    There is some truth to that, but this doesn’t seem like the thing to focus on, if that’s the goal. Surely there is a better subject to fulfill those needs.

    Like… If we all forgot how to keep time, and we had to invent a new system of time keeping… Surely we could do better than what we have now.

      You sound like someone who doesn’t know how to read an analoge clock.

      I bet you could figure it out if you looked it up. And you would be better for it ❤️

        Probably not. I can read an analogue clock and I am no better or worse for it.

          What? Of course you are better off for it. You know how to read time more than one way.

            In what way am I better off for being able to read time in more than one way?

              Imagine life in the post-apocalyptic hellscape. All electronic devices have been rendered useless due to the EMPs from all the nuclear blasts. You, with your unfathomable ability to tell the time from an old wind-up clock, are viewed as a literal god among men (and women)

              In what way am I better off being able to read cyrilic as well as latin script? Truly a dilemma of a century.

          Jokes on you, because just that you learned to read analogue clocks, makes your brain more plastic. I am sure you know what that word means, but for anyone else, plastic means adaptable. The more things you learn the easier it is to learn more things.

            LMAO yeah right. If it wasn’t for learning to tell analogue time, I wouldn’t have had enough brain plasticity to finish college, oh thank god for being able to tell round time. I think you might need to keep chipping away at your own brain plasticity friendo because I don’t think learning analogue time was enough for you.

        You sound like one of those edgelords who acts like grumpy old men who cry at young people for doing things differently.

        I bet you could stop talking and everyone would like you better ♥️
