A broken clock is right twice a day, but a running clock is probably never right.
At this point you get into a philosophical discussion about what "right" really means
Two wrong donβt make a right, but three left turns do.
Or if the "present" actually exists

Man, that song hits me right in the feels. Every time.
I'm really picky when it comes to clocks. They need to be Β±1 minute. If they aren't it really starts to bother me.
A broken clock may occasionally be right but it's regularly useless
time dilation ftw!
If you're lucky, a clock that's slightly too fast or too slow will be right once
