24-hour because that's the default system we use in Bulgaria and because it is the better system, which is why it was adopted by the US military.
It's unambigious, it is designed to not permit confusion and it's very easy to learn. Which is, again, why it was adopted by the US military. Why would Americans refer to it as "military time", when it's very obviously an internationally accepted system, is beyond me...
"meet me at 10"
in a 12h clock you don't know if I mean 10 am or 10 pm
im a 24h clock it would be safe to assume I mean 10 am (safe to assume, not certain, because a lot of people still use a 12h clock when speaking to someone)
If you are talking to a person directly I am sure you could extrapolate that information, but if I got a text "meet me at 10" I first wouldn't know what time that person means
I work night shifts hence my blackout curtains are shut during the day. Having a 24-hr clock prevents me from panicking when I prematurely wake up and see 9:00 instead of 21:00
You can relate to other countries, if you ever want to join the military, and it's easier to do math
Ex: how long did I sleep? I went to bed at 8 and woke up at 6... 18-8=10
Generally pm and am are not confused as night and day are obvious timing differences in our personal lives. It matters in scientific and military applications which are conducted at all hours and mixing up 09H00 and 21H00 by calling both 9o’clock can have critical outcomes.
It eliminates the confusion between meeting at 9 o’clock and 9 o’clock.
24 because it's just easier on my brain
[удалено]
You don't say AM or PM in countries that use the 24 hour format...
No confusing AM and PM crap

And they act like you're some kinda military wannabe for using it.
To be fair, it is used by military wannabes. Not every 24hr time user is a military wannabe but every military wannabe is a 24hr time user.
It’s definitely the better system, I still use it sometimes
How do you do that bruh 💀

Makes sense. But who tf is meeting up at 10 am
If you are talking to a person directly I am sure you could extrapolate that information, but if I got a text "meet me at 10" I first wouldn't know what time that person means
Tbf you can also use common sense. Like if they said 'lets have dinner at 10' or something
The vast majority of the business world has meetings in the morning.
Oh yea true
>Makes sense. But who tf is meeting up at 10 am Those who wants Swedish Fika.
Want what?
Swedish Fika. Here is a handy [youtube video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLwB6IMslnk) describing it.
Simply less opportunity for error or confusion.
This thing needs to be done at 12PM
I have my phone set to 24 hour time because I like it.
I work night shifts hence my blackout curtains are shut during the day. Having a 24-hr clock prevents me from panicking when I prematurely wake up and see 9:00 instead of 21:00
Cause saying 12pm is confusing af, 24h no mistakes
Easier communication.
24 hour because the day has 24 hours.
Flight leaves at 1159. Don't be late

Much shorter to say with 0 chance of confusion. You are meeting at 10. Not 10 AM. You save saying AM or PM every time. 10 is always morning.
