I was curious: https://www.thecut.com/2014/08/sleep-hack-keep-one-foot-outside-your-covers.html
TL; DR: Our bodies cool down when sleeping, feet can help regulate temeprature, so we may be able to initiate sleep better/quicker using our feet to cool down.
There is no study in the article; it's speculation by "Natalie Dautovitch, a spokesperson for the National Sleep Foundation and a psychology professor at the University of Alabama".

I've noticed this when the nights get hot here - having my feet outside the blankets and in the path of the fan helps a great deal with not overheating.
-
It really helps I find. The warmer it is the more I expose. Generally something like
- foot
- feet
- leg
- arm over cover
- more leg
- back open to air
- upper torso
- entire torso
- legs
- nethers

The tickle monster desires a sacrifice
-
TIL Deathclaw's can develop a foot fetish
-
I lift my legs and do a blanket fold so the foot fetish monster can't mess with my feet.
-
This is the way. And I sleep HOT. I will uncover my whole body and leave my feet covered. I cannot sleep with uncovered feet
-
-
I always keep at least a leg outside the covers, no matter how cold it is. I couldn't bear to be completely covered, I get too hot. Under normal conditions I don't use covers at all.
-
You ARE too hot
-
Ugh I love being absolutely loaded up with covers from toes to chin, but yes it can't be on a hot summer's day with no AC.
Love me a good cold winter's night with the windows wide open and the floor fan blasting wind right into my face though.
-
I get the feeling our winters are not the same. This would kill me lol

Fuck no. Cold feet keep me awake

When you think monster is about to grab your foot and drag you to hell, and your first thought is "great! Now I don't have to go to work tomorrow."
-
Probably means either:
A - Quit your job and find a new one.
B - Realize that our current economic system is deeply flawed and embrace going to hell.-
It's from a Tim Robinson skit
What you said is still true, but this shit is funny and relevant so I thought you might enjoy it

It's crazy how weak monsters are to blankets
-
how it feels typing with long nails
I got bored during a lecture and got on nitrotype and I got like a 30% debuff in words per minute
-
Might be a good hack for getting out of bed in the morning.
-
I gave up on all the pro-tips and just rip a sniff of smelling salts in the morning now. It's not pleasant but it's very effective

I've recently become alright with sleeping without any covers at all. I've had issues with night sweating as a side effect of medication for several years and this summer has been so damn hot that I just gave up and tried sleeping nude without covers, and it's really nice! Just the thought of this made me uncomfortable before trying it and it took a few nights before getting past the mental barrier but I'm glad I did it.

I have always cold feet, no way hell I'll keep my feet outside the blanket
I'm opposite entirely. My feet are so hot and I almost always sleep with them outside the covers.
Hey everybody, if this person ever invites you to a sleepover, say no, they're a demon and they're definitely going to eat your feet.
Hot feet team raise your hands
I keep them out as a thermal regulator
