Ok what is this 12mn 12nn madness
I assumed NooN and MidNight
Oh I know what they put them there for. I just find it obscene.
I dunno, people get confused by 12pm often, this feels like a relatively elegant solution.
Of course there’s also that other solution. You know, the one the rest of the world uses.
Suddenly having a base with 12 is good? I bet you split hours into fractions too.

Ew, but it’s foreign!
A test of concentration, clearly you’re not one of us
Translation: 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 7:00, 8:00, 9:00, 10:00, 11:00, 12:00, 13:00, 14:00, 15:00, 16:00, 17:00, 18:00, 19:00, 20:00, 21:00, 22:00, 23:00, 0:00
Thanks.
To anyone reading this, do you find yourself unable to keep from nodding off in the middle of the day? You might have sleep apnea. If you can see a doctor, you should. I got a cpap and it changed my life. I went from being able to fall asleep anywhere at any time (and having to take a nap on my lunch break), to being truly well-rested every day for the first time in years.
I fell asleep half way through that paragraph
And if you don’t have sleep apnea, you might have narcolepsy. It’s not as dramatic and obvious as is portrayed in movies.
First time I’ve ever seen noon and midnight represented as 12nn and 12mn, and I’m kinda down for it.
No
I wish in English we said 19 o’clock out loud, and I’m not ashamed (even though I know it’ll never happen)
I know it’s a joke, but this led me to get diagnosed with narcolepsy. So, just FYI.
Oh my god you communicate with the spirits of the dead!
Could also just be an insomniac like me. No narcolepsy and I can sleep like a baby, but getting to sleep is like pulling teeth. Life’s responsibilities don’t follow my shitty sleep patterns tho, so I’m constantly not getting enough sleep.
It’s the opposite for me. Usually, I can fall asleep very quickly and easily. But I can’t stay asleep and I don’t feel rested after sleeping.
First time I’ve seen the distinction 12nn and 12mn for noon and midnight - I like it!
It works, but it’s still a workaround for a thoroughly confusing notation instead of just using 24h time.
Counting to 12 twice is not really thoroughly confusing
12nn
I thought this was Tommy Wiseau as I scrolled past…
