Sure they are, if they are actually slow.
June 7, 2017 11:29 pm at 11:29 pm #1291724☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantHe means that a clock set to the wrong time will always be wrong.
(A “slow clock” refers to a clock set to a time earlier than the actual time,
not a clock that takes longer than 24 hours to run through a day… wait,
that wouldn’t be right twice a day either. What did you mean?)June 7, 2017 11:30 pm at 11:30 pm #1291725☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantTable games […] represent a social contract between players.
In the name of creating fun, everybody agrees to follow some rules,
but also that they’ll care about the nebulous concept of winning, they’ll
be quiet when other people are taking their turn, they won’t leave the
table, they’ll lie, pay attention, think quickly, adopt a character, or
establish some value in winning as a team, or coming second, or… beans*.
[…] A board game is a glass palace of social cues.

that wouldn’t be right twice a day either. What did you mean?You’re right. I’m not sure what I was thinking
June 8, 2017 2:31 pm at 2:31 pm #1292139bmyerParticipantIt’s not that complicated… A clock that’s broken- meaning the hands don’t move will be correct twice a day… For example if the hands are stuck at 12 o’clock it will be wrong the whole day except for 12 am and 12 pm…

But don’t knock someone for the exact thing you yourself displays, and don’t display the exact thing/behavior that you are knocking someone for.

June 15, 2017 8:00 pm at 8:00 pm #1297944☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantA Twitter account is not a quotable source unless it is anonymous.
It’s better than quoting mius celebrities or tumadik songs, no?
On that subject, quoting someone does not usually imply a high regard
for that person or a general agreement with their opinions or behavior.June 15, 2017 9:55 pm at 9:55 pm #1297965YW Moderator-29 👨💻ModeratorYou either ignored the point or missed it altogether

Also, Donald Trump is a “mius celebrity.”(Despite that song’s title, that band I recently attempted to quote

August 18, 2017 2:54 pm at 2:54 pm #1342484mw13ParticipantI become very frustrated when people blame, or place responsibility on, the system. What’s the system? Is it the community’s selfless people who are already doing more than they’re able to do, with less funding than is needed to succeed? Or is it the people who are lamenting that the system isn’t doing enough?

A: Looking at his plate as if it were a clock
face, Billy should place his knife, with the
blade facing him, at 10:00 and 3:00, and
then the fork, with the tines up, directly
underneath the knife. The ends of the sil-
verware should be pointed toward the right.
Consequence: Because of your
rude behavior you must pat your
head and rub your stomach while
saying "I won't be rude" 3 times.
Then move back 4 spaces.

Fork Table Setting Cards, show the
correct way for Billy to place his
silverware on his plate to indicate
that he has finished eating.
