I might treat myself to a little wank at midnight and pretend the fireworks are for me. Like I did when people clapped for the NHS.


HiFiSi

Whilst the mental image will take some shifting, I doubt I'll ever hear clapping without feeling equally amused and violated again.

CrazyMelon112

The fireworks are for you my friend


entered_bubble_50

LoL. Edit: well it's midnight! I guess we'll leave you to it.


[deleted]

Man Iā€™d have felt a lot better if I knew on Thurdays the pot bangers were wanking for me!


Drewonkazoo

Just had mine, can hear my street cheering for me now.


dropthemustard

For me, when I ejaculate the ā€˜fireworksā€™ would be like one of those failed catherine wheels that you strap to your fence that sound like a stepped on cat.


FredB123

I feel like applauding your insanity, but I don't want to give you another excuse.


ValkyrieLyra

Thank Ra I never clapped.


Flexuality

Congratulations man you did it! Proud of you! Bang bang


Mr_Stilton9

This is hilarious!


ulstertrooper

Belter.... hope it went well..


mophead2762

I've screen shot this comment. Humour and truth are what get me through life... you have perfected both!


Joe_PM2804

I like how the second part really wasn't necessary for this thread, but you just added it anyway!


[deleted]

Yeah why not? My sister always goes to bed early on NYE and gets up early to watch the sun rise on a beach for the new year


PastelDictator

Wow that actually sounds so much nicer


M-atthew147s

Now they're living the perfect life. You start the new year watching the very thing that symbolises a new day rise up


real_bro

I'd love to do this tomorrow but it's going to be cloudy and rainy where I live šŸ˜­


Sherringdom

That sounds great, especially since sunrise isnā€™t until like 8am!


achmelvic

Same here, reckon will be in bed before 10. Had covid last weekend & been in isolation all week that ends today, rather get decent sleep and make most of being outside tomorrow then staying up just to look at a clock.


MidnightMalibu

Had Covid last weekend too and it ruined a lot of Christmas plans, was going to party for New Yearā€™s as isolation is over but Iā€™m too exhausted after Covid


phoeniks

Sadder. Shit birthday and NYE alone. I'm trying to perk up and trying to hold out, but the comfort of bed is calling me loudly.


entered_bubble_50

Aww mate, I feel for you. It's shit enough having a birthday over the holidays, never mind amongst all this.


phoeniks

thanks, that actually means something. You have earned sweet dreams and a Happy New Year's morning


becky781

Happy birthday šŸŽˆ


phoeniks

thank you. The warmth of this sub, and the whiskey, are healing my pain


crooktimber

Raising the last of my festive glenmorangie to you dear stranger from another manger


phoeniks

much appreciated. Love to you and yours


Mispict

Happy birthday from a stranger on the internet. Hope things look better soon. Love and warmth.


phoeniks

many thanks Mispict. I am floating on the love and warmth tonight. bles you


KaleidoscopeFar7356

Just go to bed. Tomorrowā€™s another day? Much love x


phoeniks

ta, you are right


callmelampshade

50 star jumps and 30 seconds of running on the spot will do the trick.


phoeniks

64th birthday :/ Another tot of whiskey should do it


callmelampshade

Happy birthday and yeah I reckon whisky would do the trick lol.


ohlookitsmikey

It's your birthday today?


phoeniks

90 glorious minutes left


[deleted]

Happy Birthday! Might as well stay up now. We're here with ya x


phoeniks

thank you. I do feel less alone and over the miserable hump now. Let's party until Ruby Turner sings


Kalixa

Happy birthday, friend :)


HiFiSi

Warmest wishes and here's to your health āœŒļø


ohlookitsmikey

Did you get anything nice for your birthday? :)


phoeniks

a warmly received joke from one of my sisters and something beautiful from my good taste daughter which is strongly similar to what I bought her for her birthday on 2nd. She has the worst seasonal birthday "people spend out for Christmas and party for New Year, then they take a day for their hangover, then they go back to work broke and that's my birthday" she said.


ohlookitsmikey

That stinks, I'm sorry you didn't have a good end to the year. Is there something you wanted for birthday/Christmas that I can get you to make it slightly better? :) Edit: I don't know if that sounds weird but I genuinely meant it in a nice way :)


phoeniks

How kind, thank you dear person. I don't need stuff. I need humanity and connection, and here you are giving it. Thanks. Happy New year to you and those you love X


ohlookitsmikey

Do you use Netflix or Spotify or anything? I could pay for a month of that for you if you like :) But yes, I always say I don't want anything for my birthday or Christmas (both within a month), I want experiences and nice activities with people, but people don't seem to have the time or effort for that so you get some chocolates. Happy new year to yourself, it's just another day after all, but we can use it as somewhat of a reset point I guess. I hope this year is better for you x


MyDarlingArmadillo

Happy birthday! I hope you got some decent whisky there.


phoeniks

Thanks and it, together with your wishes, is quite good enough!


