Snooze button pushers

Waking up early can be bad enough. Why would you choose to torture yourself over and over again?

I don't use snooze every day but sometimes I just need a more gradual wakening.  So I'll hit snooze and start waking up as I lay there.   Sometimes I turn on sports talk radio while I'm waking up until the next alarm sounds.  And sometimes I make it a game - I wake your Mom up and tell her she needs to give me a BJ and if she finishes me off before the snooze goes off again I'll give her her teeth back.

This is weird but ever since the Covid times of working from home I really don’t set an alarm and I still get up at pretty much the same time. I typically just wake up around 6 no matter what despite what time I fell asleep. 

Occasionally need to wake up crazy early for a flight, talking like 3 am. I set an alarm for that and I will still wake up before the alarm goes off. I think for paranoia that I will oversleep.

I don’t really remember having the alarm wake me up for quite a long time. It kind of sucks on weekends TBH

Alarm goes off,  hit the snooze, I read my Bible and when the alarm goes off again it’s go time.  I see no problem with it.

Not opposed to it if you are afraid you will fall back alseep accidentally.   

I dont use snooze.  I wake up pretty early.  I figure if I wanted 15 more minutes of sleep id just set my alarm 15 minutes later.  Seems logical to me.

Kind of the same. I wake up 6 to 7 everyday, no matter when I fall asleep. at 54, getting up is more when I gotta pee.

That's interesting because your mom just likes it in the butt. No need to worry about the teefs.

He’s not a liar. He just forgot to tell you he jerks his bird thinking of alter boys during that “bible time snooze”.

Why don't you people just set your alarm later then?

[WhiteWonder 2,904]

As someone already mentioned, some people don’t like to immediately jump out of bed when the alarm sounds. So if you’re worried you might doze off again, hitting snooze is just a good “oh shiit” button. 
usually when I hit it I end up turning it off 10 min later when I do get up and it never winds up going off again on its own.

My wife hates that i get up and in full conversation mode yet shes like dont talk to me until 2 cups of coffee and at least an hour.

Not godly.  Jesus didn't need an alarm.
