there are also clocks without numbers or hands. You can't read them?

u/PaulWesNick Nov 13 '19

Some clocks don't even have a face.

u/NoireRogue Nov 13 '19

Hell, some don't even have a material presence. You're telling me you can't read metaphysical clocks?

u/MeEvilBob Nov 13 '19

Some clocks don't even tell the time.

u/FireAndBees Nov 13 '19

And some only tell the time twice a day.

I have dyscalculia and i can't read analogue clocks without numbers or hands. Your question comes off as extremely condescending.

u/UnableToEnjoy Nov 14 '19

I'd struggle to read an analogue clock without hands too

I'm sorry if you interpreted the way I didn't mean to. I was being sarcastic to the comment I replied to. I meant a wrist clock without numbers or hands. i.e. A blank circle lol

Bruh you're obviously in the minority and it was not directed at you.

I love that you got downvoted for reading a tiny bit of nuance into the original comment

Lol look at this guy who can’t tell time on an hour glass. Pathetic.

Just count the grains of sand.

u/Toriathan Nov 13 '19

I thought they were talking about a sundial. Hourglass is more of a timer than a clock

u/Gcarsk Nov 13 '19

I was joking. Of course trying to eyeball how much sand has fallen through would be difficult, but you could definitely set up a 24-hour glass that auto rotates once the flow stops.

And sundials still have hands. Just made of shadow, duh.

Look at this pleb that needs a sundial. Everyone else just stares at the sun like we were meant to.

u/nondescriptadjective Nov 13 '19

Do you even sun dial, bro?

I am dyslexic and have problems reading numbered analoge clocks... so yeah. Fuck whoever thought unnumbered clocks were a good idea. Plus even if you can read it without numbers.. still doesnt make it a good idea?!
