Nine clocks in this house and none of them |
|
have the same time. Everything has a clock on it now, in the kitchen alone there are four, it's a trianglist's wetdream. I approximate the time, if clock a says it x and clock b says its z then it must be c, unless of course I go to another room then clock c says its, aw fuck it.

2. Same here, it's funny on the first day of school when |
|
my granddaughter says "what time do I leave for school?". Her next question is "which clock should I look at?".

3. I have two "atomic clocks" that claim to synch with... |
|
the radio time signals. They are always at least 30 seconds different.
Several real clocks, but I go nuts when the elctricity goes off and the microwave and other stuff starts blinking. I'm just anal enough to have to reset everything.

blink blink blink set me mother, I've got the time number memorized the problem is by the time I get one done then it's changed. I leave the microwave to my wife, it turns out when i think I've got the time set, I've just set cooking time. It's one more thing I'd love to set on the curb.

5. Same in our Household and |
|
my wife has the clock on her side of the bed set ahead about 15 minutes as well as the clock in the bathroom. And the clock on my side of the bed gains about two minutes a month. Then the clock on the stove is slower then the clock on the microwave right above it. Good thing I'm retired and don't really care what time it is. I usually just go by the sun.

8. Same here, but I do that on purpose. |
|
My computer clock is right because that's the one clock that will keep time even if the power's out. But every other clock I set a few minutes further back, depending on the distance from my room. That way when I have to get ready to go, the further away I am from my room, the more pressing the need will be to tear myself away from whatever it is I'm doing. :)
