I fully believe that we are some type of "offshoot" of what is considered "normal people." Like instead of waking up in the morning we are awake at night. Why? To keep watch? We need more energy at night to fend of the dark monsters for those people who sleep all day. Or maybe to hunt food or animals that are nocturnal. So while half the tribe is asleep the other half is awake, and we all take care of each other.

Then this whole "society" thing came along and they made all these rules like "people should be awake during the day whether they like it or not." And instead of hunting, we're making "money" the imaginary value maker. Instead of a spear, now you need $30.

Just like I totally believe the theory that people with high anxiety were necessary back then because, "Hey, did you hear that twig snap? Could be a bear. Let's run like hell!" Except now it's "OMG I'm in the grocery store! Run!" You see... it doesn't make sense now, but back then it did.
