People who give you the exact time instead of vague phrasing are amazing

This is a relatable meme about the frustration of receiving vague, overly complicated time descriptions when asking someone for the time. The top text sets up the scenario: when you ask a stranger for the time, and they give you the exact numerical time instead of hard-to-interpret phrasing like 'quarter to nine' or 'fifteen past 9' that requires the listener to do quick math. Below the text is a screenshot of Bran Stark from Game of Thrones, with the caption 'You are a good man. Thank you', used to express exaggerated gratitude for the small, helpful act of giving the exact time directly.
