    I would be interested in knowing whether this was said with sarcasm or without. Because both are plausible!

      I think most people in the US don’t travel to other countries, so they almost never see a 24h clock. Whenever, we do see 24h time, most people call it “military time”, probably cuz of movies or something.

        I know it’s called that way, because I’ve seen the same movies. But was SolidShake meaning his comment sarcastically, meaning that “There was no way for me to know that most of the world uses the normal clock” or without sarcasm, meaning “I had always assumed that most of the world uses the normal clock.”

        He could really mean either one. I could probably delve into his comment history and make some kind of a psychoanalysis based on those comments? But, meh.