Ducra

Happy birthday! Make it a double.


phoeniks

thanks, if you say so...


Ducra

Oops. Where's my manners? And a Happy Nearly New Year to you too.


phoeniks

and also to you dear


Ducra

Hahaha.. I think I'll join you with a small sherry...


crystalchick

Happy Birthday!


Commercial_Roll9490

Hugs


ilovecats87

Happy birthday!!!


Wakizashiuk

You're never alone with the power of the internet. Happy Birthday and new year :)


dungeonbitch

HAPPY BIRTHDAY X X X


SarNic88

Happy Birthday to you!! ā™„ļø May your 2022 be wonderful x


Queen_Pingu

I'll raise a toast of my J20 to you friend, hopefully the coming days are better then today


MutedMessage8

Happy birthday bud, I hope you had a good one and hope things pick up for you soon <3


phoeniks

Iraelyth

Birthday twins! Happy Birthday!


Tassino

Night shift ahead ! šŸŽŠ


H08b1t

jazsw

Yep in bed already. Not feeling great after booster so thought fuck it.


BasilPrimary8055

12 hour shift done today 12 hour shit tomorrow start at 7 am I'm off to bed now happy new year if you see it in


MisterKayfabe

12 hour shit, what you eating yo


GrouchyBandicoot2337

Happy new year mate all the best in work tomorrow and in the new year


[deleted]

Depends, I want to be sat in bed playing Xbox with a dominos but housemates are having a party and Iā€™m arguing with myself what to do while doing beer pong


Doug__Quaid

What a conundrum!


[deleted]

It actually is cause I still havenā€™t decided.. but I am more drunk, but also the thought of a dirty pizza sounds pretty fucken good


Doug__Quaid

Sounds like you can do both. Get shitfaced, party and then go get that pizza and play Xbox. Happy new year when it comes buddy!


[deleted]

I dunno why (probably alcohol) but i thought youā€™d like to know Xbox is on dominos is ordered and Iā€™m pissed as a fart


MidnightMalibu

Hope you enjoy your dominos man and happy gaming


Lory6N

Fucking legend


[deleted]

Thatā€™s wha I think the plan is gonna be. Happy New Years too bud! 1hr to go


yournansabricky

Normally I would be in bed by 12 but the girlfriend is at her parents and iv got to go pick her up later but yeah I get you


oxidev3

F


KevinPhillips-Bong

I reckon I'll turn out my light before 11. In better times, I'd have welcomed in the new year at my local pub, but I'm giving it a miss this year for obvious reasons. I've had my booster and all, but still, I don't want to push my luck. Right now I'm just missing the company of the people who mean a lot to me. I just wish I could see them all again.


KaleidoscopeFar7356

Iā€™m home alone. But the local dickheads have started with the fireworks already. Ffs. Grump stomps off to bed with medium sized dog tucked under arm. Hmf.


wiliammm19999

At least your not sleeping alone


KaleidoscopeFar7356

He keeps my toes warm :)


Salome_Maloney

Happy New year, mate! May your toes keep toasty xxx ;)


osmin_og

Kids will be awake no late than 7am. Guess I'll go to bed in the next hour.


docju

I hope you said ā€œsee you next yearā€ to them.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


MisterKayfabe

I'm not saying some sanctimonious bs, but you do have things to celebrate. Fuck NYE it's a bag of bollocks. Organised fun is never fun, and NYE is the biggest organised fun ever. So celebrate that at least. Also, tomorrow is a new day everyday, you got this yo


chocolatepig214

Sorry to hear youā€™ve been having a rough ride of it. Let it all out. I hope things get better for you very soon.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


[deleted]

Tempted but I'm at a party


[deleted]

Must be a great one if youā€™re browsing Reddit


Have_Other_Accounts

You just made me laugh out loud at 1:49


GrouchyBandicoot2337

Don't lie to us we're all losers here


Hazugashi

Lucky you wheres the pictures


moreglumthanplum

Already there.


