Time

A chart listing Age and How I told time
0-5: Am I hungry and/or tired?
6-12: Checking a clock
Teens: Checking my watch
20s: Checking my computer
30s: Checking my phone
40+: Am I hungry and/or tired? — Special rule for 2020-21: Time is a meaningless construct. We all float in the endless void of existence. Also I’m always hungry and tired.

Nothing

A: What are you doing today?
B (lounging): Nothing.
A: Nothing?

B: Get your own nothing. This one's taken. — It’s a nothing kind of day.
