Society is bias towards morning people

I have come to to the conclusion recently that we night people are getting ripped off by the system. Morning people can choose what time they go to bed, they get sleepy at night so it is time for them to go to bed. Us night people on the other hand are wide awake at [...]

Just Funny

Maybe I’m wierd, and yes I believe this is old but I saw it for the first time today and it cracked me up.

Basically I think he could tell that I hadn’t opened the [...]
