mooters and sleep

How come no mooters ever go to sleep at the appropriate times? It's 1 AM where I am now, and the same people are actively posting as when I woke up at 10 AM, 14 hours ago.

How does everybody pull this off? And why not just sleep? Any theories? I'm drawing a blank until I can get some sleep myself.

(I apologise if such a thread excists or this will soon be closed.)

ok, I admit, I stay up unnecessarily long just waiting for a response to a thread.
I'm off to bed soon though, I promise.

Some people do wake up early to moot, or they literally moot through the night. No wonder so many of us are jobless bachelors.

I do that sometimes.

I'm a night owl normally, but as it is 12:37am now... I'm going to go to bed.

G'night!

I can barely think straight past eleven PM, so I have no idea how people can stare at a computer screen and type thoughtful comments so late. I need eight hours of sleep to function properly. Most of my family are early risers and go to be early, so maybe it's genetic. *yawn* I'm getting tired now and it's only eight PM. Although I did take a pill for my allergies an hour ago and that makes me sleepy.

Sometimes it seems like there is a steady stream of posts, though too.

I stayed up all night mooting once last summer. I was laying on the basement rug with a laptop and when I stood back up at 7 AM my elbows were bleeding. I can't wait to be able to do that again.

I love sleep. But I love chatting even more, so I stay up to about 2 a.m. I'm not tired before going to bed, but waking up at 7 a.m. isn't that nice..
Entmoot is dangerous for my health and my grades.. Stupid me!

I will stay online til around 11:30 and then I will read til 4:30/5:00. Then I will not get up til 2:00pm, or at least in the summer or on weekends . . . The latest I stay up mooting during school days is 10:30pm. Sleep is a better friend to me then some people I know
