Wow yeah that 10 extra seconds must have felt like torture.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Nah ... I'm trying to build up to 1 min and I'm only up to about 25 seconds at the moment. I do 25, rest for a second, then get back up again ... this time it was just funny because I kept expecting to hear the 1 minute mark and it was driving my crazy to not hear the alarm. The extra ten seconds was just me grabbing the screenshot because I realized how dumb I was.

I mean yeah i was just teasing cause it was only such a short time over 1 min, and i figured it must have taken some time to check your phone. Keep at it though, youll keep making progress!

Average american child so brainrotted that they can't read a minute:second countdown, god has cursed them to not understand 24H clocks either, because only the military and every European country uses it.

Lmao, what? How do you get from "accidentally set my timer wrong" to "America dumb"?

Indicator for minutes and seconds: MM:SS

Indicator for hours and minutes: HH:MM

Perhaps, you are the idiot for not understanding the mistake.

While I agree, this could just be a muscle memory issue. Just happened to hit the wrong thing. Or it's all bullshit because who the fuck talks about planking anymore.... Unless we're talking about Plancking but that's more two people with really small dicks jousting so I doubt that applies as it's not really a time based event.

You failed didn’t you? Be honest

My muscular abs gave out after 20 seconds .... I lay silent for 40 seconds waiting for the alarm and I wondered why it took so long.

I remember when I first had the date show on my windows taskbar and it was for example 10/30 and also 10:30 and I was staring at the date wondering why it was perpetually "10:30" lol

Stuck with it now. I hope you can hold the plank another 58 minutes.
