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!
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.
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.
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

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
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)
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?
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.
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.
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 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”
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.
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).
then will the morning traffic quit making noise at 8 AM?
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
That edit deserves extra kudos
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.
Swing and graveyard shifts exist.
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)
Somehow in my house I wind up being the morning person AND the night owl.
If you stay up late enough you can be both
And you can get it all over with much sooner since you’ll probably die of heart disease at 45.

Too early, let’s sleep in and start the revolution at 10 a.m.

sunrisedusk!Diabel: Alright, looks like everyone’s grouped up. Get plenty of rest tonight, people! We leave at noon!
Player 2: *Groans* Noon?
Player 3: That’s so early!
Diabel: *Sighs* Alright. What about 1 o’clock?
Player 8: 1? Dude, come on!
Diabel: *Groans* God, fine! We leave at the crack of… 2:30, I guess. Lazy butts…
Player 4: Christ, I’m gonna have to set my alarm.
~Sword Art Online Abridged, episode 2
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.
“They asked me how well I understood class consciousness. I said I was a member of the conscious class. They said welcome aboard.”
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.
But den vatt do we do both de children of de night?
