    I live in a student neighbourhood and when we moved here I thought, “Well my partner and I are still in our 30s and don’t have a family; we’ll be up drinking at the same times the students are.”

    I was so wrong. GenZ are strange - they don’t go out like we used to, and instead have early morning alarms for the gym. It’s a coinflip whether the alarm will wake them up though, sometimes their 6AM alarm is going for several hours and others you hear them get up.

    Could be worse I guess but now I feel bad having my lame middle aged friends back to the flat after the pubs close.

      I dont understand the alarm thing. My sister did that when I was a kid, extra loud alarm 6 inches from her face and she sleeps right through it. I dont understand how its even possible.

        Living a healthy lifestyle must give you superhuman abilities to get a good night’s sleep. Can only speculate since I’ve never been in that situation personally.
