Ain’t no way I’m sleeping until I check!

This is a 4-panel relatable comic meme that illustrates a very common experience of bedtime overthinking and anxiety about scheduled plans. In the first panel, an anthropomorphic cartoon brain reminds the woman going to sleep that she has a dental appointment at 10 the next day, telling her not to forget. In the second panel, the woman replies calmly that she already remembered and set an alarm for 8 o'clock. In the third panel, the brain suddenly asks the worrying, unplanned question: 'AM or PM?'. The final panel shows the woman now fully awake in the dark, staring with shocked wide eyes, unable to fall asleep until she checks what time the appointment actually is, matching the meme's title.
