[GPN] Why Seeing 03:27 In a Timer Bugs Me?
Author: Indie Developer News Pipe | Filed under: Indie DevelopmentWe have this fridge magnet that has timer in it. You can set up minutes and seconds and start/stop (and reset) the timer. Today at some point I had stopped the timer at 03:27. Later I saw the number again and it slightly bothered me but I didn’t press the reset button. Yet.
But the next time I just had to reset the timer to 00:00 and was like “phew”. Now things are in shape again and I can enjoy my orange juice in peace.
I’m no control freak but like to keep things organized.
Still, it’s a bit of a mystery to me why humans (or at least one of them) are designed this way? Rationally thinking, there’s no need to reset timer from 03:27. Reseting takes like half a second of my time so it’s okay to leave it there. It doesn’t hurt anybody.
But annoyed me enough that I had to do the reset after passing by it couple of times.
Pretty crazy. Kind of.
