Kids today will never know the awesomeness and terribleness of Swatch Internet Time. I remember when they gave a bunch of money to CNN and for a brief period the time listed on articles was Swatch Internet Time. Late 90s and early 2000s were strange.

  What’s wrong with UTC?

    That aside from the tz name, it looks like regular time in a regular timezone (where you or the other person recides), so it's equally easy to confuse. "Oh, you meant 11:00 UTC, not 11:00 Berlin time, ooops!".
