I fundamentally disagree (on a social level). Social dance mfers don’t even start until 9:30PM, most people rock up at 10:30PM
This some oppressive shit if you want to be up at 7 if that’s your body clock.
I want to sleep hombre.
I want to be up with the sun friend.
Where are my 6PM socials. Hurt.
People see staying up late as a moral failing and feel that it’s their job to guilt trip anyone who sleeps in as lazy and wasting the day away.
People see morning people as industrious and morally superior and don’t criticize them for their preferred sleeping habits. At worst they get some ribbing for not being able to stay away for new years, but it’s seen as understandable and a more pious lifestyle.
So… Yeah. Morning people wingeing in the comments here can fight me, I’ll meet you at 10 o. Clock tonight outside.
Yep morning people oppression probably stunted my growth. Starting classes in high school at 8:15 was horrendous, I basically spend the entire day as a zombie. Didn’t matter if I slept on a regular time schedule I always felt tired.
That’s true for most teenagers, what time you get up is as dependent on age as anything.
I am now 58 years old and something happened and I wake up at 6 in the morning every day for 6 months, if I have to get up or not. I was never a morning person, but now I am and I have no explanation for it. I like it, but I try to not bother others with it.
That is what happens to old people, I guess.
Yeah there’s a reason retirement homes serve breakfast at like 5AM and dinner by like 5PM. As you get older, your circadian rhythm tends to drift more towards waking and sleeping early.
Me sneaking into the sleeping room to not wake up my wife who has already been sleeping for 3 hours.
vs
My wife yelling “get out of the bed, it’s already 9am!” in the morning.
I’m both you and your wife. I sneak into the sleeping room and I yell that it’s time to get up.
Night owls of the world rise up! But only after midday, of course!
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.
10am, but only if using a push mower.
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.
Depends on the country. Mine doesn’t have laws about that, other than “disturbing the peace”. You can disturb the peace during the day too by revving an obnoxious motorcycle for instance. But no hours are codified as “night time” or “day time”. Only place it appears is blocks of flats, where the community can set it, when it’s binding. Also they can set it to be during any time they want it, so if a night owl sets it it could get weird :d
The darkness rises!
Everything is infinitly better at night.
Who decided that only people who are up and out before 10:30 AM deserve fresh biscuits? This world is fucked.
Economics? If there was a sufficiently large post 10:30 fresh biscuit market, I’m sure there would be providers in no time.
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!
Make it start at midnight. More exclusive
We already invented brunch. It’s too bad that it was such a good idea that it got overrun by hipster wankers.
Second breakfast calls for aid!
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.
World is a fuck
130,000,000,000,000 dead Pillsbury doughboys
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
Parties are optional. Work is not.
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.
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.
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.
Sounds terrible. Where I live, the marine layer doesn’t even recede until afternoon anyway. The sun basically doesn’t get up until twelve. Why do I have to be?
You’ve cured my insomnia. Thanks for the snooze.
(I’m just horsing around, please don’t hate me, I love you)
Hiking before sunup is dangerous, so be sure to only do it when the dangers from late hiking grow to be larger or if there is a significant prize to be gained from finishing early (pizza)
Check out the sunrise times in the summer. 5am, we’re seeing dawn breaking. I’m not hiking in the dark, nor on a trail I don’t know. Also, flashlights help for those 20 min.
Yup, it is very often that the risk trade-off favours starting early. There’s a term alpine start for a reason. Whether it’s impending weather later in the day, or snow conditions will warm increasing avalanche risk, or the objective is just so long you want to make sure you’re back down on the easy bit. Had the latter last month. Did a traverse is seven summits and even with the 6am start it was dark by the time we got down from the ridge and back into the valley. Trail ran our way out by headlamps, singing dumb songs to not spook any grizzlies. Such a good outing!
I’ve actually seen more parties start in the afternoon or just after dinner here. I’m not even a morning person per se but I also don’t want to be home at 8am. I applaud it.
That’s because nigh owls are counter culture.
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
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.
Oh yeah because who wouldn’t love a party at 530 am like the morning people would like
As a shitty musician and nonprofit fundraiser those events are my livelihood. I’m going to take advantage of my hootiness.
I’m not a morning person, but my dog is which forces me to be awake between 6 and 7 am every day. I just have to roll with it and start my day cause fuck it I’m up.
Interestingly, I became a morning person after a couple of years of being gently woken up by my cats around 7am, not with loud meowing. Now, I just enjoy waking up at that time every day, even on weekends.
Meanwhile my cat doesn’t make a peep till he hears me wake up (scrolling youtube or something), then starts screaming like his life depended on it. Love being able to sleep in, no idea how / why he learned to do that. I just assume he is a total bro, like at everything else he does.
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?
That’s just when your rhythm wakes you. Put up some blackouts (and put in some high quality earplugs), go to bed later, and it’d be 11 easy enough.
Not if you live with chronic pain it won’t. He clearly does, and a lot of people do for a multitude of reasons.

Fuck yeah I am, now get out of bed, we’re gonna be on the trail by dawn
“We ride at dawn bitches!”
Gentlemen to bed, for we rise at 8:30 for 9!
For the curious, this is from the dropout.tv show SmartyPants where comedians present lectures and it’s amazing
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.

Figures that I don’t like to go to bed late, I just like to be up the hours after midnight. Oh how the tables have turned.
Please share this knowledge with everyone (irl too), even for the oppressed class this might be a PSA!
