It's that time of year again, when we manipulate time for some forgotten reason. But is this worse than the other time of year when we manipulate time for some forgotten reason?
"Springing forward" is the absolute worst. Don't talk to me about the sun setting an hour later. I don't care. An hour of my time has been stolen. And it's an hour of SLEEP. I NEED MY SLEEP, DAMMIT.
"But Adam 12," you whine, "falling back is worse! It starts getting dark at 4:15 p.m. in November and December." Who cares. Turn a goddamn light on. I'd say celebrate the extra hour you were just gifted, but it's not a gift if it was stolen from you just months before.
So know you know where I stand on springing forward vs. falling back. Let me know where you stand by casting your vote below.
