Is the colon in the car's clock supposed to repeatly blink???
 
This has always annoyed me, but the colon ":" in the car's clock repeatedly blinks.

Is it supposed to do that when it's simply keeping tracking of time? Literally never seen the colon blink on any other clock that I've ever owned.

This question will cost me countless seconds of sleeplessness.

You bought the wrong car.

Ultramaroon 07-29-2016 02:22 AM

Somewhere in here is a poop joke.

KR-S 07-29-2016 02:59 AM

It's totaled.

The colon blinks because there is just hours and minutes. Each blink is a second.

Take some mescaline. You'll feel differently about it.

Seriously, why the hell are you staring at the clock? I don't even remember where the clock is.

I'd be less concerned about the colon blinking and more concerned about how awesome driving the car is. But that's just me.

Be not afraid, this is family-friendly youtube, no "Two girls and a blinking colon" or anything like that.

Oh you misunderstood. I was afraid it WOULDN'T be two girls!
If anybody has their family hang out here they have a strange home life.

Tcoat 07-29-2016 10:45 AM

While on the subject, does this look right to you guys? Should I be worried?

When the power goes out next time, check your VCR. The entire clock blinks.

Mind Blown.

Once I was inside a giant diseased colon, took some pictures, have a look and see if anything looks like yours.

Definitely, it's normal in a semi truck, but not in a sporty coupe.


Did I just win the worst pun award for today?

FX86 07-29-2016 11:19 AM

how fast does it blink though?

if it starts blinking rapidly that means time is running out and once the clock runs out the game is over. there are no continues my friend..no insert coin.

hope you saved often

I feel like there's a little bit of that graphic blinking in the background of my eyes right now.
Summertime, can't help smoking weed.

Nothing to worry about, it only blinks when you look at it!
