Do you correlate dates with times on a digital clock? (lemmy.ml)

I mean oddities mostly. I corelate the area code of my highschool love, and often the birthday of another. It has no significance beyond a few pleasant memories, but it is just one of life's oddities for me. Do you experience similar oddities?

All numerical dates are represented on a 12 hour clock.

Only if you use mmdd date format. The majority of the world uses ddmm.

    Yeah, but neither makes sense any more. I use yymmdd in my default file naming for natural sorting hierarchy. I just don't think in that context. I guess that makes this post an interesting reflection from a couple of extra angles.

    Our US 3 digit area codes for phone number regions are likely not really paralleled elsewhere in the world either. It's interesting all the little cultural subtleties that shape the mind.
