The greater irony is that why was I not looking at my watch for the time????  :Laughing_on_floor:

For me, irony is not looking at my watch for the time, but looking at the bottom right of my PC monitor.  :HammerHead:

I thought this thread is about the word irony.
If I had in any way hurt your feelings in my earlier post, then I apologised for that.
I do not meant to "make war" or "step on people's shoe" in this forum. Peace to all.

Have a Good week ahead.

Oh! it was a Joke.
Don't be sorry. It's just that I have no humour sense. Just serious by nature.

in the Time Offset field, enter "1"
