“Principal Skinner, how’s your transportation project coming?” – Lisa Simpson
“Oh, excellent. Not only are the trains now running on time, they’re running on metric time. Remember this moment, people, eighty past two on April 47th, it’s the dawn of an enlightened Springfield.” – Principal Skinner
The clock actually shows eighty past one… not that I have a slightest idea of how it is calculated.
The little arrow is pointed at the two. Apparently in metric time the little hand doesn’t move until it’s actually that hour.
Actually, it should be decimal system, not metric system (which has nothing to do with)
