workingman's curse

It is a condition that causes one to wake up before the alarm clock 7 days a week regardless if one has to work that day or not.
Cure:
Retirement.
I've been working for 8 hours/ 5 days a week for so long my internal clock has gotten the workingman's curse. I go out and party late Friday and Saturday and I still wake at 6:30 am on Saturday and Sunday, just like M-F.

2 words, WAKE UP. And if you're in school, GET WORKING. And if you're like me, YEET ON!:

This word means when an epic lad like Pineapple motivates his fellow friends to do what their supposed to be doing.

It could also mean, when kisser of sisters cat, is having a bad day. And then all of the sudden the most respectable man, aka Pineapple says some random crap.
Kisser of the cats having a bad day

Pineapple: 2 words, WAKE UP. And if you're in school, GET WORKING. And if you're like me, YEET ON!

Kisser of the cats: Thanks Pineapple, you really motivated me to get my stuff done.

Penguin: Why?
