anyone else set timers to weird numbers?
Yes. I have my alarm at exactly 6:18 - not one minute later or earlier.
there are dozens of us!
Some time numbers just feel better. :35, :28 good. :24, :17, bad. I can’t explain it. It’s like a color or a sound.

for me that is the exact other way around
You monster.
Depends what I’m timing and what you consider weird.
Absolutely, as a slight counter to my ADHD and laziness. I find it harder to say “let me sleep fifteen more minutes” when the timer or alarm isn’t a round number.
That’s textbook psychopathy.
I try to set it to seldom used numbers. It’s part of my fight to remain human in a conforming world.

Good. You mustn’t use up all the good numbers. The strange numbers will feel left out.
0 is very overrated
I set most of my timers using Siri and avoid 30, 40, 50, and 60 exactly because I can’t seem to emphasize “TY”in a way to distinguish it from “TEEN”. My wife needs to me to clarify those too, so it’s definitely a me problem, not a Siri problem. I instead go over or under a minute or two, depending on the task.
Yeah, i just pull the dial and let it settle where it settles. On my alarm clock my alarm will not go off if I set it to specific times like 7:30 so I usually do weird times in an attempt to get around that.
I set the minutes of my alarm clocks always on odd numbers
