bedtime

We're super excited to be out and about again after being holed up for so long. Then again, while parties are fun and all, there comes a time where we'd rather be binging Netflix or straight-up sleeping. But how do we leave a party without the host or guest realizing that we'd rather be anywhere else but here? A new Reddit thread has all the excuses you've been desperately searching for. Scroll down for hilariously awesome excuses to get out of that next party early on. 

If you're used to getting eight hours of uninterrupted sleep every night, then marriage might not be for you. One of the sacrifices you have to make in a long-term, committed relationship is sharing a bed with someone else for the rest of your life and enduring night after night of snoring, duvet stealing, and heavy breathing. It's not ideal, by any means. But it's the small price we pay for love, right? Right? Anyone? These hilarious tweets from the spouses of Twitter show the relatably annoying aspects of sharing a bed.

As most parents know, putting kids to bed is hardly a walk in the park. For some reason, they'll find every excuse under the sun to stay awake (until they become teenagers and then sleep is all they do) and make your life a misery while they do it.

Here are some of his funniest ones.
