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

    No, let's do away with all time zones, everyone's on GMT. Noon stops meaning 12:00 and just means when the sun is directly up in your time zone.

    If that means for you noon is 2AM, you start work at 11PM and are off at 7AM, usually going to bed at 1PM when it's well and dark out so be it. You don't have to change your clock when you travel, places just say "Local noon is 8PM".

    No, let's do away with all currency, everyone's on gold. $1 stops meaning 100 cents and just means whatever the hell it does in the area you’re in.

    Ask the railroads how not having time zones turned out.
