It’s Time To Get Up

Jed is 15. Fifteen year old boys are hard to wake up. They want to stay in their caves. Generally, waking Jed up goes something like this:

Me: Jed, it’s time to wake up.

Jed: …

Me: Jed. It’s tiiiiiime to waaaaaaaaake uuuuuuuuuuuup!

Jed: I KNOW!

<10 minutes passes>

Me: Jeeeeee…

Jed: I! KNOW!!!!!!!

<more time passes>

Me: JED! Get up NOW.

Jed: I’M! GETTING! UP!

I wonder if there might not be a better way…
