Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

Do we?
Adding 12 to a number isnt that hard
Neither is subtracting it. It appears we are at an impasse
Guessing if you need to subtract it is, however
Gee it's 16:00, I wonder if I should subtract 12 to convert the time
Guessing each time if 12 needs to be added (with usually important consequences if you guess wrong) is.
If you need to guess to convert, wouldnt you need to guess if its AM or PM?
Yes. You need to guess if it's AM or PM. That's what the comment is about.
If whoever says the time uses 24h or explicitly says AM/PM there's no guessing involved.
Are you ten years old or something? How is telling time this difficult for you?
I got confused by the message i was replying to, thinking they were saying that you have to guess to convert between the 2
No, this is what is confusing you. It's like you never had any simple education, or you're completely unaware of your surroundings.
How is it possible to be so confused about clocks?
I can easily read clocks
I can easily understand time with AM/PM
People writing time without AM/PM is the part i dont understand
I rest my case, your honor.
Yes
Yeah my company doesn't care when I come and go as long as I work 40 hours and don't miss meetings. 4 day workweeks are generally frowned upon but you can do it now and then.
Did you reply to the wrong comment?
(Cool though!)
I think I just got confused, sorry.
No worries mate
