I bought a big clock with Roman Numberals for over my fireplace. I like it a lot.
As I stared at it idly the other night I noticed that “4” o’clock was displayed as IIII. Was that right? It didn’t look right to me so I goggled it. It was wrong. Do Roman Numberal clock manufacturers think we’re all stoopid? I watch the Superbowl.
Frankly, in all my IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII years on the planet, I’ve never had my intelligence so insulted; not even when I was IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII years old and myself and III others were unjustly accused of trying to steal a IIIIII pack of soda from the IIIIIII/IIIIIIIIIII.
I am writing to the Roman Emperor and telling him about the error. My advice will be to hire Eli Manning for $IIIIIIII an hour as their Kwality Kontrol Soupervisor. If he takes off his shoes and socks I think he can count to IIIIIIIIIIII.
