Time Zone Dyslexia

A condition where the sufferer routinely adds or subtracts wrong when planning things in more than one time zone.

Side effects include missed appointments, multiple calendar resends, manic tap-dancing through that presentation you thought was 2 hours from now. Adrenaline, cringing, lame apologies.

Coping mechanisms: OCD-like checking of the hour; counting out from East to West coast on your fingers. Pinky: Eastern is 1 pm; Ring finger is Central - so, noon; Pacific is the pointer, that'd be 10 a.m. - right? Right?
You told NYC to dial in at 10 but Chicago at 11; so is the call for 10 or 12EST?
D'oh! 10EST. Sorry - Time Zone Dyslexia.

Tumblr Time Zone 

That one period of time, (usually around 4-5 hours) in the day when almost all of the people you follow on Tumblr are active.
After the Tumblr Time Zone passed, it got really boring, with no one active and posting.

Dario Time Zone 

Located somewhere between -7 GMT and god knows where in the greenwich time zones, or Super Mario World time. (-0 SMT) The Dario Time Zone is comparible to the likes as the imperial measurement system is as silly to the rest of the metric world, but in time measurement. Hours, minutes, days, weeks, could very well be the same damn thing, or not.
Hey Mario, I'll be by in 20 minutes!

Lol Dario....Sorry But your watch is in another castle. Or another Dario Time Zone...

someone who is always an hour behind everyone else because they get distracted easily by life's simple wonders.
Ex. sleeping, facebook, youtube...

Timezonecist 

When you assume another persons time-zone, you're timezonecist.
You: ''You're Eastern time. I'll see you at 8.''
Someone: ''Did you just assume my timezone? I'll have you know I'm Central not Eastern. You're Timezonecist!''

time zone advantage 

When someone from another earlier time zone tells someone happy birthday before you
Person: Happy Birthday! Was I the first one?
B day person: no my friend from Britain told me first
Person: that doesn't count they had the time zone advantage
