I’m British and I only eat beans and curry, so I can’t see any problem here.

No it doesn’t. “Time zones around the world are expressed using positive or negative offsets from UTC, as in the list of time zones by UTC offset.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time
Time now in UTC is 10:33, no matter where on the planet you are.
Well you can. Just switch your clock to UTC and you’re done. You won’t even have DST to deal with.
This whale is near. That country is far away.
Which countries have been successful in implementing your preferred alternative?
I know someone who insists LOL means “lots of love”.
His text “My mother-in-law died last night LOL” still fails to parse.
Next time you’re driving somewhere, just pick a pedal and push it to see if it has the desired effect. If you go faster that’s the gas. If you go slower that’s the brake. If neither of them do anything try switching the engine on. You might need to fiddle with the gearstick as well, one of them makes you go backwards, the others are forwards. Just experiment and you’ll figure it out.
Preferably well away from any othe traffic.
We even like combining them in one thing. Tyres are measured using inches for one dimension and millimetres for the other two.
Why would you demand metric everything and not metric time?
Clearly someone who’s never accidentally tasted dandelion milk.
Oh I don’t know. Healthy people, kept healthy by science, live longer, earn more, tithe more; some even get to reverse tithe (where they keep 10% and give the rest away).
It’s a single example that disproves the hypothesis “science and religion must always oppose”. Only one example is needed, in the same way that the Riemann hypothesis only needs a single zero off the critical line to prove it’s false.
Well let’s have a look at the Tory track record of implementing things effectively. How about Boris’s oven ready deal? Seems he didn’t have one. Was he lying? Or did he have one that he thought the EU would accept until they laughed him out of the room? How’s the Rwanda plan going? How much has it cost so far? How many flights have left? Hmm.
Setup for one of those elf on a shelf gags?
I think it’d be the “like this” option.
It sank into the ocean after Putin pressed the wrong button.
Some trans men have boobs; calling them women is the worst crime imaginable: misgendering.
