In the US, that is. It's already happened in the UK and now it gets dark at 4pm or so.
It causes a problem when posting on MR. I had to post this an hour earlier to make sure it got here on time.

It's getting to that depressing time of year where it's dark when you arrive at work and dark when you leave 
We've already gone to the future here in the UK, or is it the past? Anyroad. I like the dark winter evenings. And with the current temperatures its now time to whip out the Tom Baker scarf
Hah yeah. Walking home from clubbing at 6am is not something I plan on doing again until June.
Damn! I just got all the clocks, microwaves, dvd players, security light timers.... caught up from last change. I knew I should have just let them be.
I much prefer light, heat and warmth to the cold and dark. The first working day after the clocks go back, is, for me, in northern Europe, one of my very least favourite days of the entire year. It is a day when my heart, almost literally, sinks deep into my proverbial boots. Not only does it begin to get dark between four and five o'clock in the evening, but you know that there are eight long weeks to the winter solstice, and then a further eight weeks before the time of sunset/sunrise is even back to where it is on this profoundly depressing day.

I share your affliction/pain/situation, as do many, I suspect, in northern Europe during the winter months.

Yes, not seeing where you live in daylight from late Sunday afternoon until the following Saturday morning is indeed depressing.
Don't you wish you were in Arizona, where we don't play that silly game twice a year?
It's always nice, but I know that I will be thrown completely off for the first few years I live out of this state.
I would love to know who's brilliant idea it was to put Indiana on Daylight Savings. For work, we loose a hour of sunlight in the morning and puts us in conflict with school schedules. It might be a bit easier to take if we were on Central Time
When I worked in an office it absolutely sucked to get to work before sunrise and leave work after dark. I honestly started to think that the sun didn't come up for about three weeks!

Time to furl all the blinds.
OMG, that was amazing.
It's kind of surprising it didn't come from Yahoo Answers, where all the other education fails come from.
