That's an awkward one for me too.

I tend to say, however, that midnight is 12.00am (or 0.00am), and midday is 12.00pm.

Don't listen to him, he's lying. 12 pm is midnight, 12 am is noon. Think about it. PM = night. Therefore, it makes much more sense that 12 pm = midnight.

haha stormforge, your screwing with the poor guy.

think about it, it has to switch from pm to am at some point, right? 12oclock is like 0, which is the perfect time to restart. 12 am is when people are asleep, and 12am (the one it is when its dark out) is when its started as a brand new day.

Right. It changes at 12:01, not at 12:00 as some people would have you believe.

And, considering this is the same person that asked to make out with my hypothetical zombie, I don't think I'm the one screwing with someone else. See?

On the off chance that you are being serious, I'm sorry. 12 AM is midnight, 12 PM is noon, as has been stated before.

Well at the moment here it gets dark at about 8:30-9pm, and gets light at about 5:30. That means that its night time for 5 and a half hours in the AM and 3 and a half in the PM....

When the sun is DIRECTLY overhead, imagine a post going from the ground to the sun (a bright lollipop).

Like a guard POSTED at his duty station, the sun is posted at NOON.
