I just got invited to a meeting for a time zone that doesn't exist this time of year. In the US EST does not stand for Eastern time, it stands for Eastern Standard Time (~November-~March), EST is not an active time zone, it is EDT Eastern Daylight Time. Its a pointless thing, most people probably don't notice, but its wrong.

Fake internet points to anyone who knows why DB-9 bothers me.

Edit: corrected a missing n in an eastern

Sometimes I'm tempted to just stand in the middle of a roundabout with a sign that says "use your blinkers you fuckin morons" but then I remember I like being in one piece. Even worse are the people that signal going into a roundabout but not while they're exiting. Yes, you have literally no other option but to enter the roundabout, better signal to let people know I'm gonna enter it. There's 4 exits and people waiting to enter lol fuck you have fun guessing where I'm gonna exit.
