From Wittypedia
A period of time, often measured in hours, where a person wallows in
grief and general negative emotion at the completely predictable loss of a good nights
sleep. People found in this state should be slapped, hard, no less than three times, forcing their heads to rotate from the force of the impact each time (this does not constitute medical advice).
Tea or
coffee helps, but not as much as a slap.
- Picasso was famous for his chronic mourning until the jetlag from a transatlantic flight gave him a nasty case of the noons.
- People like to wear black when mourning, this is because colour is very tiring to look at and sometimes forces the viewer to smile uncontrollably.
