    It’s called rhetorical question.

    I’d argue that you are a very small minority. Most people under 50 probably barely have any analog clocks around.

      Every home/apt of every under 40 year old person I have ever been in has had at least one analog clock. And most have had several.

      Also, grandfather clocks are a thing. And they’re gorgeous.

      Extremely anti-social to act like digital clocks are better - similar to acting like social media and Facetime calls are in any way superior to irl face-to-face interaction - as our current loneliness epidemic demonstrates

      I disagree, I am under 50 and wear an analog wristwatch every day, but if I want to know the time I just look on my phone.
