As it turns out, the “Leap Second” ruins New Years.

For those of you who don’t know, scientists have added an additional second to the end of this year to keep up with the fact that the Earth is spinning a little bit slower every day.  I have no issue with that.  That seems legitimate.  A little excessive reaction maybe, but it makes sense.

Do we really have to add one second to the ONLY TIME DURING THE YEAR PEOPLE ARE COUNTING DOWN?!?!?!  Ridiculous placement.  I have to think that only scientists who spent as much time being socially inept as the ones who are calculating the slowing speed of the Earth and ways to combat it, would consider this timing to be a good idea.

Here we go!  Five…  Four… Three… Two… One… One…  HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Assholes.  For people who claim to control time, you have a terrible sense of timing.
