Every time I see a meme like this, I freak out a little bit because I wonder if it's happening soon

I've been an adult through 20+ changes of the clock, and I still will not know when it's time to change them until 3 days before

3 days before?
If anything I notice the wrong time on my oven.

Found the guy without kids. Each switch is hell for 3-7 days, regardless of age. I like to know it's coming way ahead of time so I can start adjusting their schedules to limit the damage.

I hate daylight savings even more since I have kids.

Yeah 3 days before? I only found out it was DST this weekend just gone because I happened to still be up.

Me: man it’s almost 2am, I should go to bed
DST: lol 3am

Perhaps the only good thing about living in Arizona is that I don't have to deal with daylight savings time. We have too much daylight here as it is

20+ time changes just accounts for the last 10+ years (assuming you live in an area with DST)
