I mean seriously….how-why-who the fouck needs eggs,bacon,waffles, grits,hashbrowns, gravy, biscuits, coffee and juice at 5:40 AM??

Gawd

Even when I was roofing for 15 years and doing big strong boy type contracting work. (Not sit on your ass on a Bobcat) type work.

Even then, no breffuss…fugg alla that BS, it was an all out bust ass to get on that roof and go like an animal till at least noon. THEN…we’d come down and go take a break.
THEN…you had to fuss with the masses all in line at the grub joint. Who…were prolly the chow sucking ass holes with 4 lbs of breakfast still in their crops. All hungry from their carbed-out pancreas kicking their ass.

It boggled my mind.

I eat first thing when I wake up. I'm starving. I'm an ill SOB before eating. I can't imagine no breakfast. I'd have multiple homicide charges on my rap sheet if I tried to live without breakfast.

Bingo!

I can remember as a kid rushing to church without much breakfast or anything to eat. Would fidget, squirm, not follow along with Mass, the old man would have to whack me a coupla times. everything better after getting some food in me.

Later, got kicked out of English class in HS for eating cornnuts. Had to have a snack by 0900 and they didn't give us enough time between classes.

Have to keep jerky or granola bars in the car in case we're driving and I need to eat.

Docs say borderline hypoglycemic. Once, had a regular breakfast, then at 0900 a grapefruit. By 1130 I was feeling it and a coworker who had some glucose test strips said I could use one to test, I was down to 70 already.

You really don't want to be around me much if I haven't eaten in 4 hours.
