    If someone asked you...

    If someone were to ask you to drive them to a place one hour and a half away at 12am what would you say? Also compensation is guaranteed.

    I would say I agree 100%, but this also depends on if I went to sleep already before 12AM for some reason. If I'm asleep, hell no I'm not getting up, I barely want to walk to the bathroom when I wake up and I gotta pee.

    My bf at the time spontaneously asked if I wanted to go watch the meteor shower with him at 11pm, so I said sure. Because it was cloudy where we were, we drove 2 hours into Oklahoma, spent 30 min just sitting there talking and watching (and getting questioned by the cops as to why we were doing that xD), then 2 hours back at 3-4am. So far one of the best memories I have.

    If you guys want the non-hypothetical version...

    Buddy of mine is living in Wilmington in his apartment for the rest of the week, he's invited me down and of course I want to go, it's Wilmington for crying out loud. My car, however, is in the shop and I need a ride down there. So far I've nearly had a few people nearly say yes but they were caught off guard when I said right now or in the next day. I have to really ask you guys, would you really do it if someone messaged you at 12am?

    In that situation, if you and I were pretty tight and I didn't have anything else to do, sure I would. With such short notice though it'd probably be a slim chance I wasn't busy/sleeping for work or something.
    I'm waiting for my ruca

    well, it's only 1 hour and a half away. If it's a friend I'd do it if I was available.

    No. I'd get home by, at most, 3:30am. I'd be exhausted when I get home after driving like that, so if anything comes up in the morning or early afternoon I'd pretty much be unavailable (falling asleep, sleeping, takes me about an hour to fully wake up).

    Edited: I realized the answer to the first part of my reply.

    If it was dropped on me at 11:48pm I would say no. I like to do a little planning ahead. And the fact that you apparently knew about this and were telling people 'maybe in a day' seems like you're just being rude by saying "it's gotta be right now" even though you could wait a few days maybe. Especially if your friend isn't the coolest with the person who drives you. They'll just get stuck being the weird third wheel. At which point they're going to begrudge you.

    When you put it that way, it doesn't really seem like a big deal to me. Providing I was awake, not busy, and not going to sleep any time soon, sure, I guess so. Other than that, I'd take you whenever I woke up the next day.

    if i did not have to work the next day - then yes.

    but if i did - then no. i have to wake up at 6am... unless this was an absolute emergency like driving someone to a hospital etc.

    No, nothing good happens after midnight.

    I disagree, everything good happens after midnight :O

    OT: Really depends on who asks. If it's someone I know then it also depends on if I like said person enough. If it's someone I don't know, gender and looks might play a huge role... Hey, I said might! :P

    Might be a bit weird, I drive a motorcycle. If it's a chick, there's a chance.

    I've driven ~4 hours post-midnight to help my brother out (though I stayed there for like a week), so really it depends on the reason or my availability, but sure. I enjoy driving at night.

    I've occasionally done that kind of stuff for my little brother and mates as long as I don't have anything planned for the next morning.

    Depends on my relationship with the person. I can think of four people that I'd do so
    for in a heartbeat; everyone else? Let me sleep.
