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!
Who decided that only people who are up and out before 10:30 AM deserve fresh biscuits? This world is fucked.
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!
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 a night person and my main job only has core hours in the afternoon. I'm also a farmer and if I don't wake up and work in the morning, the heat is deadly in summer (our humidity is frequently 80+%). I'm now oppressed by the climate as well, hehehe.
Sunrise and sunset in eastern Japan are also super early, so I'm not getting much of anything done between the end of core time and sunset even on our longest days.
my main job
I’m also a farmer
Never has Japan felt so foreign to me as while reading this comment. Being a farmer (as a job, not just gardening as a hobby) and having another career at the same time? What is this sorcery?
I have a cousin who is a farmer in the US and also has to have a second job. He probably has millions invested in machinery, but last time I talked to him about it he said for the cost of the equipment to really make sense he needs more land to farm. Right now he has unused capacity.
Has he looked into switching over to growing Starfruit or Ancient Fruit? Wines and jams can also increase income.
For the curious, this is from the dropout.tv show SmartyPants where comedians present lectures and it's amazing
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'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.
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.
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
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.
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).
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.
Parties and drunk kids happen all year around.
I just chose the obvious example.
I believe this is a screenshot from "Smarty-pants" and I can strongly recommend the episode "God's Mistakes: How I Would Make Our Bodies Better"
Fuck yeah I am, now get out of bed, we’re gonna be on the trail by dawn
Somehow in my house I wind up being the morning person AND the night owl.
That's called insomnia.
Time for a Revolution
Too early, let's sleep in and start the revolution at 10 a.m.
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.
Please share this knowledge with everyone (irl too), even for the oppressed class this might be a PSA!
"They asked me how well I understood class consciousness. I said I was a member of the conscious class. They said welcome aboard."
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?
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.
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.
