The only part I hate is moving wind-up clocks forward thirteen hours.
Most (all?) of them don't like being turned backwards.
Or so I've been led to believe. Logical to me. I only have two.

Why would you do that?  I just stop it for an hour and push the pendulum
again.  If I forget, I may have to push it forward a few minutes.

I misspoke. The clocks are battery operated, analog clocks with dials on
the back to change the time. One is hung on a nail in the wall that I
have to hook the damned clock back onto after re-centering on the
sliding nail (not in a stud). The other is near the ceiling, over the
TV, that I have to get on a stepladder for. I'm not a fan of any kind of
ladder anymore.

I'd definitely get rid of that clock.  Our TV sits on a cart with
several shelves.  One of them holds an illuminated digital clock
that resets to/from DST with a single button.
