I think it is Wii Rod, not weirod.
My wife will sometimes say she’s setting a “mental alarm” when she’d like to get up at a certain time but it’s not actually critical to be awake then and she tends to wake up right around then. There are plenty of times she wakes up one minute before her real alarm, too.
Your wife’s probably a witch bro. Tomorrow she’ll say she regularly gets a good night’s sleep. Witches man, I’m telling you.
Does she sleep a consistent schedule & get enough sleep, or is she able to do this despite waking up after 5 hours of sleep at a time that’s 4 hours earlier when working than on weekends?
See, I can do this, and often do. I wake up at 0730 naturally and it’s a great feeling when I wake up a couple of mins before the alarm. But I do set an alarm - because I’d never, ever bank on it.
Sod’s Law I’d sleep in when I need to catch a flight.
I’ve done the e wake up <5 minutes before my alarm lots of times. The problem is then I go right back to sleep and snooze the alarm for the next 8-24 minutes and end up late.
I kinda have to figure out when i want to wake up before i go to bed, and then it’s enough. I have never used an alarm in 20 years. I just know when i wanna be up and i wake up before it. Sue me.
Dyslexics of the world untie!
And just theiR bodies
I use an alarm, but 9/10 times I wake within 10 minutes before the alarm.
My body has started doing this and I hate it.
Just drink a ton of vodka. You’ll never have to worry about waking up before your alarm goes off.
The worst part is when its a weekend and your alarm isn’t going off at 6am but your body wakes up at 5:50 with a paniced feeling amyway
I really hate that I can’t get a lie in on the weekend. Kids wake up and my brain wakes up. I’ll have to start going to bed earlier…which I hate. I want to stay up and play video games and wake up late. But I guess I’m becoming an old man and need to embrace the old man life.

I hate it when I wake up with a panicked feeling of amyway. I broke up with Amy like 6 years ago now and she still haunts my dreams.
Why don’t you people proofread these things before posting?
You think we’re a bunch of weirods?
Lol it’s a meme not a research paper ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Weirod.
So everyone should just ignore basic spelling, grammar and punctuation? I seriously don’t understand that mindset. All you’re doing by not caring is making it even more obvious that you’re an idiot.
and getting all hot and bothered in a meme thread over it is any beter? all youre doin is makin it even more obvious that youre being a prick abot it
Just your bodies internal clock.
tyops improove engagement
I didn’t see anything wrong with it
My cats wake me up, does that count?
Talk about witchcraft!
That’s totally normal. You should be afraid of the weirod people, too
I, for one, welcome the new rod people.
I usually get up by 5. If breakfast isn’t out by 6, I will certainly know about it.
They are a useful backup to have.
Did your cats write the text on this meme?
I don’t need an alarm.
I wake up every few hours regardless.
And I’m always awake about 20 minutes before my alarm, no matter that time I set it to.
Existence is pain
Set your alarm to 20 minutes after you want to wake up. Come on, that was easy.
I’ve legitimately tried that, even tried no alarm at all.
The no alarm is a bad idea just because every so often I just sleep right on through, if I’ve had a particularly harsh day.
I think my brain just goes “you sneaky fuck, I know you REALLY want to get up at 7 so we are getting up at 630ishjust to be sure.”
I don’t think there’s a bigger bliss in this world than waking up randomly at night, looking over at the clock and realizing it’s still early as fuck so you can go back to sleep 🤤
When I was a kid, I would set an alarm for like 2am, just for this. I was a dumb kid (now not a kid…)
I was also a dumb kid!
- wakes up in the middle of the night
- realises it’s 4 am, need to wake up at 5am
- can’t fall asleep for 45min …
- no profit
unless you stress out about not being asleep and get angry and then you can’t sleep! hahahaha
Me when I have morning meetings, every time without fail. I specifically ask people don’t schedule shit until 10AM because of this, and most people are chill with it, thankfully.
cross time zone teams means my pointless standup meetings are either set at sharp 9 am or even earlier, fucking bullshit.
wow that blows. try moving east! i lived on the west coast and cross zone teams sucked. but now on the east coast the meetings are at like 2pm. freakin love it
I had team members outside of the US, hopefully my next job is better, but with all the outsourcing these days, I have little hope of even landing a job,let alone one where everyone I need to work with is local
amen to that
There is, it’s waking up early thinking you’re late to work / school only to realize you’ve woken early and today is your day off
If I don’t get up before 8:30am or so, my husky will softly grumble until I get up. The grumbles get progressively louder.

Having kids removed the need for alarms. The whole house is awake between 630 and 7 every day.
That’s basically everyone with a decent routine, no? I go to bed the same time, so I wake up the same time. The alarm is just for backup.
If anyone has trouble sleeping/waking with a set routine, there’s probably other factors at play like interrupted sleep cycles or sleep apnea.
Or stress or mental issues. Therapy can really help here.
I get up at the same time every weekday and it’s just programmed into my body to get up then or an hour later on weekends. It took 40 years to develop this superpower.
“Is it possible to learn this power?”
40 years as OP says ;) also you need to go to sleep at the same time
Yes, that part is key.
I sure love going to bed at a reasonable time, so I don’t need external devices to wake up :3
My cat has a more precise internal clock than humans could ever engineer.
Hint: it wakes up so punctually because it can hear the mice scratching in the walls, who are reacting to your boiler starting to heat the pipes at 7am sharp.
Yes, he knows when I’m in that deep sleep like 30-60m before my alarm goes off, so that when I give him the boot I don’t have enough time to go back to bed for any meaningful sleep.
I have a baby. No need for an alarm, he has one built in 👍
I usually wake up around 5-10 mins prior to my alarm if I slept the right amount (around 6 hours). In the rare occassion I get woken up by my alarm I feel the rest of the day like shit (very tired, annoyed at evrything, very sensitive to light, need 10 coffees to survive).
Same. If I am in a good sleep routine, I consistently wake up about 10 minutes before the alarm goes off, especially in the spring and summer. In winter I am somewhat more likely to immediately fall back asleep because I don’t hear the birds chirping.
6 hours ?? Don’t we all need more than 11? Guess I’m abnormal, ha
