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.

[-] Randelung@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago

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!

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

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 51 points 1 month ago

We're winning the war, you can see here one of the oppressors is demoralized by our brutal tactics

[-] aesthelete@lemmy.world 33 points 1 month ago

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.

[-] Omodi@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

That's because nigh owls are counter culture.

[-] Katzastrophe@feddit.org 15 points 1 month ago

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

[-] almost1337@lemm.ee 11 points 4 weeks ago

Parties are optional. Work is not.

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.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago

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?

[-] LesserAbe@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

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.

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

Has he looked into switching over to growing Starfruit or Ancient Fruit? Wines and jams can also increase income.

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).

[-] desktop_user 34 points 1 month ago

then will the morning traffic quit making noise at 8 AM?

[-] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 14 points 1 month ago

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.

[-] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Right? This person is so fucking entitled. How dare people enjoy a few nights a year!

[-] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Synthesis: everyone should have a well constructed residence with ample sound damp~~en~~ing 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

[-] Bezier@suppo.fi 12 points 1 month ago

Dampening means making something damp (wet). The word you're probably looking for is "damping."

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.

[-] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 month ago

Parties and drunk kids happen all year around.

I just chose the obvious example.

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.

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"

Somehow in my house I wind up being the morning person AND the night owl.

That's called insomnia.

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.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 18 points 1 month ago

Please share this knowledge with everyone (irl too), even for the oppressed class this might be a PSA!

Morning people are just night people who now have children

[-] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 month ago

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 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?

load more comments (2 replies)

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.
