In summary, "Spring Forward: Don't Clocks at PF Chang's" is a play on words that refers to the annual practice of changing our clocks for daylight saving time and the popular Asian restaurant chain, PF Chang's. Daylight saving time was initially implemented as a way to save energy and improve productivity, and it occurs on different dates depending on the location. While not all countries observe daylight saving time, it has been shown to have negative effects such as disrupting our sleep patterns and causing confusion.
