2 minutes of my life I'm not getting back - dammit

co-worker: hey, do you know that time the staff meeting is today?

me: it's at nine

co-worker (looking at me as though i've just proposed doing a pole dance on the table at aforementioned staff meeting): nine... o'clock?

me: no, nine hippopotamus

is there a new way that we measure time now? is o'clock no longer implied? wtf?
