I agree, it's pretty much self-explanatory, but where did it come from, what are the origins — when was the first use of this expression registered in classic literature? E.g. five o'clock tea is a British tradition… Which reminds me that in the past I used to hang out with my colleagues on weekends, have a few beers and maybe something else, we often carried on through the whole night, so it's like a party themed that way. State of 3 AM, but with social interactions.
And we have culturally appropriated the 5 o'clock tea even! Except of course you were supposed to have it at five in the morning
Erik Satie's music conveys that atmosphere very well — or at least that's what we used to listen to having that tea

Might be wired in, there are old superstitions about that time of night. You can almost take your pick: nocturnal predatory animals, biphasic sleep patterns, whatever. If you find anything concrete, I'd be very interested.

@p @m0xEE @Hyolobrika Your body detoxes different organs on cron jobs every night, the same schedule every day, with normal sleep patterns your liver flushes at 3am, which usually causes the most toxic releases and often causes people to wake up when too stressed. One of the many reasons important to go to sleep early and keep regular schedule.
Also important regarding sleep, never take vitamin D at night. It tricks your body into thinking it is say time and messes up patterns, like light at night.

@Hyolobrika @m0xEE It's when weird shit happens, it kinda stuck in my head since me yoof. (Entirely possible that the sound clip at the beginning of the first level of "Turtles in Time" cemented it. I put a lot of quarters into that machine.) And then once it's there in your head, you start noticing more often when it crops up. So Twitter started asking for people's locations and I just shoved that into the field.
And then, you know, obviously this happened:
