    It’s crazy to me how people keep making memes where the group with Florida isn’t a part of the mental illness. Really speaks to the severity of their mental illness.

    What’s ‘Mountain’? I’ve seen TV shows advertised as Eastern, then their voice gets quiet and they mention Central. Sometimes they do the same for Pacific. Never heard of ‘Mountain.’ Sounds fake.

      If you live in Eastern, you’ve heard Central on tv or the radio because it neighbors you and some people in Central might be getting the same broadcast. You’ve heard Pacific because a lot of media is out of LA. There’s nothing important in the Mountain time zone, and it’s far away from you, so you don’t hear about it often.

      It’s 245pm in California right now.

      If you go to parts of Arizona they might tell you it’s 345pm. Ask in Phoenix and they’ll say 245pm.

      Ask in Phoenix in the winter and they remember to say hour different from Pacific time.

      They can’t get the story straight.

      They claim it includes New Mexico, but I don’t see why we’d have a new Mexico when the old one is still perfectly good. Sounds fake to me

        The area that New Mexico occupies was named Nuevo Mexico before Mexico existed and was called Mexico, which makes Nex Mexico, OG Mexico.

    The ISS uses UTC but they have a sunrise and sunset every 45 minutes so it’s not really connected to the sun like us terrestrials.

    I guess we don’t have the concept of time in Canada (or Mexico) based on this map. Thats also ignoring all of the other world timezones

    edit: I’d also label anything American mental illness but I’d be catching my own strays given I’m in EST