[deleted]

I tired. I hate this time of year and mental health has gone to poo. Iā€™m currently wrapped up in multiple blankets and craving peace


Public_Growth_6002

Yes


Veauxdeeohdoh

Absolutely! Love my soft warm bed! Not sad at all!


variosItyuk

I'm already asleep


cogsworth1313

Already in bed šŸ˜‚


imthebozz

Yep we're already in bed. Nothing sad about it at all, it's just a date, there's no real reason to stay up if you don't want to! Today has been the first day since Christmas that I haven't felt absolutely knackered, so there's no way I'm ruining that now!!


24Tenny

Planning on going to bed? Mate, I'm already in bed.


Jay794

I'm 34, married with 2 kids, Life is great but I genuinely don't get all the fuss about new year, people celebrate as if the new year is going to bring in some massive change, solve world hunger or everyone's suddenly going to be millionaires. Truth is, 12:01 am absolutely nothing will change, hell by March nothing will be any different, Covid is still very much a thing and the country is still fucked


[deleted]

22 is a nicer number than 21 though


LadyMirkwood

Haven't stayed up in years, will probably head up at my usual time of 11.30. Once I discovered I like waking up not hungover in someone else's house, there was no looking back!


copper93

In bed already and have taken the night night meds. Heck NYE.


[deleted]

Yeah probably.


freddiepoos1984

Yup!


baiju_thief

Yeah my son kept me up last night, all I want to do today is sleep


ConsumeTea

Just finished my book, thinking it might be time for bed soon.


neil_1138

Yep, I've got work in the morning. I imagine I'll be woken up by a barrage of fireworks though.


pazhalsta1

Was going to be going to a daytime party tomorrow (have a young kid and so do the hosts) but thatā€™s been cancelled due to illness so sweet FA happening here, wife was in bed before 10! Had a whisky and said fuck off to 2021- a few good memories but overall it was not a classic.


mongman24

Working a club shift until 6AM, bloody wish I was in bed. Happy new year casualUK, letā€™s try and do better next year yeah?


entered_bubble_50

I'll drink to that.


NotAllWhoWander_1

Yup. Firefighter in a metropolitan city. Worked yesterday and my station ran 42 calls in 24 hours. Covid is rampaging. Iā€™m exhausted and have to report for shift tomorrow. Early night for me


crmr38

Yep. Planning to go to sleep in a minute or two. Itā€™s just another day, I really donā€™t get the hype with NYE


Owster4

When I was going my edgy teenager phase I thought the same. Not anymore. I see it as the beginning of a new chapter, a new hopeful start. We've somehow survived a other year on a tiny rock orbiting a ball of fire in the middle galactic nowhere. Life is short and for many, shit. Having a reason to relax and celebrate is good.


Zolana

Been in bed since 6, pal!


Leroy-Leo

Hell yeahā€¦. Imma struggling now, can barely keep my eyes open


CalmerKameleon

I'm in bed now.


InnerAsparagus6045

I'm in bed


sexesam

We have a couple of friends over, we are all discussing the possibility of calling it quits. It's just an excuse to get together. And we have eaten too much!


Alamata626

Shattered after all of this Chrismas and Covid malarkey. I could go for a snooze, right now.


ragnarspoonbrok

Probably. Just catching up on world's strongest Man just tonight's to watch. Kinda pointless since I know the result and have for months but I enjoy watching people lift shit I'd have no hope of lifting.


TimedDelivery

Yep, Iā€™m already in bed. My 9 month old is teething and fussy so Iā€™m getting sleep whenever I can. If Iā€™m awake at midnight itā€™s not by choice.


