    Morning people, in my experience at least, firmly believe that night people are just morning people with insufficient self-discipline.

      What’s wild is that you’ll see them get a night job, or have to stay up late on vacation a few times and they’ll be 100/10 miserable af. Never adapt to it, and still keep believing iTs aLl SeLf DiScIpLInE

        Well what it ‘proves’ to them is that mankind is supposed to follow the exact same routine that works for them. My Dad was forever saying “Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” Died when he was 45.

          To quote Yakko Warner:

          Early to rise and early to bed makes a man healthy, but socially dead

      Lmao, 100%. I swear most folks I know believe being a night owl is simply a lack of self control, or they have a screw loose

        sure it’s a lack of self control, if i had better self control i could force myself to go to bed at 21:00 and lie there for 2 hours until i fall asleep out of tortured boredom, and then i could force myself out of bed at 07:00 despite my limbs feeling like lead and every movement bringing me abject misery and pain!

      I think I had never seen this much upvoted post on kbin. You speak the truth, brother/sister/sibling!
