I don't know. Maybe it's because I've always shopped early when
stores first open and I avoid all the idiots of the other
variety? Never encoutered any of this. I suspect they are mostly
fake stories.

Ever since age 17 I've always woken up or gotten up at around
4am. Mainly for early morning surfing. These days, I love to shop
as early as possible. Grocery stores no later than 7am. Walmart
rules because they are open 24/7. Most other stores don't open
until 9-10 so I rarely even bother with them. Pain in the ass to
have to go to my bank that opens at 9. Lazy turds.

Worst is the library. Opens at 10am so I rarely go there anymore.
How lame is opening at 10am? Most days, I've gone to several
places and finished all my driving and shopping by 8am.

Even still some early morning surfing occasionally (and when
sharks are feeding) or just a bike ride on the boardwalk. I
probably see more sunrises than most sleepy heads. If they only
knew what they were missing. A sunrise pic is no where near as
good as being out to see in realtime.

Just this morning....drove by the post office to mail some bills,
stopped by the nearby grocery store for a few things, then
stopped by a convenience store on the way home. I was home by
7:30am and didn't need to leave again unless I wanted too.
Unfortunately, had to be here for hours to get my old fridge
repaired. I hope he nailed it this time.

I suspect all these people problems with traffic and stores, etc
is only because people are lazy and don't go out early enough.
Not me.....dawn is the very best time of day for me. Dawn is when
you see and interact with all the good people that go to sleep at
normal times and wake up early to exercise or shop. The problem
people seem to stay up all night, then finally pass out by 4am
then sleep all day long. Worthless turds.
