Top o' the mornin' to ye
If there's a more invigorating way of shaking off the "what the fuck am I doing awake at this hour" blues than washing your balls in black mint Source shower gel then I'm yet to find it. Alright, a more invigorating LEGAL way.
How do you banish the urge to go back to bed and tell the world to fuck off? Or what else have you discovered lately? Ball-tingling sensations optional.
Alt - Chompy and Monty have both expressed a distaste of late for the humble strikethrough. What would you submit to the mods as a suggestion to improve B3ta? If I didn't think it'd become a Troll's best friend, an "I dislike this" button would be nice.

I put forward the notion of a 'this is fucking shit' button years ago. But did anyone do anything about it? No they did not.
By the way, I do not wish to read about your testicles first thing in the morning, please, old boy. Or, for that matter, at any time of the day or night. Thank you.
In answer to your question, I'm fine in the mornings. I just get up and get on with it. My problem is with afternoons. Once I have had my lunch any sense of urgency I felt (spurred on by nagging hunger) dissipates instantly and I might as well go home via the pub, for all the use I am. Strangely, this is reversed when I've been up all night and then go to work the next day: the morning is unbearable but I perk up again after lunch.

Once again I'm stealing your ideas
My most humble apologies, Mr Boyce.
I'm generally much the same, actually - for example, this lunchtime I'm off to the pub with a colleague, and I know that the afternoon is going to be a complete fucking write-off. The beer won't help. Obviously this will not stop me drinking it, at least twice.

Which part of the question is this an answer to?
'What else have you discovered lately?'
If so, you clearly don't listen to what people tell you even if they all say the same thing repeatedly. Or perhaps you like to wake yourself up by walking into a wall each day?
Or perhaps you think B3ta could be improved by your walking into walls? It hasn't improved since Lab ran into a barbecue so I suggest this is a shit idea.
OR.....this is shameless 'look at me' tedium, wholly unrelated to the question. WHICH IS IT?

A thought
If you were, say, missing your arm below the elbow and then we
1) brought in a chav,
2) chopped off his arm above the elbow,
3) chopped off yours in the same place
could we not then attach it to you? After all, if a severed limb is placed on ice at the time of an accident they can usually reattach it, and here we'd have a limb and a stump both freshly severed...

Reading this thread, and all the replies to it
is akin to a heavy dose of morphine. It is the polar opposite in 'invigorating' and I urge you all to up your game tenfold, even if that means you all have a massive go at me.
Have a look at yourselves. No-one gives a flying shit about your shower gel.

You're about one "I don't believe it" away from turning into a musical Nazi Meldrew. If I want to talk about how easy it is for me to get in the morning without washing my smooth sack, then I bloody will.
Just because you showered in Krug (the only thing you scrubbed was the inside of your nose with some Brillo) and your get up and go in the morning is pure, black hate, maybe WE don't want to know.

It's not, it's not perfect but it's a decent attempt to explain the human mind.
By looking at it purely from an evolutionary stand point you get away from a lot of the distractions that the mind takes on from modern life.
What I assume you have against it is that it often come to conclusions that are racist and sexist and generally anti liberal. Morality doesn't come into it though, leave it alone.
