[@otakuevolution2131]

It's so amazing. As a child, you hate taking naps, but as an adult, it becomes one of the few outlets for your depressing existence. Well, at least mine.

[@grantbarday5760]

Preach

[@onionfarmer3044]

Maybe fix your sad life instead of sleeping.

[@theradionicrevival8068]

The main difference is kids are often reasonably frustrated because they have 0 control over their lives and everything is predetermined Some parents that extends to just stuff like school and doctors visits and others to really creepy and weird territories where it’s just flat out dangerous to force kids to do. Generally, kids also just have high energy, so forcing them to sleep, especially when they ain’t tired is why it gets on so many of their nerves Even as adults, part why naps slap so hard, is because we take them when we want to a lot of the time. Even outside of naps, it doesn’t matter what it is, nothing hits harder than when you’re doing something out of the pure freedom of choice vs being forced too That level of defiance is one of those things I don’t kids ever really grow out of lmao

[@sudokuacrobatics]

[@VictorGonzalez-xs9oc]

I remember when I was little, i sometimes take naps, sometimes I don't.

[@jaylene.turner6524]

Naps are great,Stewie. It’s definitely great as you aged. 🤣

Even though it's true that the parents want to get time to their self, but in daycare, that just another story.

[@raellmoreland2373]

Got that right

[@beckykennedy6886]

It’s ironic. As kids we don’t like naps. As adults, a nap is a dream come true for me

[@tyber124]

Nothing is ironic you about this: Kid: not much responsibilities, love learning new things (till school trying to do everything to kill it in you) so day is great, do not want to waste it on sleeping. Adult: responsibilities, stres and other crap make you wish to just embrace sweet sweet bed.

[@luisfilipe2023]

Speak for you as a kid I loved naps still do

[@theliam3786]

I liked naps all my life

[@triopsate3]

We should do what china does and make it the norm for companies to give its workers enough time to take a nap during lunch break.

[@douglasbullet6456]

That's because kids have more energy and less responsibilities than adults

[@illbeyourmonster1959]

*Kids:* I will go to war to not take a mid-day nap" *Adults:* I'd kill a small army to get a mid-day nap.

[@Slowpoke3x]

True my preferred nap time is midnight to 7:30 am and 1:30 -4:00 pm.

[@michaelv7956]

A moment of silent for those who served back in the great nap rebellion, some died, some others got the nap injections, I was 4 and I served for my fellow nappers.

[@RaptorFromWeegee]

Thank you for your service

[@bobafett6174]

During the waning hours of the nap rebellion the 501st was discreetly transferred back to back to the Daycare, we all knew what was about to happen, what we were about to do did we have any doubts, any private traitorous thoughts, perhaps but none said a word not during the flight to the daycare not when order 66 came down and not when we marched into the the classroom. Not a word

[@MoltenUprisingMK]

Despite having the IQ of an atomic physicist, Stewie still behaves like the toddler he is from time to time. And that's part of the genius of his character.

[@kormaclodgin5121]

27 years later the 3 years old would kill for a nap during a day.

[@Yorkshire42069]

Then just take one

[@dinomanny41]

Actually, Stewie STILL isn't aged yet past one yet.

[@Herowebcomics]

Naps are good for helping kids and adults recharge! Sure they can be a tool in an adult's arsenal of ways to take a break from kids,but still,they aren't all bad!

"I'm not a boomer I'm GenX" bro my mom was born in 1967 and she says this ALL THE TIME LMAO

[@t.jclarke5984]

Technically he would be a gen z

[@RaptorFromWeegee]

It true, 1967 is def genX. I say that all the time too. Gen x officially starts in 1965, or 63 by some almanacs. If you were in the Kiss Army, watched Lidsville, wanted your MTV, saw the conversion from 18 to 21 yo drinking age, and giggled about "wheres the beef!" You're gen-x. If you saw the transition from normalized school bullying to post-columbine rules against it, you're at the tail end of gen-x.

[@toastedt140]

Generations are a faux construct that break down the further you get away from baby boomers. ​@RaptorFromWeegee

[@alexandriahunt6058]

I remember my classmates requesting a naptime in 4th grade 😹 It was hard, going from PE to a math lesson. We all just wanted a moment to relax.

[@BatmanFan76]

0:07 - 0:11 Oh, you mean the website that won’t let us swear, or show content with inappropriate material and automatically deletes your comments for no reason and turns off the comments on kids videos and keeps getting beaten by TikTok. Yeah, Stewie. KZbin sure is glorious.

[@NathanMulgrew]

Teenagers don't appreciate the value of naps until they get to college and get a taste of being an "adult"

[@DKNguyen3.1415]

Nah they just have more energy so don't need them.

[@SavantPete]

This is the closest reference we're going to get to Tobey Maguire in Family Guy

[@fablethewolf825]

An interesting take on things because recently, child psychologists have started to consider separation anxiety as a possible reason small children resist naps. Think about it, babies don't have object permanence. To them, you're not in another room, you're just gone. The idea is that this feeling lingers in toddlerhood; the child is terrified of going to sleep with you at their bedside and waking up to find you gone. And why do parents typically relish naptime, especially with little kids?

[@RaptorFromWeegee]

Its time we teach these preschoolers that object permanence is ISN'T real! As a prank, take your 3 year old, drop him off with strangers, then never come back again! Its hilarious to see the strangers tell it, "mommy's gone forever", they totally freak out! Then you get a series of strangers to continually keep separating from the kid. Watch the kid squeeling each time. Eventually they just stop crying at all and remain motionless. At this point the pranks over.

