Is the colon in the car's clock supposed to repeatly blink??? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

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.

Somewhere in here is a poop joke.

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.

The ":" blinks? OMG. I think I should change my avatar to this one ...

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

Beware. Blinking colons are everywhere.

I was a tad afraid of where those links would lead!
