The Legend of Going To Bed At a Reasonable Hour

Legends have a possibility of being real. This is more like a myth

But Mythbuster have one of 3 result on every test: Confirmed, Plausible, and Busted, so myth can still be real.

The legend of "fuck I can't find the remaining shrines without resorting to an internet guide, oh well I'm too bored to 100% this game, lets just start TOTK now"

Or maybe the legend of "Maybe I shouldn't have gotten a switch, I didn't know I could've just pirated nintendo games on a SteamDeck"

Warning!
I enjoyed TOTK way more than BOTK.
- That's good to know. I tried BOTW for a while, but didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to. Maybe I'll just skip ahead to TOTK
Can we still pirate those though? I thought those mofos recently shut down the last of the working emulators...
- Idk, never tried because I just assumed it was impossible and already bought legit copies of the games I wanted to play, but recently doing some searching and there are videos of people running Zelda games on SteamDeck so I was kinda sad to find out I probably should've tried doing the piracy route first.
  Maybe if I find time, I'll try pirating anyways for shits and giggles. But can't transfer the save from my legit copies tho (because nintendo doesn't seem allow saves to be exportable, its either cloud sync or stored on the local device), so I probably would just have to finish the game on the switch.
  Btw, I thought the switch allows exporting saves so I could continue the game later on other platforms, but nope. Its cloud backup only and that is a fucking monthly subscription (they delete your saves 180 days after your "nintendo online" subscription expires)
  So... yeah.... feels like I made a mistake. Never gonna get another nintendo (the only reason I did was because I haven't really played nintendo games since early childhood like nearly 2 decades ago.)

Apparently about 40% of adults get insufficient sleep, if the CDC is to be trusted. That's pretty bad.

I started setting an alarm for myself to go to bed. Now I have better sleep habits. I used to stay up too late, but then I'd be in a brain fog the next day and it sucked. An extra hour of video game isn't worth the following day and its video games sucking.

Persistent and extreme sleep deprivation is literally a form of torture.

Gee I wonder why so many Americans act literally insane so often.

🎶Yo, what can I say? It's just a day in my life.

I'm up early in the morning, in bed early at night.

To be productive at work, I gotta be well rested.

Yeah, motherfucker, you heard what I just said.🎶

Everyday Normal Guy by Jon Lajoie
- Close! But those lines are from the second one: Everyday Normal Guy 2
  Anecdote about how this song is still fresh in my mind: I went to Saint Martin last winter. There are hiking trails on a private property called Loterie Farm, leading to Pic Paradis, the highest point of the island. They also have pool parties with loud music, kids playgrounds and stuff like that, but I went for the hike. Depending on your angle on the hill, you can clearly hear the music at the bottom. So there I was, hiking in a tropical forest, when all of a sudden I hear this remix of Everyday Normal Guy 2. I had forgotten this song for years and now my brain associates this specific remix with this moment.

Ahh…it‘s almost 10 in the morning right now and I spent the entire night playing Zelda ToTK. I suppose I‘m too tired to enjoy the irony in this meme. Holidays yeah!

I have to be up in 3 hours 😮‍💨

This was made and posted by people under 30 years old. After that it becomes the opposite.

I'm mid 30s and still struggle to go to bed on time, to my detriment everyday.
I'm 30 and struggle to go to bed before midnight or 1 AM. Not a good thing when I start work at 6 AM.

And what happens next when one fails this particular test of strength, hypothetically speaking you understand?

I have two alarm clocks set up. One on mu bedside table to wake up, and one in my home office to go to bed.

An here I am in bed at 8:30pm I feel like UFO around most people The only disadvantage of being like this is getting EXTREME fatigue staying up late like at 11pm you are already dead. Don't get me started with night flights

I did this last night!

But I feel so guilty to my favourite 4-hour retrospective youtuber....

I currently have family in town and am working an 8 hour night shift on 2 hours of sleep, missing those 2 extra hours is really talking it's toll.
