Why would you even use military time when you could use UCT lmaoserious answer when I was doing night shifts, sometimes I'd wake up and not know whether it was daytime or afternoon because I also live in Seattle and our sun moves weird. So military time allowed me to instantly tell night or day right after waking up. It also removes ambiguity. --- everything is going to b o k ... Copied to Clipboard!

lmao anything more than 12 in the hour u just subtract 12The point is to say things quickly and clearly, and communicate. Seconds matter. Spending an extra 5 seconds per instance, per person, every day to tell someone pm or am, is wasted time, if you add everything up. --- [Feminist][CisGender][Straight Supporter][Non-Binary] I'm not Ashamed to Dress 'like a Woman' because I don't think it's Shameful to be a Woman. ~Iggy Pop~ ...

You can't tell the difference between day and night, yet you're calling other people stupid?Sometimes 6pm and 6am is pitch dark. So instead of wasting time trying to ask morning/evening, you get the exact time, no confusion. This is especially important when you're communicating life/death situations and don't have time fumbling around with extra questions. --- [Feminist][CisGender][Straight Supporter][Non-Binary] I'm not Ashamed to Dress 'like a Woman' because I don't think it's Shameful to be a Woman. ~Iggy Pop~ ...

I don't think most people who say that are actually unable to convert the time, they're just lazy and don't want to think about it, and it's not as ingrained in most of us as the 12-hour clock. Like, if I see or hear "17:00", I don't immediately make the same assumptions and connections I do if I hear "5:00", I have to convert to the 12-hour clock to get there.
