I wake up at 8 everyday even on weekend with a headache and a sore body. I don’t want to wake up at 8, but I have the body of a 80 years old.
Am I a morning person?
Me sneaking into the sleeping room to not wake up my wife who is already sleeping for 3 hours.
vs
My wife yelling “get out of the bed, it’s already 9am!” in the morning.
Morning people are just night people who now have children
I feel this with all my being and I hate it.
I’m a turd in the morning. Nothing good is done.
I wanna go to bed at 1am and wake up at 9, but now I can’t.
Please share this knowledge with everyone (irl too), even for the oppressed class this might be a PSA!
💯
Fuck yeah I am, now get out of bed, we’re gonna be on the trail by dawn
“We ride at dawn bitches!”
I call that bullshit until owls give up the monopoly on every fucking fun event/gathering you can attend. Meeting with friends? Yeah let’s do this in the fucking night!! Concert or a party? God damn midnight would be sufficient. What? You want to have a fun time at reasonable time of fucking day? Boo opressor go to hell
We could organize stuff earlier… If we weren’t either in work or sleeping after a full week of getting up in the morning to “be productive members of society” !
Barely relevant side note, I wanted to go to a concert in Poland, Powerwolf, Hammerfall and Wind Rose are playing in Kraków, but it’s on Monday? Who the hell makes a concert on Monday?!? God-damn it.
That’s because nigh owls are counter culture.
Only when I can have 24/7 Taco Bell again. I dont want Nacho Fries at 4 in the afternoon I want them at 3 am on a Wednesday.
Fuck that. Bring back 24/7 Walmart.
Walmart was actually sufferable at 3am.
Monopoly my ass. You morning people are just too lame to organize things that don’t fucking suck.
Every once in a while someone forces me awake on a weekend morning, and I’m appalled by how eventless and boring it is until like noon anyway.
Ha, come hang with me in the summer on a Saturday. We’ll start climbing a 14,000 foot mountain (thats like 4600 meters for my EU friends) at 5/6am with intent on reaching the peak before 12. Why 12? Because the afternoon thunderstorms are rolling in and lets just say lightning is electrifying at 14000…. Well, at any height really.
Boring, never.
You’ve cured my insomnia. Thanks for the snooze.
(I’m just horsing around, please don’t hate me, I love you)
You’re saying that and yet the farmers market closes at 12pm. That shit is my fun, and yet I’m too sleepy to appreciate it
We’re winning the war, you can see here one of the oppressors is demoralized by our brutal tactics
Morning people hit KPIs, I bet you can’t even fucking measure fun.

What the fuck, chronobiology sounds badass how is this a real field
For a hot moment I though it said chernobiology … and when I actually read it I was still interested!
Isnt that what the scientists in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. do when they study the animals of the zone.
Here’s a podcast if you’re interested:

Youtube Um Actually for nerdy game show. https://www.youtube.com/@umactually that doesn’t require subscription.
I hope they release more Smartypants soon. “When is the happiest birthday?” and “No thank you the ocean” are fucking incredible, but honestly it’s all gold.
The happiest birthday makes me upset.
Because his point is so stupid, but I can’t argue at all.
His choice would be a legendary birthday. Your friends would know your birthday before they knew their parents’ birthdates.
Who decided that only people who are up and out before 10:30 AM deserve fresh biscuits? This world is fucked.
Y’all need some Bojangles! Fresh biscuits all day long.
Recently moved back to the south and am happy to have Bojangles back. But nothing tops a Hardee’s biscuit for me.
We just have to invent a new meal. Can’t have breakfast after 10:30? Fine, you can’t have midnight meal before 10:30!
We already invented brunch. It’s too bad that it was such a good idea that it got overrun by hipster wankers.
Make it start at midnight. More exclusive

