Why you keep seeing 252

  • On a 12-hour display it shows at 2:52 a.m. and again at 2:52 p.m. From 2:52 it is 11 minutes to the next mirror hour, 03:03.
  • Written 25/2 (day-first, as in most of the world), it is February 25, day 56 of a common year; in 2026 it falls on a Wednesday. US births on that date rank 238th of 366 days (SSA, 2000–2014) — see February 25 birthdays.
  • The rest is the frequency illusion, explained on the main page.
