A wrong clock can show the passage of time and if you know how far it’s off it just requires mental math. A stopped clock merely tells you when it stopped. Now a clock that advances at the wrong speed, that’s useless and a hindrance to you knowing what time it is
Comment on A broken clock is right twice a day, but a wrong clock is just wrong.

Me for months when the oven clock is off by an hour because of daylight savings time.

I set the clock in the kitchen a little fast because my partner is chronically late, and this way he leaves on time for work.
