Stupid time zone question here. |
|
My TV has Fox on (not Fox news), and they are "live" in NYC. I live in Chicago. Why isn't it past midnight in NYC? It's 11:40 here.

You're just in a different time zone than New York. I've always lived in EST, and I used to wonder what the other zones thought of the annual New York thing. Don't you have your own Chicago thing on TV?

5. The center of the universe is in NYC... |

they will show some lame ass stuff happening around here, but other than that, what happens in NYC is considered national.

Apparently, the "Centre of the Universe" has just been transplanted to an area encompassing South East Asia, much to the shegrin of useless, poncey New Yorkers who would actually THINK the world at large even gives a fuck, or breaths life into, to such passe sentiment.
