No? Do you say it digit by digit? Two zero nine eight six seven five three zero nine? What about years? Two thousand nineteen, twenty nineteen, or two zero one nine?

Youre the one who said they didnt like people grouping big numbers into tens.

Yeah. You say each digit. Usually with the grouping of 3 digits, 3 more, than 4 (or 2 and 2 if theyre not the fastest writer)...

All I wanted to know was what time it was and you wasted my time and gave me a shitty math problem. I want pertinent information not to solve the motherfucking da vince code.


XD

I understand but really I don't think having the time said to you in that way constitutes to a math problem. And it doesn't really need to be calculated either and if you are calculating it in your head then I think it's just a matter of you not being accustomed to this. This plus a preference for the other format.

How much milk did you buy at the store?
Milk cost 2.49 per gallon with the inclusion of sales tax. I had 13 dollars and bought all the milk I could have.

The answer is there, and its pretty easy. But you also couldve just said five gallons

Thats because thats a math problem. Its written/sounds like like. 5 til is pretty simple though. And not written/sounds like a math problem.

What time is it?
Ten til two

What time is it?
Five til four

What time is it?
Quarter past noon

STOP. I ASKED WHAT TIME IT IS NOT WHAT TIME IT IS GOING TO BE.
1:50!
3:55!!
12:15!!!!!!!

Quarter past noon is the current time of they told you that. But like Winter said, you still got the time. Which is what you asked for. You could also invest in a watch so you wouldnt have to ask. Or use your phone...

I do have a watch. That doesnt make people who tell the time like shitfucking idiots less shitfucky.

If you have a watch and the other person look so confused at the other person, you can help them. But most people understand why the other person is saying almost immediately, as they got an answer. If they dont like the format of how the time was given to them, they should get a device on which to tell time. As Mead said, r/choosingbeggers...
