12:30PM means 30 minutes after 12-noon.
Anyone saying that and meaning the middle of the night is just wrong, and if that's a genuine thing people do it would drive me quite mad.
30 minutes after midnight is 12:30AM
Perfectly illustrates how it doesn't make sense.
I can get behind
Or
But
just doesn't make sense.
You start counting the hours to the next noon at midnight, duh. That's why it's ante-meridian, and the beginning of a new day. If you want to go around calling it 00:30, most people would understand, even in America.
i would like to suggest, instead of 1230pm and 1230am we do 1230m and 1230n. one for midnight and one for noon. or one for night and one for munchies. i forget.
Did you mix up the first and third place? Because if 12:00 is "m", it makes more sense for 12:30am to be night.
As I said, it always fucks me up. The AM/PM indicator wraps at a different hour than the hours. Aaargh!
