Loads of people i know are a bit cranky in the morning, a few are cranky late at night, i even knew one person that was cranky if he did not eat at a certain time, so do you have a cranky time?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
whenever my blood sugar level is low(when i don't eat), but who isn't cranky when there hungry ??...
 
I'm too tired in the morning to be cranky. I do get a bit cranky if dinner is late and I'm really hungry, especially toward anyone who further delays my dinner. Otherwise, it's just one or two days a month...
 
I'm almost never cranky. And when I am it only lasts until someone points it out to me. and when I'm on my period.

We make allowances for people that have broken bits, or missing bits., having said that you do not come over as cranky.

I guess I never get cranky. I can get annoyed but usually I catch myself and let it go. Ever since I practiced that approach, getting cranky or annoyed has basically gone into non-existence.

I get cranky when I don't have enough sleep. I sleep around 12-14 hours per day (given the chance), anything under 12 will mean I am tired. My record is also 24 hours...Can anyone beat that?

One time I didn't sleep for 13 days and then I hit the sack for 43 hours straight. I wouldn't recommend it because when I woke up I pulled all my muscles instantaneously, and I didn't get my usual morning "you know" and instead I got morning "steel".

If cranky can=sarcastic and generally apathetic to all but my friends, then yes, I am quite often.

Why did you stay awake for 13 days? Aren't you supposed to pass out after like 3?

I'm almost never cranky.

In fact, twice in my life I've been told - many years apart and by persons who didn't know each other - that I have the personallity of a Golden Retriever.

It's weird enough to be told that once in a lifetime.
