@MelissaBearTrix one has to know the right time of day for peak merkan tourists happening along...

@MsDropbear42 @MelissaBearTrix

Time is just a myth perpetuated by the manufacturers of Space.

@cptbutton @MelissaBearTrix hey, but space is really big! i mean, you might think it's a long way to the chemist's, but that's nothing compared to space! 🐳🌻

@MelissaBearTrix I recently started wearing an analogue wristwatch again, so yeah. I got one with numbers rather than indicator marks cus that's my preference, but I CAN use a numberless analouge clock too if I have to.
@MelissaBearTrix "does anybody really know what time it is"
@ireneista ooh, oooooooh, i know this one! teacher, teacher, pick me, pick meeeeeeeeeeeee!

And, of course, the best response to that - at least, if it's about 3:34 or 3:35 AM...

@ireneista @MelissaBearTrix More importantly: Does anybody really care? About time?

@grumpybozo @ireneista

Some people do ... I don't understand them ... Hugz

@MelissaBearTrix I am the kid from that one image that's just a drawing of a digital clock with the prompt "draw a clock that shows 10 minutes past 11" so what do you think
@MelissaBearTrix My youngish coworkers are so confused when I use terms like "half past" or "a quarter to"

@bbamok

Try other numbers like 20 to ... Giggles

@MelissaBearTrix I became worse at it over time. But I learned it as a child and can still do it when necessary. Just not as quickly as I used to.
@MelissaBearTrix if they don't teach this in schools anymore I am severely disappointed

@xfts

I'm disappointed anyway ... Giggles

Hugz & xXx

@MelissaBearTrix It's a quarter to ten of the clock lol

@sunumbral

Ding ding ding

Hugz & xXx

@MelissaBearTrix yeah, but it takes some mental effort . it's not like i glance at it and immediately know
@sodiboo @MelissaBearTrix i need to count the minutes sometimes but I can definitely tell

@sparkles @sodiboo

That's fine ... Hugz
