The intellectual evolution we all pretend to experience! Your brain on "nocturnal" is just basic night-mode, while "diurnal" activates a few more neurons for daytime functioning. But drop "crepuscular" (active at dawn/dusk) at a party and suddenly you're the smart one. Then comes the ultimate flex—"cathemeral" (active irregularly throughout day AND night)—and your brain literally starts shooting enlightenment beams. Nothing says "I'm scientifically superior" like casually mentioning your cathemeral sleep schedule while everyone else is stuck on "I'm a night owl." Biology vocabulary: the original intellectual flex.
