    Daylight Saving Time

    Hello everybody! A lot of PXR members will move their clocks forward or back by 1 hour soon, so I thought I could post this thread. In addition, it will count for the User Challenges event.
    So, do you have DST in your timezone? If so, when does it start and when does it end? In my timezone, DST starts on the last Sunday of March and ends on the last Sunday of October.
    Also, what do you think of DST? I don't mind losing an hour during the night as I don't tend to sleep very well anyway, and I enjoy having sunlight until later in the evening, so I like when DST starts. However, I don't like when DST ends because it gets dark very early after that.

    How about you? :)

    Mine is apparently the 2nd Sunday of March to November.

    Huh. Never thought it was a linear time lapse. Or just never cared to notice. xD

    Bleh, this Sunday until November.

    They really need to do away with this archaic nonsense. :P

    Not a big fan of it myself. Only if we get an extra hour of sleep xD. Outside of that I hate it :3

    I don't have DST where I live. But even though it doesn't really affect me, I hate it. It's just pointless and I hate that everyone is forced to go along with this pointlessness.

    I love DST! I love having lighter evenings. The days seem so short once DST ends since it gets dark so early :(

    I certainly don't love it. Makes me wake up earlier and go to bed earlier. Neither of which are my thing. XD Getting an extra hour of daylight is cool, sure, but in the end I've just never liked having to conform to it.

    Regretably we have it here in 98% of usa. I wish they would do away with it as I do not think its even needed anymore and is more of annoyance then anything else. That is just me though.

    I like the fact the days feel longer and there's more sunlight at night, since I love to stay up late. xD Days feel so dreary when it ends cause eventually by 5pm it's pitch black outside. :/

    I hate it so much. I honestly don't know the dates, but I know today I'm losing an hour
