How many clocks did you reset today? (Hawaiians, don't mock!)

In My Humble Opinion
21

How are we supposed to set them again?

If it is three oclock now, and I live in Maryland, should I change my clock to two oclock or to four oclock? (note: it is not really three oclock)

I have a test tomorrow at 11 oclock, and I dont want to miss it because I am the only person who changed my clock, or the only person who didnt change my clock.

Great. Now I’ve said clock too much.
Sneeze, who has spent too much time reading about reducing agents that oxidize other agents, and by doing so are themselves reduced, to understand the whole thing about clocks

22

One watch, one analog clock above my desk, one alarm clock, and one computer clock because it thought it was still Saturday.

23

Just my watch. The computers update themselves, and the only other clock in the house is the alarm clock, which I don’t use.

24

Sneeze: Spring forward, fall back.

Easy, eh?

Of course, it makes just as much sense to say, “Fall forward, spring back,” so it’s really just luck.

25

Thank you, friedo.

Spring forward, fall back.

Setting clocks back one hour, two oclock to one oclock.

Sweet! One extra hour to agonize over the test tomorrow!

love

becuase the clocks i use the watch setting on my cable box and there hooked in some national time computer and my computer clock resets its self

27

I didn’t have to reset any clocks. I’m another one of those weird Indiana people who shun everyone else for having to change their clocks.

28

Bedroom: 2 (Alarm clock, clock on CD player)
Living room: 1 (VCR)
Kitchen: 2 (Wall clock, clock on microwave)
Studio: 1 which may not count (Computer)
My person: 1 (watch)
Car: 1

So, eight.

[Free Spanish Lesson]
“¡Ha ha ha! Aquí no se necesita cambiar los relojes…”

When there’s no subject, it’s better to use reflexive verbs rather than us a verb with no subject. Hence, it’s better to say “no se necesita” than “no es necesario.”

Unless you speak a different kind of Spanish than the one I learned in high school, which is entirely possible…

I’ve always heard it as “Spring ahead, fall back”. That way you don’t “fall ahead”… :slight_smile:

31

in my teeny tiny studio apartment i had to reset 5 clocks, including the one on my computer that was supposed to reset itself, (but, the women in my family do have a tendancy to haunt the electrical appliances, my computer is very moody and changes something everyday). who knew i was so obsessed with time?

32

I think I’m at 34, not counting the computer and downstairs VCR which adjust themselves.
Kitchen - 2 microwaves, oven, tv, coffeemaker, timer, answering machine, wall clock, counter radio
Garage - 2 cars, wall clock,
Living room - mantle clock, thermostat, tv
Master bedroom - 2 alarm clocks, 1 alarm watch, tv, vcr
Kids rooms - 2 boombox clock radios, 2 wall clocks
Bathrooms - 2 wall clocks
Watches - 4
Cell phones - 3
Pager - 1

Muy amable, rasta, pero seguro que no necesito lecciones en español de ti, gratis o no. Posiblemente mi frase no fue muy feliz, pero no fue incorrecto. Estas parandote en pequeñeces.

34

Sixteen, not counting various tv, vcr’s and our beloved computer which set themselves, thank you to those genius’ who thought THAT particular feature into existence!!

Most of those clocks were battery operated too, which meant replacing all the batteries… NOW I know who helps keep that energizer bunny going! :wink:

35

0 clocks reset.
God I love being a Hoosier.

36

The way I learned it, spring ahead, fall behind is even better (fall ahead, spring behind is nonsense).

I reset two clocks, two VCR’s, two watches, and a microwave.

37

I’m from Hawaii and I had to reset the recording timer on both my TV and my VCR because Cartoon Network and the other cable channels I have all run on California time.

C’est le me.

And Osaka joining in as well. :stuck_out_tongue:

2 VCRs, an alarm clock, my computer and a watch making…just five.

(I forget, though, that my newer VCR adjusts for daylight savings automagically…)
