Jon Bernthal issues an apology over his aggressive anti-napping stance: “I got nothing against you if you nap… I just don’t really do that & I don’t really have time for it. I feel like you probably, I’m sorry, I feel like you probably do have something better to do than nap, but I’m sorry.”

    maybe he wouldn’t have had to go on an apology tour if he had a nap instead of sticking his foot in his mouth.

    naps are great.

    ETA: i don’t have time for naps either because i have an insanely intense job and a ton of thnigs I have to juggle in personal life but forcing myself to take a quick 20 min nap, even if i only close my eyes for that duration, is a great recharger and burnout prevention tactic. Sometimes you just gotta step away when you’re exhausted and mentally slamming your head against a wall. Not for everyone and I certainly don’t judge people who don’t subscribe to it.

    ETA2:that was a pretty shitty apology because he clearly doesn’t mean it.

    ETA3: Fun Fact: his real life background is kinda fancy. He’s like Giamatti-lite. For example, his brother is married to Sheryl Sandberg. the other is an orthopedic surgeon (and lol—if you saw the last episode of The Pitt, you will understand why i keep visualizing Park the Shark)

    He’s my partner’s “I’m not sure why I hate that guy, but I hate that guy” actor. This anti-napping stance explains it, my partner lives for naps and probably picked up on it subconsciously.

  3. I hate naps. They really affect my sleep at night, and I’d rather spend my time doing something else. But I have the sense not to tell people what to do with *their* time.

    As if you’re optimising every minute of your time on earth, Jon Bernthal. You seem to have time to talk nonsense about how you are too busy to nap, just like my colleagues who talk for 20 MINUTES about how they don’t get a minute to themselves.

    I’m all for a goofy low stakes “scandal”

    I’m also anti nap though so maybe I just agree with him

  6. I have a love-hare relationship with naps. I feel like they make me feel amazing at the time but I wake up feeling even more tired and drained.

    Oh my fucking goodness, I thought the video was being funny and tongue in check but no, there’s actual human beings that are upset about this.

    The comment saying “I guarantee he doesn’t allow his wife to nap” and the other one saying “there’s sick people who will literally die without naps” I want you to really look deep and reflect on how absurd you sound. The world is so maddening you really don’t need to nitpick so much to find something to point your anger towards.

    I have narcolepsy, so I have learnt that a lot of people have pretty negative responses to seeing other people sleep during daytime, especially in public.

    Also if nobody is so busy they can’t and shouldn’t chill for like 15 minutes at least every day.

    You can take the naps out of my cold, dead hands. I died from the lack of naps.

  10. Think that instead of apologizing for naps, he should be apologizing for being a zionist

  11. I can’t nap because I wake up unsure where I am or which century I’m in. I’m unsure if I’m in a Rip Van Winkle situation, having slept through the decade. I’m never left refreshed, only confused

    I remember when my disease didn’t make me nap immediately as soon as I wasn’t involved in something. And sometimes even if I was supposed to be!

    He signs bombs to be dropped on Palestinian children instead on taking short a nap.
