Good Afternoon Australia. What the heck is going on with the time zones in your country?

I’m presuming the situation in Australia is caused by time slowing down at certain times of the year when you are that close to the south pole?

DAFAQ?!

Australia spreads over three Greenwich Mean Time Zones and lower equatorial time zones adhere to Daylight Savings, as to better trade with pacific partners and have access to more daylight hours.

America has Daylight savings time and multiple time zones as well spreading across a swatch of longitudinal lines, so WTF OP?

True, but the USA doesn't do the time zones in odd ways like half hours or even weirder, the 45 minutes one. Seriously, that's just retarded. It's like some mong who thought they were being clever was in charge of making that decision.

Yeah its abo, no one recognizes it.

The rest are based on GMT and the +1 South to North is DLS. Pretty standard really.

My patriotic time zones are orderly and regimented and proceed logically from east to west across the country as the founding fathers specified in our constitution. And daylight savings may seem weird but its a great retirement program that our government is going to use to replace social security. Our central bank is so smart the jews there figured out how to tax daytime! Take that Australia.