[@thedemolitionmuniciple]

@@RaptorFromWeegee at this point someone has hurt you and I hope you find help or are kidding

[@GanonGhidorah]

Yeah, just wait a few years when you're a teenager, Stewie. You'll be looking back on Naptime with _fond nostalgia,_ because you won't have it anymore.

[@vsgfilmgroup]

You don't NEED naps when you're a teenager. You've got the most energy you'll ever have. Now, when you hit 40, then you'll be wanting a little extra snooze in your day.

[@EJAXK13]

Brian is right about KZbin. But he is a boomer. Calling himself a Gen x is insulting to everyone.

[@hals6118]

I mean he's always just been Seth's self-insert, and Seth is Gen X. The reality is that you guys ARE the next boomers--they'll all be dead in fifteen years.

[@estebangutierrez160]

Can the writers stop making Brian a massive know-it-all asshole already.

[@lioraselby]

Why is it insulting to everyone?

[@jacobcasler8684]

Not so, he was middle aged when the show came out, so it's safe to assume that despite the 7:1 age ratio, he really is a gen x dog at 8 when the show came out

[@jacobcasler8684]

Besides, he wasn't even born before or even during the sixties

[@hotelmario510]

Stewie saying "OK Boomer" had the same effect on me as if someone hit me in the back of the skull with a length of lead pipe.

Good thing Brian warned us about KZbin on KZbin 😂😂😂😂😂

[@jacobstallings5214]

Ngl I was one of those kids, I never took a nap in daycare or kindergarten and would sometimes get in trouble for not even trying to sleep, but I'd atleast lay there with my eyes open for 30 minutes, but that apparently still wasn't enough lol

[@cassiefuchs3657]

According to my parents, me and my brother never napped. Getting to sleep has always been difficult for me and trying to get me to nap wasn't going to happen if I wanted it. I suspect any kids I have may be the same so I may find myself to advocate for them.

[@NewGuy2534]

Ah yes. The Great Nap Rebellion of ‘99. Those were dark days.

[@justinw7323]

Day naps are great because it makes me forget about my annoyances throughout the day. When you're an adult you'd appreciate them.

[@khyabatiste3669]

It’s funny how all the things you despise as a child end up being the things you wish you have as an adult.

My dad was a teacher during 1999. The number of bodies buried that day were absolutely staggering.

[@LXW-Arts]

They really need to make nap time a universal thing Nap Time in highschool would of been awesome

[@rangerfanboy1710]

Yeah, you tell a kindergarten kid to take a nap, said child will pout or worse case, throw a tantrum. You tell a high schooler to take a nap that teenager will do one of two things: put their feet on their desk, or their face on their desk and nap away

[@mikethedemon2456]

In kindergarten my class was given naps before we went home. I hated it. I remember the AC being cranked up while I’m just laying there on a mat made out of foam. No blanket, no pillow. Just laying there freezing to death.

[@Salemchevy]

My brother was a part of the nap war. He lost many soldiers under his command but it ended with victory

[@rottenapple_]

I'm an adult and I hate taking naps just as I did as a kid. Some things never change

[@matthewjarek3026]

I wonder what Stewie originally thought the purpose for taking naps was.

[@Rhoine]

I was three at the time of the rebellion, unfortunately the rebellion was utterly and swiftly crushed in schools across my state, and participators were given prescriptions of adderall injections under the guise of them being “difficult to handle”, I still remember those patches to this day. Lest We Forget.

[@Three-Headed-Monkey]

Lol the 1776 in the username is great.

[@backitup5954]

Gotta love the commentary in this episode. 😂

[@illbeyourmonster1959]

I was probably around 4 when I figure out that nap time for me meant that mom was tired. When I was tired I just took a nap where ever I felt like it and nobody made a big deal out of it.

[@fishingmasterstudios9481]

That's when you know you've left childhood and are officially an adult: once you've reached the point where sleep stops feeling like a punishment, and starts feeling like a reward.

One thing children like Stewie don’t understand is that parents need time away from kids occasionally. Their reason is because sometimes kids are too much, and they don’t know it.

[@ashblossomandjoyoussprung.9917]

It's just bizarre how out-of-touch with reality they come across as. I mean, it's 2023 and they're acting like KZbin is a hot new platform that only the kids are using... KZbin... Not TikTok, KZbin. The Donkey Kong joke was really painful, namely when Chris was like "What universe does this take place in," and Peter is acting like Donkey Kong is a stand-alone game. They're making a joke about video games while apparently not knowing about any Mario game except Donkey Kong. It's just cringe.

[@thescarvedinsect]

0:20 Regarding Brian's claim to be in Generation X: In human years, Brian was 7 in 1999 (1992/Millennial,) 8 in 2010 (2002/Generation Z,) and 10 in 2021 (2011/Generation Alpha.) In dog years, he was 49 in 1999 (1950/Baby Boomer,) 56 in 2010 (1954/Baby Boomer,) and 70 in 2021 (1951/Baby Boomer.) Therefore, Brian is both too young _and_ too old to be in Generation X, and he's technically a Baby Boomer in dog years. I know this is _Family Guy_ we're dealing with, but it's still fun to call out Brian's BS.
