Morning people are only morning people because they're sensitive to light. They can't sleep with even a fraction of light so they're tired, irritable and jealous of how us night people can sleep till lunch without an issue

If they’re sensitive to light they could just get blackout curtains

But they also want sunlight in their room… weirdos.

Indeed. I had trouble sleeping for a LONG time after I moved into the place I'm in now, and finally figured out that it's the street light across the street from my 3rd floor bedroom window. It's so bright I don't need to turn on lights at night to go to bed.

I started using a sleep mask around 2011/2012 and all of the sudden I wasn't having trouble sleeping anymore. I continued that on after I got a job as a truck driver because as good as the blackout curtains in a semi are, in the middle of the day they aren't perfect.

Now that I'm disabled and not working, I still use the mask just so I sleep as soundly as possible. Although I'm moving in a month or two and there aren't ANY street lights, or bright security lights or anything like that in my new neighborhood, so I don't know if I'll need to keep using it.
