    yeh but that’s a very slippery slope…

    before long (no clue how long if you can’t read an analogue clock) you’ll have to teach them about 24 hrs in a day, 7 days in a week, 4 weeks in a month, 12 months a year. 365.
    and why we have a Gregorian calendar why it wasn’t always that way.
    oh yeah, and the 29th of February (leap years).

    ain’t nobody got time for that

      Don’t forget, if the year is divisible by 400, it’s not a leap year…

      Yeah, the finer grained details of timekeeping can get confusing, but I learned all that from online sources and curiosity by age 17.

      We really do live in an amazing era where technology does so much for us behind the scenes, until AWS takes a shit anyways…
