Like how we all face the door in an elevator or feel the need to say ‘ope’ when we almost bump into someone. What’s a silent rule of society that you find hilarious or totally unnecessary?

It has been introduced in my country during the early 80s, so I have to disagree on that one.
That’s just about 40 years ago, so pretty sure there are still people left who agreed to it.
Yeah, I was over-simplifying to make my statement more dramatic and semi-funny, because so many people hate the clock-switching.
It’s complicated. DST is mostly observed in North America, Europe, and part of Australia, and mostly since pre- or during WWII, BUT yes there are a few countries that started later. There are also some original ones that stopped observing it and then started again later. Also, some of the people still alive from when it started would have been too young to be able to agree to it.
So I’ll amend my statement to “The vast majority of people alive today didn’t agree to DST”. Doesn’t have the same punch.
l agree that it’s complicated.
The DST in the early 80s actually was the 3rd time people introduced it here, one of the predecessors of our current state even being the first country to ever use it in its current form during WWI.
