Why is everything funnier late at night?

[Ratboy Genius]

I'll be laying in bed at midnight, scrolling through the stupidest memes laughing my head off (my sister always tells me to shut up). Shouldn't things be LESS funny when you're trying to be sleepy?

Sleep deprivation is a hell of a drug

Because they only release the mind control gas late at night, when they think everyone is asleep. I recommend duct tape around all your windows and on your vents.

Mods are asleep.

Critical thinking skills weaken the closer you are to dreamland.

My older brother used to call a point late at night the "poopoo peepee hour".
When it's so late and everyone is just so tired and a conversation will devolve into literally saying poopoo peepee and everyone is on their asses laughing hysterically.
