It's called hypocrisy.

Answer 4

Don't let that bother you.

You do what you want.

No man can tell me go to bed or not go to bed; I am on my own.

Because I'm a man!!!

Don't let any one push you down and try to control your life.

This is your life.

Be happy.

Answer 5

Maybe they're simply from different parts of the world??

Answer 6

How about 2:04? I'll be up till the sun rises, though :) It's funny, I almost asked the same question a minute ago.

I'm a writer and an artist, and being eccentric, it's hard for people like me to sleep when an idea is at the tip of the pencil.

Answer 7

I DO BELIEVE that this is a friendly social attempt to share an experience which they themselves can not, at times, explain making the experience something you have in common.

More than likely it is meant to be a humorous banter, and a mute question.

It is a way of saying:

"I AM NOT UP LATE, IT IS YOU THAT ARE UP LATE", humorlessly.

OR!  They may simply be curious why you are up late.  They already know why they are, yes?   :-)

Compare the mindset:

"MY FATHER IS BIGGER THAN YOUR FATHER"

Etc.

Answer 8

I'm definitely a night owl on the weekends, 4:30 a.m. is about my normal bedtime.  When I have to get up and go to work though, I'm more likely to get to bed around midnight.  Just can't work a full day on 2 hours of sleep.

Answer 9

I don't know, but this is intriguing. Why WOULD anyone ask that?
