FUck FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKFUCK
dsafu;hg;wdaosufdahgfdas;f


WHAT THE FUCK

PEICE OF SHIT, IM UP A FUCKING HOUR EARLY. FUCKING CLOCK.



FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKk


Douche.



Now for a little story about a gay clock.

So i have a new gosu alarm clock which when you plug it in auto sets the time for whereever you are in the U.S. It has an EST CET and 2 other time zones to choose from with a switch. I'm in EST. So when day lights saving time happened the clock didn't auto adjust, and since it's an auto set clock you can't change it, theres a switch to change it from day lights saving or not, but i was too lazy to use it, so i switch my clocks timezine to CET so it changes by an hour, which was what i needed. gogo lazyness.

Yesterday i woke up so tired, and i hit sleep on my alarm clock, in 10 minutes when the sleep timer went off, i violently attacked that shit, and rightfully so. Turning every switch all the way to the right. (To turn the Alarm On/Off switch into Off mode.

Then i went back to sleep and life was good. Today when my alarm went off i was pumped i flew up as soon as the first beep went off, got dressed, watched some tV, did some laundry, the whole 9 yards. Then at 6:30 when my ex girlfriend is supposed to call me to make sure i didn't oversleep, so that i can pick her up. I'm a little surprised to not get the phone call at all. But i'm just like "whatever, she probabyl spaced." and continue getting dressed, at 6:55 i am finally dressed and still kind of wondering why she never called, At this point i also noticed my computer clock was behind an hour ROFL!, dumb clock must of gotten confused by system restore.....right?

I walk out to my car and my first thought is "WHY THE FUCK IS IT SO DARK OUT?" Then i start putting 2 and 2 together like only monkeyspanker can do. Walk into my car throw my books in open my phone, it now reads 6:00 on the dot. I run back inside and look at eveyr fucking other clock which reads 6:00 aswel. In my frantic semi conscious state of mind when i was assaulting the god damn alarm clock i accidentally pushed it back onto EST, pushing time forward another fucking hour, assuring myself that i would wkae up an hour fucking early. This explains why she didn't call atleast. Jesus fucking chirst, now i'm up an hour early.



Time to play some starcraft?

Also if you remove the "L" in "CLOCK" it spells COCK.



Just a little FYI.

Yeah, i fixed it a week ago, but my alarm clock and the hour back/forward are both similair switches, so when i flipped out when i was tired i accidentally turned my alamr clock off and set it back an forward an hour, meaning i wake up early and own myself. I actually woke my parents up apparently, because when i got out to my car and realized how dark it was i shouted "FUCK" in the middle of the road. Which apparently woke them up.

Daylight savings has made it so it's dark when I leave for work, and gettting dark when I'm leaving work. I basically never get to see the sun on weekdays anymore.

Fuck you daylight savings!

what the OP said is different. he had daylight saving turned back on.
when daylight saving is turned on, the clock fastforward and skip one hour, so the bright time shifts towards the afternoon to allow longer day time activities after work ---- but less bright time in the morning, which is the reason its dark for him when he got out, since our days are shorter in winter.

u never see the sun for a normal 9 to 5 work day when daylight saving gets turned on, or when it just got turned off recently?

technically, when we switch back one hour, it should be brighter.
6am now would've been 7am back without switching away from daylight saving (yes its turning off daylight saving in november) If you did not switch, your 6am would've been 1 hr ahead which is even darker.

I live fairly north, so we have longer summers and shorter winters. In the summer, the sun is out until 10:30 - 11:00 pm, and rises as early as 5:00 am. As I said, when I leave my house at 7:00 it's pitch black out. When I leave my office at 5:00 the sun has set and it's dusk out.

I don't have a window office so I can't even look outside :X

It blows.

The trick to DST is to pick one reliable device to make sure is set right, then test everything else according to that. Like if you choose to use your watch, when you wake up on Sunday immediately turn it back or bring it forward. Then set every other clock. If you are ever confused, compare the other devices to your watch. Any device that has ways to auto-adjust for dst is likely to be unreliable.

Well regardless, much better off waking up an hour early than an hour late (usually).
