On the other hand, "perfect is the enemy of progress". While this certainly doesn't solve the issue, it is an (admittedly minor) improvement.

This was essentially me once, but for real. I was running as exercise and discovered that if i slowed down i didn't get nearly as tired and could run much further! I thought i had just had an absolutely genius thought and was really proud of myself. It wasn't until later that i realised that no, i was just being really fucking dumb, as usual.

I've found "they" and "their" to be useful words

As his supporters laughed, Trump then went on to say that reporters attending the rally would take his words out of context and tell viewers that the ex-president had said a “horrible” thing onstage.

Title is literally that

Just one objection: Jesus wasn't perfect, that was kinda a big part of him being born human. He had doubts and, iirc, made mistakes, even according to the bible.

Except that you don't just use it for whole hours. 12.01 is clearly post meridian, so it has to be PM if you wanna keep the meaning. With your example 12 am and 12.01 pm would either be one minute apart or you'd have to drop the whole meaning of am and pm, which would just make it an entirely arbitrary construct that's even more difficult to understand.

On the other hand, as a European I'm quite happy with 24h time keeping. This whole am-pm system is quite unnecessary.

Honestly kind of amazed that it translated to that, the word is "omspurtad", whereas circumcised is "omskuren". Fair number of letters or got wrong there

And i think you're a bit behind the times

The best time for this was 16 years ago. The second best time was right when you posted this.

Hence the "abiding".

Is this a real question?
