever the best.

      As someone who lived half my life in a place without dst, I can objectively say standard time rules, saving time drools.

        You have to be in the right place for no dst. I personally hate having sunrise be 430 (first light at 3) and sunset at 800, and shifting those times by an hour feels so much more natural to most people’s lives

        When it gets dark super early? Lame as fuck. Unless you’re talking about Arizona, fuck that.
