Meaning of 時間も時間だし?

Question

I've seen this a couple of times and it seems to simply mean "it's about time, so ___", but why is that?

Answer 1

Nuance

"時間も時間だし"
"(今の)時間も(___の)時間だし"

Example

"時間も時間だし、家に帰ろう。"
"(今の)時間も(門限の)時間だし、家に帰ろう。"
"it's about time, so curfew. Let's go back home."
"Now Time is a time of curfew. Let's go back home." <- Nuance

I apologize if there are any mistakes in my English writing.
