Yes, without this building, time stops...

I don't think my jaw has ever hit the ground before after something I've overheard, that is until last night. Walking to the port authority ready to hop on my bus and head home, I see a young couple. The couple (around 22-24 years old) were spotted outside the New York Times building on the 41st & 8th side and they had the following exchange of words:

guy: Oh look the New York Times building lets stop real quick

girl (very confused): ok...? Is this where all the city's clocks are controlled?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? I almost wanted to stop and wait for the guys response but alas I was far too shocked and only minutes from catching the bus I need to get on. So I continued onward to the port authority but not without mulling over that statement. I hate to say it but it's girls like that who bring the "dumb blonde" phrase to an entirely new level.
