As someone who does need 8 hours I can't help but be jealous of those who function on 6. If I only get 6 hours of sleep I can't even see straight all day.

Don't be. Hell I can "function" with my shoes tied together.

I can "function" with some marijuana and some whiskey in my system.

I can "function" on 4 hours of sleep. It's an awful day and I'm more rude and impatient, but if I did it for years I'd be telling people I can fully function on 4 hours with no negative side effects.

Shower-thought: Maybe the problem to many people being assholes is just not getting enough sleep?

I get like 8-9 hours of sleep and I’m still an asshole

This is absolutely the case for many (though not all).

Now notice that the current US President has been severely sleep deprived every day for decades.
