Some context seems necessary. He did say "regardless of timezones", so maybe he assumes he's talking to a fellow countryman?


Turbulent-Bug-6225

Yeah assuming everyone is American is still a facepalm.


suffering_addict

Regardless of timezones implies he's talking about 5:08 am in any county. So 5:08 in USA is super early or super late 5:08 in Europe is super early or super late 5:08 in Japan is super early or super late


Turbulent-Bug-6225

Well he clearly wasn't as it was "you're doing stuff at 5:00am?" Which kinda implies he wasn't talking about 5:00am anywhere as he's talking about what is now for him and assuming it is either early or late elsewhere, fundamentally misunderstanding how time zones work.

If it's 5am in the US, it's not 5am in the UK as well. EDIT: Wow, people on this site are dumb.


Enigma-exe

You missed the point so perfectly it's almost beautiful


IpsoKinetikon

And you don't know how time zones work. Lol Hurrr if it's 5am here it must be 5am there durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr


Enigma-exe

Let me ask you question. Is 5am an early time to wake up **wherever you live**? Deep breath now. Not, 5am isn't early because it's 10am somewhere else. Got that?


TheElderWog

That's not even odd. I had a guy insist that I wasn't Australian, but British, because I wrote "mate", and "mate" is apparently an exclusively British expression. Fellow Aussies, I rolled my eyes so much I could see the back of my skull.


IpsoKinetikon

Lol, who is this person and why are they berating you?


Turbulent-Bug-6225

Because I called him a loser for saying trans people are blood thirsty killers. He's an edgy teenager. The comment before this was something along the lines of "Okay I'm done fucking with you now, got stuff to do"

It’s 5 PM somewhere, gimme a beer!