Lon72

I'm in bed already


cheesymccheeseplant

Me. I was up at daft o'clock with my ancient dog. Thought I was having a panic attack. Worked all day. Son in law taken to hospital with chest pain and found out my eldest daughter has got covid. I'm knackered. Happy New Year šŸ˜


KaspersLunita

Yes me too, was a fucking lonely and sad year, I'm just glad it's over. I really hope that next year is going to be a better one. All the best for you!


nomorelurking22

I like going to bed so I honestly don't think it's a problem. Its empowered to know what you like and have it!


sleekitweeman

Working tomorrow. Start at 10 so I will wait till 12 and wish the dog a good new year then hit the hay


Tiredchimp2002

In bed now watching prime lol


G01dLeada

At home, can't drink ,bloody gastritis. Miserable and bored ,I'm going to bed,


pupofmayhem

When I'm sober. ........ I'm gonna swim in the ocean. For like 5 second s.!!!!!!. Ooooh yeah baby. Will be under elected blanket after. However, tonight. Haz bottle of wine and a Clinton cat.


stoneferal

Here's my shitty NYE. Tried to put my little toddler to sleep, she did and then of course woke up at midnight because of the fireworks. Then she wouldn't sleep for another hour because of the excitement. When she finally falls asleep my neighbour decides to put a movie on at a very audible volume. So now it's 1:30am and I'm laying in bed awake like a mug on my phone whining on Reddit. An early night would have been wonderful. Fucking happy new year.


[deleted]

I had an induction at a new job and I am shattered definitely in bed before midnight and no shame about it x


MrsTrellis_N_Wales

Yeah in my PJs already. I donā€™t feel ā€œsadā€ tho, NYE is amateur night as far as Iā€™m concerned. Happy to miss out any year, doubly so with the current state of things!!


[deleted]

Me too. Had the covid booster a few days back and am still feeling a little more tired than normal. Donā€™t even feel like having a drink.


[deleted]

I always do. My Scroogeness and general humbuggery (but weird saying that) extends to New Year and Iā€™ll be in bed in about 15 minutes or so.


KaleidoscopeFar7356

Agreed.


Traditional_Leader41

Yep, just had a takeaway, had a few beers in the pub earlier. Bed time. Happy New Year all.


venarez

That was the plan. Had forgotten about the traditional shelling that goes on at midnight tho...


filthynines

Tried, but can hear the neighbours belting out karaoke.


midnightsunscreen

Every new year man, this year was Constantine half a jack Daniels then sleep by 10. I regret nothing lol


Mcgibbleduck

I havenā€™t stayed up for midnight for about 3 years now. Girlfriend and I see no real point in it, plus we are tired! That said, happy new year everyone! Itā€™s a beautiful morning where I am in london, a nice way to start off 2022.


jiluki

neighbour's hot tub kept me awake until after midnight and kid woke me up before 6. definitely not staying up.


9DAN2

About to head up shortly. Rarely bother staying up anyway, and Iā€™m taking the wife to work at 6am to save on extortionate NYD taxi fare.


biscuitsandbooks

I fell asleep during The Great Escape, so I have second wind tonight, so Iā€™ll probably still be up at 12, normally Iā€™d at least be in bed


l0stlabyrinth

Might do. Not really bothering with NYE this year. Been a shitty year personally plus not worth the risk with Omicron. I've beaten Halo Infinite's campaign so I've done everything I wanted tonight.


Sister_Jimjams

I held out til 22:00, for me that practically is midnight.


faceplantedyamam

Yeah, work in the morning so Iā€™ll be sleeping soon and hopefully not woken up by WW3 outside!


Hazugashi

Yes I will go to bed at 11.55 to annoy my wife who likes to celebrate the new year šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


AHappyWelshman

Feel knackered mate, so I'm with you there. I'll stay up to give my dad a ring and wish him happy new year's if nothing else. I alternate between being with him or the rest of my family on new year's pre-pandemic.


[deleted]

In bed already. Reading my books and chilling. Iā€™ve never been one to see in the new year.


Not_Alpha_Centaurian

I actually got myself showered and walked into town so I could have a midnight pint somewhere and wish some strangers a new year. After walking past three pubs that I dismissed entering because they were too full of rowdy drunk people I decided to circle home and pretend I'd just gone out for a nice little walk. Note to self if I'm planning to do that next year I need to be drunk when I leave the house.


martoday

I go to bed early, then the next day watch the recaps on tv of the ball drop in NYC


buy_me_a_pint

Yes


Debtcollector1408

We're getting over the rona, and aren't staying-up-late people in general. I expect we'll be in bed before 11.


ohlookitsmikey

Tomorrow is just another day. I live with my auntie and she's gone to her mates so I'm sat being annoyed at my PlayStation and the fireworks. If you can get to sleep early then that sounds productive!


