Back when my grandfather was alive I visited his farm in S Korea. The rooster that woke me up every morning became my nemesis. He caught me angrily scolding it. So, he had a local clean it and my grandmother pressure cooked it. It was so chewy, but satisfying. The man had a wonderful sense of humor.
I've lived it. It's all fun and games until the roo breaks a window because he is no longer fit to sleep outside, populated the neighborhood, k*lls his sons for being aggressive... but on the flip side here's my baby Muffin who would bring me mushrooms
I am 33 and on my days off i don't get out of bed before 12, and most ( not all ) morning people are a fucking pain in the ass acting as if they have a moral high ground.
Right? They're still growing, and you need rest for that. Except now they don't get to take naps like they did when they were kids. If sleeping in is the worst thing your teen is doing, let them sleep, they've earned it for good behavior at the very least.
No I lived in town but was being bussed to the middle of nowhere via a bus that first had to go to south nowhere pick up kids then north nowhere on opposite side of town to drop us off at school, and believe it or not I was not the first pickup in the morning.
Then let's give a lot of bitter adults power over them, demonize them constantly, ruin the planet they're inheriting, design the system so they can't win, jail them if they sneeze wrong, punish them if they get bullied, and complain that in our day and age we accomplished so much more with so much less until they finally snap!
Turns out it's unhealthy for teenagers to have school before 10am but apparently our archaic early bird society structure is more important than something as silly as the wellbeing of our young
I mean I assume it's another country and they have different styles of tastes, but I also grew up poor, so I'm not unaccustomed to the idea of a bed in the living room because there aren't enough rooms for everyone.
I've never raised chickens, but it's my understanding that they are NOT housetrained. Now, would you rather be *continually* cleaning rooster guano off of smooth tile, or out of carpet?
Not everybody can afford to travel. I can't even afford to go to the store, nevermind a different country. But I've seen rooms like this on the internet plenty of times.
Turning 50 in a few days, and I still rarely get out of bed before noon. Why do people want to treat that as some kind of moral failing? I don't get it.
Great, if that makes you happy. :) I'm not knocking people who like to get up early, just those who judge those of us who don't, just because we prefer a different schedule.
I mean, I usually go to bed between 4 and 5am, so that tracks. :) I've got a job, but I can set my own hours, so then I work when I feel most productive, which is usually between 5pm and 2am or so.
Different age groups require different amounts of sleep, and even then individuals in each group have different needs. Why care about the sleep patterns of others at all?
This person didn't say they cared. Just said they didn't understand. Im up at 7-8 myself at the very latest, no matter what, so I also don't understand. My teenage son sleeps till 10-11 and then I wake him up because we have stuff to do. If someone isn't me or my kids, I don't care where, when or how they sleep. I just don't understand it.
Because the world doesnt stop turning. I like to get brunch, go to an early movie, tend to my plants before it gets hot, I need to let my dog go potty, I have a list of chores/errands to get done. Oh, also, a job.
sorta like the world doesn't stop turning at the end of the day. It's nice to get up in the afternoon, and then start to be active as the sun goes down and enjoy the cool night air. But all these early risers are useless after 8:00 PM
? I get up at 6:20 every day, the sun is my alarm clock. I am up until 12ish each night. Wake up refreshed the next day. Even after a few Old Fashions and Manhattans. Just because we wake up early doesn't mean we go to bed early. We just enjoy having more of the actual day.
So, you want to get things done early. Cool. How is someone else living their life differently worse? Why is you getting brunch or going to an early movie "better" than eating a late lunch and catching a late-night movie? The world keeps turning at night, too, but that doesn't seem to interest you.
Yeah, do what you want to do when you want to do. I'm not judging that. I'm self-employed and set my own hours, which means I do a lot of my work between 17:00 and 02:00 and feel most productive then. If I have errands, I do them before I sit down to work, in the early afternoon after breakfast. It's the judging about it that annoys me.
Plenty of reasonable hours between noon and 02:00. :) I can always rearrange my work a little to make that work. I'm not the only one who keeps these kinds of hours. My wife does too, and several of our friends. And the ones that get up earlier still overlap for a good chunk of the day.
Ah, but... see, YOU need to accommodate others, who are living their life "correctly" by getting up early. By no means should they need to inconvenience themselves in any way, just because YOU're doing it wrong or whatever the fuck TexMexHex is talking about.
It's the age old battle between night people, who considerately try not to wake others, and the bastard "morning people" who seem to make as much noise as possible and somehow think people who go to bed at 4 am and get up at noon are lazy when they themselves go to bed at 10pm and get up at 7am.
I'm a night owl. My GF owns her own business and works from home. I work hybrid, but the days I'm out in the field require me to be up at like 5-530a. I make every attempt not to wake her up. She does not hesitate to wake up me up to ask me the most innane questions and it drives me nuts. I've never seen someone asleep and thought to wake them up outside of an emergency.
I had a roommate like that. I worked 3rd shift, getting home at 730am. He'd come in after his classes finished in the mornings, about 10:30-11, into MY ROOM, to play WoW. We had a come to Jesus moment, and I helped him get his own pc to play on. Still best friends with that asshole morning person.
That's disrespectful as fuck. Breaking that down, and assuming it's a truthful account, representative of a broader behavioural pattern, then she prioritizes the basic physiological needs of other human beings below gratifying her own curiosity.
Which is, if nothing else, a red flag.
If you explain your feelings on the matter, someone who sees other people as, well, people should at least understand, even if they don't change their behaviour. But if the notion confuses her, I'd be concerned.
She raised 2 disabled children by herself fot 20 years. In her world the adults in the house are on call 24/7 regardless of how minor. Breaking years of conditioning isn't an easy task. Even as adults her kid will still come knocking on our door at 1 am because they don't feel good, or they have a nose bleed etc.
I'm on year 10 of marriage and sleeping apart now and then has not killed our affection for each other. If I stay up too late, I will just couch crash vs risking waking my partner up.
But as a mum of 3, I sympathize with your partner. It does feel like we're on call 24/7 for our children but deprivation of sleep is a war crime.
I have to agree. I'm sure we are just getting a snapshot of the situation; I can't believe this happens all the time or surely the rage would come through at some point... But this is basically common decency and should be addressed, at least for me it would have to be.
Agreed. My family would use comments like "Get a real job!" Bitch, I make more than you, most nights! Or "It's hard being quiet, you just need to get used to it!"
