Misery Olympics, or Competitive Suffering.

No matter how bad you have it, someone else has to tell you they have it worse.

8h sleep

2h in morning before work to cuddle cat, eat, do whatever, cuddle cat some more.

10h at work/going to/from work and getting ready for work. I cycle to work so this also covers plenty of exercise.

4h in the evening before bed, usually dinner is done within an hour and during that time I can do a few other things as well.

I do most of my shopping in my work lunch breaks, serious question actually wtf can I do with an hour each day lunch break? Its so long and boring, not like I need to go shopping daily. Sometimes walk in the park but its fairly small and no benches to sit on.

Take up crab fishing in my lunch breaks and fill the work fridge with live crabs for my dinner could be an amusing option to get a new office rule implemented because of me.

If I'm telling you I got 4 hours of sleep, it's not pride. It's a warning.

Something I learned from cycling: When you put effort into using it, the morning is this mysterious beast of free time. We often get used to waking up, doing two-three things, and then it’s noon.

If you consciously sleep early, wake up early, and maybe plan to go somewhere as soon as you’re up, you can be back home planning to shower at your normal time, practically seeing your half asleep self doomscrolling in your bed from a prior day. You could even put a whole gaming session before your workday, if your job starts late enough.

I’ve taught my body to live with far less sleep than most, but I’m not under any illusion that it’s healthy. I’ve seen the studies. I know how important sleep is.

I have responsibilities in the morning, and I’ll go mad if I don’t have some time to myself at night. It shouldn’t be this way, but it is. I’d feel like a robot otherwise.

When you get to 1 hour that's when you start telling chatgpt 3.5 to post about how sigma grindmaxcore you are on LinkedIn.

I remember when I got literally 1h of sleep then had to do my 12h work shift, it was real shit, I don't wish it to happen to anyone.

Thank you for your wisdom monkey man

I think the text should be changed to like

• I only got 4 hours of sleep
• haha I only got 1

To better capture the weird superiority aspect that people have over their suffering in response to other people's complaints. As written, it reads more like someone making a joke about not getting much sleep and then someone responding (not in a joking way) that they got less.

It frustrates me that people in this thread complain about time problems but won't duscuss the obvious solution:

Tossing turds towards terrible time tyrants till they turn 9-to-5s to 10-to-4s

while it does make you seem like a badass, it really just means your performance is bad, ass.

I lowkey hate people like this . You can say “I’m so tired I did 15 hour shift today” and they’ll say “that’s nothing I did a 24 hour shift and still haven’t slept”. I didn’t ask????

I saw this last night, and only got 4. Damn your eyes, I have to work DX

For various unavoidable reasons, I’m on an average of 4 hours and I don’t like it, let alone take pride in it.

Short term and long term are ill defined subjective entities, if my short term is long term enough I win.

Makes me think of how I recently read Ishmael and it literally changed my life. I understand now. I am ape. Do as ape do.

There's like, a lot more than that, but that was my biggest takeaway (which would probably make the author very sad given what the book was actually about)

8 sleep? Yes. But what about naps, snoozes, dozing off, lucid dreaming, daydreaming, just resting my eyes, sleepwalking, wake sleeping, meditative trances and altered consciousness?

Do people actually flex how much of less sleep they got? I never met anyone who do this.