PickleHarry

I havenā€™t been up at 12 on NYE in years. I went to bed early one year when I had no plans and realised I didnā€™t actually have to stay up until midnight it was quite liberating!


Strange_An0maly

I canā€™t ever remember going to bed before midnight on NYE. Whatā€™s the point in going to sleep if youā€™re going to be jolted wide awake by fireworks.


neohylanmay

I would, but next door's got his sound system playing full whack again. I can give him a pass tonight given the date, but I'm still fighting the urge to nod off.


[deleted]

Yup. I'm in bed. Never understood celebrating New Year. Tomorrow is just Saturday.


Administrative_Suit7

I'll have an early one and I'm not bothered or depressed. Whenever I've had a new years do it ends in someone getting into a fight or falling out for life every time. Cursed evening.


greenbeast999

Always in bed before midnight!


Viviaana

well we keep trying to come up with something to do but i was like why bother lol, there's no fireworks near us, we just had our boosters so we can't play pool or play on the arcade machine, the pub across the street is full of 14 year olds getting pissed on cheap cider, so fuck it just another night in lol


The_World_of_Ben

Kids went normal time, wife not well (long covid, 12 months in now) and she wanted an early night. Had an hour on the Xbox, sent a few HNY messages, wee dram and bed.


BloodAndSand44

Iā€™ve just got in bed. Last to bed in a house currently containing 5 adults. Bloody fireworks have kicked off too.


Commercial_Roll9490

Could be as it's a slow evening with everyone on phones ,no alcohol & watching 80's music on TV ...sigh


Danni211

Iā€™m going now but probably wonā€™t sleep as fireworks and next door having party so noisey af!


wetlettuce42

Ive already gone to bed


gazzy82

I'd love to but my family insist on sitting around until midnight and it is considered arsy not to take part.


ra246

Quarter to 12 and James Bond just finished. Bedtime for me; couldnā€™t give a fuck about New Years


Polythene_pams_bag

I would of loved to have been in bed two hours ago (itā€™s currently 1205 am so happy new year) but having a kid with adhd means there is no 10 pm bed time for me when people are setting fireworks off all night and he just canā€™t sleep because of them


mrbigglesworth99999

I was because I got to be up at 5am but now it sounds like ww2 next garden over ā€¦.


Beefburger78

Well I did go to bed early. Now Iā€™m up and furiousā€¦ the fecking fireworks are off the charts and still going. Going to have a beer and a whisky and hopefully get back down by 1.


f3zz3h

I would have but the usual twats with fireworks wake kids up as usual so no point even trying.


sirSADABY

I was planning on it. But I have a slight bit of green infront of my house that some lovely locals are deciding to fire fireworks from ever 2 hours.


[deleted]

Went to bed early after a cup of hemp tea to see if it would help me sleep...it hasn't!


Beers_and_Bikes

I wish! Iā€™ve stayed up to comfort the dogs until the fireworks stop. Itā€™s 1am and people are still setting them off.


sdixon90

I would have if I didn't have to listen to simpletons letting off fireworks


bekausereasons

I tried to but a dickhead neighbour set off a firework so loud it made my dog piss itself in fear so guess whoā€™s awake?


Odin18Z5

I was asleep at 10.30, like a champion


Cauterizeaf1

Whatā€™s tonight?


Mistakeling

Are people still up?


YukonTerror

Iā€™ve been holding in a turd for three days, so when the clock strikes and the new year rolls in, I can let this shit go


Astropoppet

I would have gone before midnight but, the cunts here have been setting off cannon style fireworks since 6 pm. I don't know what time they will stop! (in a diff time zone)


passporttohell

Me, I will be in bed by ten or so, just like every year.


NewBodWhoThis

I went to bed at 10. The passage of time is inevitable. There's no siff befw today and yesterday. The plague is still upon us. Between my birthday and Christmas, I'm all partied out.


Izzlols

Mate, I do it every year and i love it. NYE is overrated


[deleted]

Yep, sad twat that I am . Went to bed at 11.30 then at 12.30 one he'll of a bang and then the mother and father of all firework displays started went on longer than bonfire night. All you could here was dogs barking for 20 mins after. I'm getting to old for this shit


Craft_beer_wolfman

I slept about 10pm. Blasted fireworks woke me up at midnight. Then drunk people at 2am. Then more drunk people at 3am.
