I don't change my clocks for daylight saving time and live on permanent winter time all year, and just do the conversion in my head when dealing with the outside world.

For some reason this really confuses some people and I get all kinds of questions about it whenever the clocks change.

I think it's perfectly reasonable and think people setting their clocks to the wrong time for half the year is strange.

I think you inspired me. Maybe I will try this next year too. My job allows me to do so, so why not

Go full on anarchy. When the clocks go back, you put your clocks one hour forward.

That would make me kind of proud!

Are you from the US? Aren't they phasing this out?
