Daylight Saving Time Sounds Like a Miserable Event for the Rest of the Country

Daylight Saving Time is miserable — so we’ve heard.

Because DST is stupid and we don’t respect it, Arizona, like Hawaii, does not participate in this biannual clock-changing game.

The Navajo Nation still participates in DST, but for the rest of Arizona, we get to sit back and be observers to the misery that’s sweeping the nation.

To dive into the woe and despair around the country, check out some of the news coverage:

• Daylight Saving Time May Cost America $434 Million From Lost Sleep
• Change to daylight saving time takes biggest health toll today
• Grumpy this morning? Blame it on daylight saving time
• Daylight Savings Time Steals an Hour
• Daylight Saving Time: It’s unclear why we do it or what good it does

Sounds terrible.

It’s 10:30 a.m. at the time of this post, after not playing with our clocks, and it’s sunny and 60 degrees right now at the New Times office. It probably sucks to be just about anywhere else.
