After hours of doom-scrolling on your phone, eating 6 melatonin gummies, and listening to white noise box fans (8 hour loops), you've finally reached the point where you're feeling tired enough to sleep. You look down at your phone to set your alarm for work tomorrow, with pleasant dreams already downloading in your mind, and you see that your alarm is set for 2 hours and 17 minutes from now. Wait what happened? Insomnia strikes again! The adrenaline spike from seeing what time it is perks you up just enough so that you're not tired anymore. Terrific. It's a good thing your coworkers know that you're a chronic insomniac addicted to coffee who looks like they got hit with a tractor every morning, so this is nothing new. Frankly, at this point, you might as well look at a few more memes to chill out again.
These are the memes of so many midnight oil burners and night owls who came before us, these are their stories.
