Editing Talk:313: Insomnia

We know it must not be a 24-hour clock. On that setting, 4:31 would be in the afternoon, not at night.[[Special:Contributions/108.162.219.202|108.162.219.202]] 15:11, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

Quite the opposite. 13:00 is 1 in the afternoon, and 4:31 would be 4:31 at night. [[Special:Contributions/199.27.128.144|199.27.128.144]] 04:48, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

I know it's quite a long shot, but polish writer Bruno Shulz wrote a novel "Cinamon Shops", which surprisingly have a style of insomnia-crazy visions. More : http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Street_of_Crocodiles

A typical situation with insomnia is when you blink your eyes for just a moment, then look at the clock and find that in reality a couple of hours have passed (with you asleep though all this time even though you didn't feel like it). Focusing the eyes on the clock afterwards is not an easy task either, so the creative readings are not unusual. Overall, the situation is much more realistic than it seems at first.

-This happens to me all the time actually, I wake up in and check my watch, but since I'm not really fast at waking up I fall asleep for a few minutes before actually checking the watch, and I dream about it. So maybe I've dreamed that it was 6:30 when in fact it is still 4:30. But only real numbers so far (Miguelinileugim) {{unsigned ip|141.101.98.214}}
-:Once it's not only [[wikipedia:real number|real number]]s, prepare for the most confusing 4.71 - 2.38''i'' hours of your life. [[User:Promethean|Promethean]] ([[User talk:Promethean|talk]])
-There's a problem with part of the explanation.  The clock doesn't say "SLEI" upside-down, it says "ZLEI."  This is a common perceptual error, often seen with those inverted face illusions where the head is upside down and the mouth and/or eyes are right-side up.  If you don't know to watch for it, the face looks normal until you turn it over.  [[Special:Contributions/162.158.107.209|162.158.107.209]] 21:32, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Sammael
-: Should have been a '5' not a '2'. [[User:SteveBaker|SteveBaker]] ([[User talk:SteveBaker|talk]]) 16:04, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
-...actually also a problem with the parenthetical "or perhaps a 2."  That digit would then presumably be a full 7-segment LED array and could easily display the E.  [[Special:Contributions/108.162.245.76|108.162.245.76]] 23:39, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Sammael
-Could this be a reference to Buttercup Festival cartoon featuring a clock that reads "13:72" and several jellyfish? [[User:Sugarfi|Sugarfi]] ([[User talk:Sugarfi|talk]]) 17:18, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
-I have a crappily designed microwave oven that, when you set its timer in 10-second increments, goes from 0:40 to 0:50, 0:60, 0:70 etc.  It's thus possible to get the timer to display 13:72, although it's minutes:seconds, not hours:minutes.  [[Special:Contributions/172.70.251.154|172.70.251.154]] 08:18, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
-If those numbers are in octal, then it is quite possible that they are valid. 13:72 can convert to 11:58 [[User:Cwallenpoole|Cwallenpoole]] ([[User talk:Cwallenpoole|talk]]) 16:12, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
