i tell them i use a 100 hour clock. Day starts at 0 at ends at 100. They see how much better it is and they have an existential crisis. And then everyone clapped

Honestly it's not the worst idea, the french have tried something like that during one of their revolutions.

Semi-relatedly, I'm salty they didn't push for duodecimal numbers and base metric on that, it would incorporate the only good part of imperial system & 12-based time system, not only into measurements but also all other aspects of life.

Then they could make time more consistent too, maybe have like 10000 (20736 in decimal) "metric seconds" in a day (which would mean 1 "metric second" ≈ 4 "normal" seconds) and derive stuff from there (e.g. 100 "metric seconds" in a "metric minute", 10 "metric minutes" in a "metric hour", 10 "metric hours" in a "metric day"). Would be really quite neat.

Technically, 1000 beats per day - but yes, Swatch tried this back in ‚99:
