Do you adjust the time of the clocks in your home faster/slower than the actual time by a few miunutes or so?
In my home, the wall clock is fast by 10 minutes, while the clock in the bathroom is fast by 5 minutes. A few other clocks are either fast or slow by around 3 minutes... not sure. So... if you do this in your home, does your brain tell you the time you see on the clock or does it automatically process the actual time for you? Well maybe as I know how fast/slow each clock is, I somehow tell myself the actual time (not the one I see on the clock) instead. Which makes the adjusting of the clock... pretty useless. P.S. I searched in The Lounge and nothing came up. And I love the new search bar!  [/random]

blah i'm always late so i try setting my clock a few minutes fast but i always know that it's fast so it doesn't really work...the clock i used to have on top of my tv was 5 minutes fast and that annoyed me but i was too lazy to go fix it so i got accustomed to it. then when someone fixed it, i got confused and had to get reacquainted with telling time normally.
