If I have a meeting at 3pm and it's "pushed forward" by an hour, then the new time of the meeting is 2pm. Not 4pm. 2pm. Baffles me how so many don't understand this.
@anon_opin Is this some sort of neuroatypical speak I'm too autistic to understand? Like, I am taking the term 'push forward' too literally? What's going on?
@anon_opin but never mind forward vs back, if you’re bringing something closer to you then you’re pulling it. Where’s the hot takes about that?
@anon_opin meetings can be either “brought forward” or “pushed back”. It’s your fault for using a weird, semantic bastard of the two phrasings.
@anon_opin however, if you move a clock forward from 3pm it would be at 4pm. Why don’t you just say “I’m moving the meeting to 2pm”.
@anon_opin Wait, now I'm confused, is it 3 or 2, or is it 4? Lololol!
@anon_opin I blame this on our quirky language. In most cases, moving forward would mean exactly what people usually think. But in this instance, forward is backward, English is funny like that. But it can be frustrating when people don't figure that part out
