definitely hate DST, but mostly because of the annual death toll it entails, and the fact that it makes no fucking sense.

I hate the concept of Daylight Savings Time. It's such a "Baby formula: Now with even more lead!" solution to a problem that shouldn't exist in the first place.

The table is a little bit too far South, it's kind of difficult to walk around the table because the wall is too close. So we'll lift the roof off with a crane, suspend the table from a sophisticated set of guy wires, tear down the house around it, and then painstakingly reinstall the house 16 inches to the South so that there's room between the wall and the table.

Absolutely love winter. It's my favorite time of the year. I like being inside when it's cold and dark out. I like not sweating. Feels good man.

Absolutely detest switching back and forth between standard and DST. What a load of crap. Just pick one and be done with it.

I hate summer and daylight saving more.

If you're too cold, you can always do something. If you're too hot, you can only do so much then be miserable.

I love winter. Cold, dark, and snowy are my jam. To be fair this may be an ingrained coping mechanism from growing up in Alaska.

The only thing I hate about Winter is not Winter’s fault, and it’s basically what you said:

Work is somehow perfectly scheduled so that you’re inside, staring at a brick wall for 90-100% of the daylight hours for 5 out of every 7 days.

Winter is beautiful in ways that are completely unlike the other seasons, but unless you’re very fortunate you only get a few glimpses of it.

I feel like if you were designing a society to make people suffer, that’s how you would do it.

I was born and raised in a country with four distinct seasons. I loved all the seasons. However, I have always been a winter person. One of my bucket list items is to live in a place where the sun sets for months and there is only one long winter night.

I just want to pick one and stick with it. Like, holy fuck, the switching is awful.

It doesn't matter what season it is outside my basement, I still will refuse to go outside willingly.

I am of the opposite opinion, I LOVE winter for the exact reasons you're describing!

I have some inherited photosensitivity, so nighttime's my favourite time! I also handle the cold waaay better than I handle heat, and my organism just feels like it starts coming back to life once autumn shows up!

Summer pretty much always makes me wish I could sleep my way through it.

18?

Damn southerners.

Average winter enjoyer here, just chiming in to say “fuck summer!” We may be few in number, but we are large in spirit.

I like sun as much as the next person but I feel getting more daylight by changing the clocks is like going on a diet by changing the definition of a pound. Standard Time all year for me please.

The best day of the year is the first day of daylight saving time (end of March). There is no day I look forward to more every year, not my birthday, not Christmas, not Easter, not a day I go on vacation: the first day of daylight saving time beats all of these.

I like winter but the daylight savings nonsense sucks, I don't want it to get dark even earlier, it's all backwards.

Get up in the dark, go to work, get out in the dark... 💀😭💀

I wish we could hibernate, honestly

I despise getting ready in the dark and getting home in the dark. It's harder to fit in a lil fishing after work and I can't wear shorts and crop tops outside on the deck.

Winter stinks!

Yes. Not me, but yes.

I like the hours being dialed back. Whenever they're dialed forward, it feels like time moves even faster than when it did beforehand. I didn't like that feeling. Feels like everything is just being rushed and rushed.

Hate is a strong word, but yes I prefer the longer days of summer, and like doing summer things, and yes going to work in the dark sucks, but coming home from work in the dark is even worse, so dispiriting.

It's not even cold here, and summer too hot for most but summer is still my favorite, winter least favorite.

I go back and forth. I like getting cozy and warm, but when it's cold my skin feels uncomfortable, like it's crawling or shrinking on me, like I put it on wrong. And my hands feel gross and cold and I rue having to touch myself with them in the bathroom.

But when I get warm enough it's nice.

Winter has his charms as well.

I LOOOOOOOOOVE winter time. It's snowboard and snowmobile season baby!

I work 3rd shift, the darkness doesn't bother me. I hate it when it's daylight when I go to work and daylight when I come home.

When DST flips, I get an extra hour of work and my sleep schedule goes to shit for a week.

Winter? Nah. Love it for many of the reasons already being stated.

But the fake as fuck holiday season that comes with it? Done with it. I'm celebrating Festivus unironically this year. Done with the rest of that shit.

Honestly I don't really like winter because that's when my seasonal depression starts coming in full effect

No, I hate DST. Getting up an hour earlier sucks. I also prefer the darker season in general because I feel like I sleep better.

When I moved north, I realized there are only two seasons here: looking forward to summer, and dreading winter.

The best part about winter is staying inside, Christmas, Christmas baking, and New Year's/New Year's Eve. Otherwise it's miserable for me because I really dislike the cold.

It doesn't help that last winter my area was getting below zero (F°) weather, which I can never recall having to deal with much before. Calling that miserable is an understatement.

The only other good thing about winter I can think of is getting a god damn peppermint patty (hot chocolate w/ peppermint schnapps). Otherwise, absolutely no other reasons for me to like it.
