u/khrossjointz 1d ago

I mean, I always knew I was a pig, I just didn't know I slept like one too

u/a_normal_account 1d ago

I don’t know about you guys but my country literally has a comparison “you sleep as much as a pig do” when you are talking about someone who sleeps a lot

u/Sea_Use2428 1d ago

Interesting! Where are you from if I may ask? In Germany we say sleeping like a groundhog.

It’s Vietnam! You can hear the sentence from probably every parent here 😂

The “8 hours a night” sleep study was conducted on MEN. Women need 10 hours on average because we replenish hormones in our sleep (whereas men don’t need it as much because they get some from their balls during the day).

☺️ I’m just on here so I don’t go on an adhd- fueled “fun fact” rant at my sweet husband 24/7!

Had to check your profile and make sure you weren't my wife. She made a similar confession recently.

I sleep 10 hours at night and you wouldn’t believe how shocked literally every single person is when I tell them that. Makes me feel awful but then I sleep for 10 hours and forget about them.

I'm an owl. AKA: A depressed human. 😬

u/Xzentrixx86 1d ago

If you're not depressed today, then you aren't paying attention to what's going on

TIL I'm a cow

u/ButterscotchButtons 1d ago

No wonder my husband always calls me a cow

u/Pielacine 1d ago

No you're a dog

u/skat0r 1d ago

Hello fellow cow

u/Tackit286 1d ago

I am Ant, on a good night 🫠

u/otc108 1d ago

Same here. When I’m not traveling for work, it’s 10 hours. When traveling: 6-7. 😞

u/HangryWolf 1d ago

TIL I am elephant. That's not a brag, I have a horrible sleep and work habit.

u/CoelhoCaxador 1d ago

Lucky you... I learned I'm an ant

u/MrPezza 1d ago

Ant... If I'm lucky

u/colecast 5m ago

I’ve heard “looks like a duck” and “sounds like a duck”, guess I sleep like a duck.

u/Mission_Fart9750 1d ago

I'm going on being up for 22 hours on less than 4 hours of sleep. I have been trying to sleep for the last 2 hours.

u/owa00 1d ago

Since you're up...could you reply to that email chain I added you to? Ok, thanks!

Who’re you, Cory Booker? I’m trying to joke ;) I’ve been up almost as long, for unpleasant reasons. It’s fuggin brutal, on mind and body. Wishing you all the best xo

u/askthepoolboy 1d ago

“Who’re you” broke my brain. I’ve never seen it written like that, but it makes sense.

u/Straight-Treacle-630 1d ago

I do use some weird contractions. I guess bc I went to a British AF school in Naples, Italy…as a US military brat, so I also tend to use military time. Any way you clock it, I’m over sleeping like a shark ;)

u/mish20011 1d ago

its because you are not moving away from your phone before bed and thus became a habit

u/ZealousidealEntry870 1d ago

Maybe work on that screen time addiction if you want better sleep.

u/Acrobatic-Ad-9189 1d ago

Water Bear sleeps 262800 hours per day

u/Spanky-Gomez 1d ago

Most I’ve had is like 6 straight in the last 35 years. Usually it’s maybe 4 before I got to piss or just wake up randomly.

u/SidTheSloth97 1d ago

Ikr I sleep for at least 10 hours

u/abedalhadi777 1d ago

I'm a donkey at this point

u/Sorenduscai 1d ago

So jealous of the water bears ..

u/RemoteSpeed8771 1d ago

I thought that last one was going to be a picture of me. I guess the water pig has a close enough resemblance. 🤷🏻‍♀️😅
