You Americans with your imperial system. 9:77 o'clock is 10:17 in metric. /s
156 2 ReplyI see the s, but you have it backwards. 9:77 is clearly metric time, with 100 minutes per hour...

OP said Kmart, Kmart is dead in the USA, so the buyer is probably Australian or New Zealander.
21 2 Replyor it's a tweet from 10+ years ago
25 0 ReplyWhich makes waaaaaay more sense as everyone uses their phone for alarms now rather than a fucking clock lmao
7 3 ReplyUmmm I still use a clock. It played the radio which I like as an alarm better. Plus you can hit the snooze so easily.

I don't think Twitter was founded by the time Kmart left the big cities around 20 years ago.
1 0 ReplyI can guarantee there was a K-Mart in Sacramento, CA, at LEAST until 2019, possibly 2022 but my memory of being in the area in 2022 is hazy
Twitter def existed well before they were gone from populated areas
1 0 ReplyOh wow, I thought they had left cities in the early 2000s although maybe that was just TX. I thought they completely left the states by 2015.

Last time I set foot in a K mart was in 2015 in Greensboro NC.
1 0 ReplyWow, they were all out from the DFW metroplex and only found in rural cities by 2005 at the latest in TX. I thought they had all closed down by 2015.
1 0 ReplyThat last one I mentioned was pretty late in its going out of business sale. It shut down a few weeks later.

Also the clock says it's 17 degrees Celsius, although to be fair I think it's established that the clock is unreliable.
15 0 ReplyI assume the 59% is humidity? So they took the time to make the clock indicate humidity but couldn't make it indicate time.
9 0 ReplyNo it is just 59% just in case you need to know how much percent it is.
8 0 Replyhow much percent what is?
1 0 ReplyIt
4 0 ReplyMaybe it's a certainty. The clock is 59% sure that it is 9:77 right now.

A great man once said Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so. ... so why not temperature too?
5 0 ReplyVery deep. You should send that in to the Readers Digest. They've got a page for people like you.

Kmart isn't completely dead in the US. There are two in the states, three in the US Virgin Islands, and one in Guam
