    And yet in schools they don’t have seconds. Never had

    I still have ptsd thanks to that. Can you imagine? No seconds?

    This is pure torture that should be forbidden by Geneva convention. So uncivilised

    Analog clocks are kind of annoying tbh. Sometimes you need that little extra energy you have to spend on wondering whether it is 11:37 or 11:38 already by carefully visually bisecting the circle section between 7 and 8.
    Millimetres of white space keep you wondering about the nature of analogue vs digital, discrete vs continuous and measurement uncertainty while you have better things to do but cannot just give up on OCDing whether it is exactly 11:37:30 already or maybe it is 11:37:35? And boom in these seconds you were wondering it is already pointless because it is the past and now it is time to wonder if it is 11:38:15 or 11:38:30

    Whereas for digital it is just:
    oh it is 11:11 on 11.11.11, how cool, life’s good

    Thus it is my opinion that analogue clocks are virgins whereas digital are chads
