RedDenver Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 18 hours ago, Making Chimichangas said: I prefer standard time 24/7. And I'll up the ante further: get rid of time zones also. When it is 7am in the eastern time zone, it is 7am in the central, mountain, and pacific time zones. I'm all in favor of using UTC as everyone's clocks, but if you've ever tried switching your computer to UTC, it's really hard to adjust your thinking because we're so dependent on time being a reflection of what part of the day/night it is.

"In 2016, Omaha voted to fire this corrupt political establishment and you elected an outsider as president who finally put America first. And if I don't sound like a typical Washington politician, it's because I'm not a politician," Trump stated. 2 1 Link to comment

knapplc Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Funny how this nonsense gets trotted out whenever some political party is getting hammered and needs to change the narrative. 2 Link to comment

OK Sorry, didn’t realize you guys were in the middle of an actual factual real life conversation...forgive my poorly timed attempt at humor on this intensely serious subject. I’m so embarrassed right now. How will I ever fix my reputation on this board?!? Link to comment
