After discovering the latest omen of the world’s coming demise, the Clog encourages Berkeley students to put down their books and enjoy their short-lived time on earth.

We know we’ve been neglecting our post–watching for signs of the imminent demise of the world–but we’re back on the job, and this week we’ve got a big one.

This morning, people around the world fell into chaos and panic when they realized that the time showing on their cell phones did not match the time on any of their other clocks. Others rushed to Church and other sundry appointments an hour late, causing even more pandemonium. Why?

Daylight Savings Time. That’s right, they (”they,” being that mysterious collective of people who do things like change time) sprang time forward supposedly in an effort to “save daylight.” But we know the real reason–they just want to screw with our heads. They know that once they make time inconstant the only thing left to go is space, ergo, the apocalypse is upon us. Pack your bags, kiddies, this year’s the one.

Wait, what’s that? This happens every year? Oh, it must have been a false alarm. (Get it? Nyuck, nyuck.) Well, whatever. If Facebook hasn’t already reminded you to change your clocks, you might want to do it before you miss all your classes tomorrow–and you’ve got midterms.
