5:00 AM is the real midnight
Ok hear me out on this one, I believe 12:00 AM is really 5:00 AM because that’s when the next day truly begins. Like if you stay up until 4 in the morning, it still feels like the previous day even though its the next day already, but past 5:00 AM is the point of no return. Since at that point the sun is rising, the birds are chirping, your dad is making noises in the bathroom, etc. so you might as well just pull an all nighter and not go to sleep.
The math makes sense too because let’s say you go to bed at 4 and you get 7 hours of sleep which is pretty average, then that means you’ll wake up at 11 and you can still have a pretty normal day. But if you go to bed at 5, 6, 7, you’re waking up in the afternoon so you pretty much already wasted half of the day. Anyways I should probably go to bed but that’s my reasoning for my opinion
