You know, in most areas it's illegal to mow your lawn at night, but that's just due to noise regulations. If you have a smaller yard, consider mowing your lawn with a scythe at 2 in the morning. You can even wear a black robe if you want. There's no law that says you can't wear a dark flowing robe and cut your grass with a scythe at 2 in the morning.

Okay, now I want 3am ice cream trucks to be a thing. Also 3 am taco trucks.

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Last time I went to NYC I saw both 3am ice cream trucks, taco trucks, and other full on food trucks. It was wild.

Looking into my two year old bed and seeing that he's staring at me, awake but without a word.

Bro! Anyone from Omaha? I remember hearing that ice cream truck in the LATE hours of the night when I lived in the Benson area.

Bro there was an ice cream truck driving around at 11pm last night and I can confirm it was creepy.

A stroller by the side of a gas station.

used to live in a college town and an ice cream truck owner decided to start rolling around friday and saturday night... he got a lot of drunken business

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 47 points 2 days ago (1 children)

My exact thought. Ice cream truck at the bars around 2am? Fucking killing.

[–] PacMan@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

He got any burritos in that truck?

[–] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Bet you he was selling weed too

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 4 points 1 day ago

That's probably why there's an ice cream truck around me even during the winter. I'd want to confirm first otherwise it would be a rather awkward interaction.

Full sunlight filling the sky. Unless you're in the far north or far south this would be very concerning.

Turns out you slept way too long and your clock stopped at 3 .

Someone digging a hole in their yard.

“What are you doing?!?”

“I'm burying you”

“ I'm alive Brennan, I'm alive!”

“You're waking the neighbors! Shut up!”

Look, 3am is the only time I get to work on my garden.

You might want to mention this to your vet if you haven't already. It's probably nothing, but just in case there's an underlying health problem causing this.

[–] spicystraw@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

The ice cream trucks around here switched to playing pop songs :/

[–] TheRedSpade@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

That seems like a poor choice.
