      Seriously, though. It takes less brain processing power and just about the same speech-time to just say the dang time.

      I did the same thing with my parents, mostly because they’d just say “quarter after” but would never say any number. If you made a word cloud of everything I’ve ever said in my life, “after what” would be gigantic in the center with every other word tiny around the edges.
