Do things that are supposed to be counting all the time (clocks, odometers) seem to change when you look..?

Question

Alright, I'm not superstitious, but I've looked down at my odometer and have seen a digit JUMP from 8-9 or 9-0 rather than roll up slowly. Also, I've looked up at a clock and seen the minute hand move over one minute in a single jump.

This is not something I look for or expect and it's a surprise every time it happens (it's happened maybe 8-10 times in my life). Has anyone else ever experienced this?

Answer 1

odometer jumping=driving wayyyyyy too fast.
clocks moving more than one minute=lsd

also, another cause for this could be short moments of blackout. its actually very common. people will be doing something and blank for a second and the whole world changed, yet they never noticed. you might want to be checked out. also, memory lapses can happen to. works in the same way. i would recommend seeing a doctor to make sure its not a medical condition causing your time lapses

Answer 2

The clock is continuously guffawing at me! (so does my odometer!) I refuse to seem at them any more effective! lol you comprehend, some say that element does no longer exist. not in any respect heard that about mileage nonetheless.

Answer 3

Law of averages, for the number of times you look at a clock or odometer in your life I would expect a large number of these experiences.

Answer 4

Either:

1) You're eyes are playing tricks on you. Don't take this literally and accuse your eyes of "funny business." I mean, things are appearing some way to you that know shouldn't really be happening.

-or-

2) You have faulty equipment.

Answer 5

happens all the time. lot more than 8 or 10 times too.

Answer 6

Apparently you have looked at just the precise moment of change.. Congrats, this is not something most people get to experience.

Answer 7

Yes but never gave it any thought as to how you are. Guess you have opened up a good question to ponder on.
