You fool! I use 24H time, which requires analogue, or a really cluttered clock face. THIS is the signature look of superiority.

Feels more like we should teach kids better rather than remove the clocks.

Wife, for years, thought the "second hand" on a clock was called that because it was the "2nd" hand on the clock...which confused her. Took her over 30 years to realize it's the "seconds" hand because it counts seconds.

I guess she is not entirely off, either. It's called that because it is the second division of an hour.

So, schools aren't even capable of teaching students how to read clocks anymore?

Schools have more important things to teach kids with the limited time they have

It floors me just how many people in this thread feel like analog clock reading is a useless/outdated skill.

But I'm of the opinion that there's no such thing as a truly outdated and useless skill, so I'm not sure I have the capability to empathize with those people...

As a person who prefers analog clocks I disagree

What benefit does analog bring over digital other than nostalgia?
Once is objectively faster to read granularly, by the minute
