That is an impressive fuck*ng timepiece.

I have dark memories of trying to make sense of a trigonometric clock in math class.  Sure, the equations are in the right place to correspond to the usual numbers, but seeing pi on a clock can really throw you off.

I think my favourite part of this strip is that the clock says "NO."  Showbiz knows that he's not doing something right with regard to telling time, and his humiliation manifests itself on the clock's face.

Another possibility is that "NO." stands for "Number," which would also make sense, but wouldn't be as funny.  I prefer to think of it as a physical declaration of Showbiz's clock-reading ignorance.
