I hope everyone who wants to be on permanent DST experiences an eternity of the first day of spring forward, never rested again

Daylight Saving Time (not Savings). Most people get this wrong and I'm not sure why.

    Just changing it to noun form, you have a savings account not saving account. Coupons bring you savings on purchases.

    We pretty much just use the word saving for computer files, healthcare when saving a life, and fictional heroes. I guess most people don't think of it as an action to save daylight.
