With Daylight Savings once again coming up, it never fails for it to spark discussions about its purpose in modern times. People hate it widely while few seem to be okay with it and depending where you live, others don’t even know what the deal is.

Politicians have actually put it on the docket to be voted on, but seems to have lost traction. Quite frankly, this is an issue that should be done and over with. Just end it, but please end it when we have the clocks dialed back than forward, because I wouldn’t like time going faster than it already is.

      Grey’s Anatomy

      As someone who still watches let me assure you we all want it to come to an end. There was even a moment a few seasons ago where Meredith left and it seemed like we were set up for a perfect send off.

      But it just kept going. Meredith is weirdly sometimes back despite living in Boston. But next season is probably the last season, and I’ve watched it all at this point, so what’s a little more. Right?

      (It’s also still fine as background TV, so that’s probably why I still keep up.)

            It’s in because, well, I was surprised that Grey’s Anatomy is in its 22nd season.

            Its interesting that interactions here center on the one pop-culture element of my comment and none on the others. Yes, it’s a non-sequitur. It stands out.

            Is it because the others are all self-evident? Flogged to death? Too controversial? Not controversial enough? Insurmountable?

          I personally find nothing wrong with him, that’s why I put it in quote format.

          It’s an old Scrubs quote by Dr. Cox, who would rattle down long lists of things he dislikes or that he finds wrong with the world in general, ending it with: “… and Hugh Jackman.”

          The comment above mine reminded me of this.
