This is probably the most content-free article I have ever read.
- baron816 8y agoIs it satire? Are they being facetious? I honestly can’t tell if they’re serious. They don’t make an argument against permanent DST.
- bootlooped 8y ago"This is clearly stupid, and something I’ve personally felt keenly since at least 1994, when I wrote to my then Congressman Pete Geren and asked why he supported Daylight Saving Time." That passage marks the point where they admit it is satire. It's about half way through.
- rconti 8y agoI have no idea. It seems like the author wants permanent Standard time?
- RankingMember 8y agoAgree, what is it even trying to say? They even reference consensus that permanent DST is preferable, while on preceding and following lines make what I hesitate to even call an "argument": > Never mind the fact that permanent DST means they never get that hour back or that in the winter children would be headed to the bus in darkness every morning.
- singingboyo 8y agoNot only is it content-free, but it's either a) wildly inaccurate or b) horribly incompetent satire, at least the bits about the hour being gone forever.
- meowface 8y agoWelcome to Gawker subsidiary websites.
- oxley 8y agoYeah. 2 mins of my life I'll never get back.
