Did you have to fix the date on your watch??
6Just looked at my watch and the date said it was 3/1!! Since I can’t afford a “Smart” watch I guess I should have expected it. Changed it to 2/29 so I’ll have to check it again tomorrow to see if it can figure out that it actually is 3/1 and doesn’t go to 2/30!!

Mine is an auto that thinks every month has 31 days. I have to adjust the date 5 times a year. So today it’s correct, tomorrow not so much.
Honestly, I never bother changing the date on my watches. Too much hassle! I keep the time correct, that is all. I frequently need to know what time it is. I rarely need to know what day it is, when I do I have to pull my phone out my pocket.
nope. smart watch.
The watch face is a lie! it’s just a tiny screen!
/showme pitted dates on a watch
@mediocrebot fixed it!
@mehcuda67 Similar to the missing/incorrect digits on the humans and animals, Bot’s got some issues here. Is this a lapel watch? And different number of hours in the day?
/showme a pitted date on a watch
@mediocrebot Yes, clearly the date needs to be fixed on my watch.

Aww, how romantic!
@Kyeh Apparently the watch on the left is expecting to “tango”.
@Kyeh @macromeh it’s two o’clock somewhere!
@Kyeh @macromeh And the one on the right isn’t having any.
My only real concern is devices like cameras with internal digital calendars that might not reflect a 29th day in February. Fortunately all the ones I’ve dealt with so far go by year as well as by month, so they automatically add the 29th day every 4 years.
@PooltoyWolf Watch out for 2100 if you get that far.
@werehatrack With my track record of keeping older stuff going, I plan to lmao! Already ran into at least one camera whose clock will not advance past 2020.
Mine is a manual watch, so I have to update it for months that aren’t 31 days. Thanks for the reminder!
@mbersiam and I usually catch it like five days later!
@mbersiam So you have a calendar watch that requires a calendar to keep it accurate?
@macromeh it’s manual with a date display. The date hand always goes to 31 days. So I have to wind my watch forward 24 hours for month with 30 days, and more for February.
Never fixed the date, but my date fixed me on her watch, and now we’re married.
@OnionSoup
So you got fixated on her?
@Kyeh @OnionSoup Sounds like it was fated they be mated (for which he’s elated).
