What does a.m. mean to you? May 6, 2008

Here’s a conversation I had about 20 times in the past 5 days.
Me: “Are you coming for the Pangea Day event?”
Person: “I have to work the next day lah.”
Me: “…”
Person: “Wut.”
Me: “It’s 2.00 a.m. on Sunday. ON SUNDAY. It’s errr, Saturday night or Sunday morning. Not Sunday night.”
Person: “Owait.”
Me: “The clearest I can get is, 3 hours after the show ends, it’s 9.00 a.m. Sunday morning. You can sleep the rest of the day.”
Person: “Right.”
Really? It’s that hard to understand “11 May 2008 (Sunday), 2-6 a.m. ??”

It’s just bad timing. I’m so not going to watch it during that hours.
A timing is ‘bad’ if there’s a choice. To accommodate this round earth, they had to pick an arbitrary time. So they went with GMT +0, 6-10 p.m. (prime time television). Which is a fairly good, neutral choice in my opinion.
But yeah, the timing is bad for us. What to do.