Night owls of the world rise up! But only after midday, of course!
The problem is, when they start with construction noises at 8am, this is all fine and legal, but if I come back at them with vacuuming at 11pm, I’ll just get a fine.
It’s ok, I run my drier at night. It’s enough to be annoying and not enough for anyone to call the police.
We were trusted to protect the village from the terrors in the night for thousands of years! Now we’re cast aside as pariahs, weird beings that shouldn’t be in the group just because we’re different. Until we regain the respect we deserve, the day walkers shall receive none of our treasures!
Just keep it down
You keep it down! Don’t you dare fucking mow your lawn before 1pm.
Is 1pm an exaggeration or am I unintentionally rude even though I’m trying to be respectful? I don’t do anything to make noise like mowing, running my chainsaw, etc until after 11am. I used to start up late and sleep in until I had kids (wish I still could) so even though I’m up by at least 6am I find other stuff to do until at least 11 . Nobody has complained but I don’t think I would have complained myself.
Can you be my neighbour? The new ones think 8am is the perfect time to stand outside my window and scream at each other. I’ve just gotten to sleep. Noise at 11 (even a lawnmower outside my room) I could sleep through, but that first two hours of sleep I struggle to stay asleep.
1pm is starting the hot part of the day. Anytime after 9am is ok.
“They asked me how well I understood class consciousness. I said I was a member of the conscious class. They said welcome aboard.”
Recently my therapist:
Look at you! You used to work night shifts and now you’re working at 5 am!
Me:
Yes, nothing changed. I just don’t want to work near people. So I do what I can to minimize that.
Mate I love starting work at 6 AM. Being able to finish work before the early afternoon and having both the post-lunch rush over, pre-rush-hour on the highways, and almost all establishments empty is such a blessing. It’s a major life change from working third shift.
The only good thing about third shift was being drunk at 8am convincing yourself it’s normal because 8am is your night time.
As a morning person, I don’t want more people waking up early, it’s my peaceful time and I want to keep it that way.
I wish night owls respected my sleep time during holidays instead of making explosions at night cause of reasons (fireworks).
Moving the fireworks to when the sun is high in the sky will be a hard sell, no one can see them and everyone will complain, daysider and nightsider.
Tell the markets to stay open past noon or the shopping centres to stay open later than five. Late night shopping where I live is six pm. Weekend shopping? Four pm, unless the shop randomly decides to close at two. I’ve lost count how often I have rocked up to a store, and hour before closing, to find out they closed early so they could go enjoy the sun.
Seriously, I hate that if I keep to my normal sleep schedule (and this avoids insomnia and being sick all the time), I have a two hour window on most days to get things done. That two hours is from the moment I wake until shops close, not including the normal wake up stuff like showering, or eating. It also doesn’t include travel time, and I live in a sprawl where everything is a half hour away. I’d love to support the farmers markets, or browse the local markets and fairs. They are closing when I arrive, and I’ve already sacrificed sleep to try and attend.
If only you knew the joy of walking around the city at night. Not a damn soul. (Unless it’s the weekend ofc, then the streets are full and everyone is smashed)
Oh no, you have to be inconvenienced on three holidays a year! Night owls have to drag themselves out of bed every day because some dickheads decided that every job has to start at 8 AM.
Swing and graveyard shifts exist.
Parties and drunk kids happen all year around.
I just chose the obvious example.
then will the morning traffic quit making noise at 8 AM?
Drag suggests solving the problem by improving the train lines. Electric trains are quieter than cars. If everyone takes the train to work, there will be less car noise.
Right? This person is so fucking entitled. How dare people enjoy a few nights a year!
Synthesis: everyone should have a well constructed residence with ample sound damp
ening where late night fireworks and early morning traffic noise wouldn’t be a problem. Capitalist real estate developers minimizing their costs and maximizing their profits have us fighting each other when they’re the real problem.e; I was actually thinking microphones would pick up and retransmit sounds after running it through some reverb and flanging to get a cozy underwater effect, but damping external sounds makes a lot more sense
Dampening means making something damp (wet). The word you’re probably looking for is “damping.”
Ah, you’re totally right,thank you, I’d been using those interchangeably without thinking about it much
That edit deserves extra kudos
Drag doesn’t think we need to build better insulation in order to stop traffic noise. All we need to do is ban explosion powered cars. However, we should install better insulation anyway to save electricity and reduce carbon use even further.
Unfortunately most noise from cars at speeds above 30km/h is due to tires hitting the road surface, not engines.
That’s why we also need speed limits of 30km/h in residential and commercial areas.
That doesn’t stop anyone in the states
That’s more bearable than the fuckers with loud exhaust.
All of this can be true
That only helps quiet down cars below 30 km/h. Above that speed, most noise is either rolling noise or wind noise.
There’s still traffic that late?
Drag read that burning heavy metals in the atmosphere is bad for public health and wildlife. Drag is ashamed drag didn’t realise it from common sense and instead had to have it explained to drag. Drag is now enlightened that fireworks are bad.
Let’s do drone shows instead.
Drone shows for the win!
