When you're running on fumes, you're not always in the right state of mind to make decisions. If you don't even have the energy to stand up, you probably don't have the energy to think rationally. Exhaustion-Induced Idiocy tends to be the result. This occurs for a number of reasons. The victim might be suffering from Sleep Deprivation for whatever reasons, they been out in the blazing sun for too long and are potentially suffering heat stroke, they may be Working Through the Cold, or they've worked so hard that they have completely drained all their energy. In any case, their judgement is so hazy that they end up making some rather questionable decisions. This usually manifests in at least one of four ways: Forgetfulness: The victim fails to remember important information or even basic common sense. Usually, it is some sort of seemingly innocuous, but ultimately very crucial detail that slips their mind. Things they would have very little trouble recalling if they were more alert. Delusion: Their thought processes are so clouded that they end up believing things that they normally wouldn't. This can also include hallucinations and paranoia. This symptom is especially Truth in Television regarding Sleep Deprivation. It could be considered Exhaustion-Induced Insanity. Confused Logic: They may have all the pieces of information to work with, but their train of thought takes a detour (or several) causing a disorganized approach to logic. May result in Skewed Priorities or even Insane Troll Logic. Too Tired to Think: The victim literally does not have enough energy to spare to even try to think straight. They may not pay attention to important details because of this. These four symptoms can often overlap and may even play into others. The end result is the person acting or thinking in a way that they normally wouldn't. Usually at the cost of common sense. It can be something as small as putting salt in their coffee instead of sugar, or something major like accidentally selling off a company because they weren't paying attention. When the victim recovers from this exhaustion, you can probably expect them to reflect on their terrible mistakes and think It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time. Compare Alcohol-Induced Idiocy, Blinded by Rage, Fury-Fueled Foolishness, Heroic RRoD, Fear-Induced Idiocy, and Worf Had the Flu. May result in Too Desperate to Be Picky when someone is so hungry that they'll eat something they probably shouldn't or Fell Asleep Driving if the person is operating a vehicle, often leading to tragedy. Contrast with Heroic BSoD and Angst Coma, which result from emotional exhaustion instead. |

Adventure Time: In "Goliad", Princess Bubblegum is loopy and spaced-out after being up for 83 hours straight working on the creation of Goliad, a nigh-immortal candy sphinx with incredible intelligence and psychic powers who will serve as a back-up ruler in case anything happens to the Princess. Thus, she rather unwisely trusts Finn and Jake to teach Goliad to be a good leader while she goes and takes a nap. Finn and Jake proceed to accidentally teach Goliad that Might Makes Right and turn her into a tyrant. | |

Avatar: Legend of the Guardian: All of Team Avatar suffers it during "The Chase." When they discover Min's true identity as Xia, Zuko's twin sister, they violently reject her and depart. Once they manage to get some sleep and have some time to think things over, with help from Toph, it's clear they would have been more willing to hear her out and listen to what she had to say had Azula not been chasing them and running them ragged for two days solid. | |

Bones: In "The Twist In the Twister", Angela and Hodgins' son won't sleep, preventing them from sleeping, resulting in her trying to use a yogurt-shop discount card instead of her security pass, and him seriously considering putting a carseat on top of a vertical wind tunnel. Anything to get the baby to sleep. | |

Dexter: "Living the Dream" gets a Special Edition Title that shows Dexter, badly sleep-deprived from his infant son, bungling every step of his Morning Routine. It's then Played for Drama when he mishandles a court case. In the next episode, he falls asleep while driving and forgets where he hid his latest victim's body parts. | |

The Simpsons: Apu once worked for four straight days at the Kwik-E-Mart without sleep. By the end of it he thought he was a hummingbird. There's videotape evidence of that. Homer (who's already stupid) is sleep-deprived because his baby daughter Maggie is keeping him awake at night and he mistakes Maggie for Marge (his wife) and Lisa (his eldest daughter) for Maggie. |

In the Miraculous Ladybug fanfic Sleep Is For The Weak, Marinette and Adrien have been run ragged and are dead on their feet. This leads to Adrien's perfect persona slipping, and he starts making cat puns during class. Marinette, half-awake, hears Chat Noir's voice making cat puns, thinks they're both in costume, and screams about how she's going to skin him alive and wear him as a coat. Then she passes out. The rest of the class is made even more confused when Adrien, now wide awake from her outburst and able to put two-and-two together, just smiles and kisses her forehead in response, now knowing she's Ladybug. | |

Stand Still, Stay Silent: This is implied to be a factor is some of the poor decisions made by Lalli in Chapter 8 of Adventure I, during which he's explicitly doing a morning scouting shift after pulling an all-nighter and performing a magical ritual for the dog beast from the previous chapter. | |

What the Fuck Is Wrong with You?: Numerous episodes feature Nash and Tara being sent news stories in which businesses were conned into playing along with very obvious pranks or outright scams - to the point that the boss of a fast-food restaurant ordered his entire workforce to break every single window in the building for fear of a nonexistent gas leak. Tara wonders why none of the employees would question the logic of this decision, while Nash points out that the employees were minimum wage workers so beaten down by the long hours that they didn't have the will to do anything but follow orders. | |

Freefall: Relentless Triple Shifter Bill Raibert hasn't been too affected by this despite the sheer sleep deprivation he goes through, but he knows the risks and is in a hurry to try and solve things before he can fall into a dumb mistake that a two-hour nap could've avoided. And even then he sometimes catches himself on the verge of it. Niomi cautions a worn-out and confused Mr de Morel that instead of chasing down Sam in his current state, he should go and get some sleep, because people who catch up to Sam in that state tend to regret it. |

The Suite Life on Deck: When the gang locks themselves in the engine room to stop the ship from running into a pod of whales moving by, Moseby tells them that they're going to be left without air-conditioning — something that takes a toll on all of them. As the heat rises during their sit-in, Marcus gets so hungry and exhausted that he falls for London's obvious ploy to get in by pretending to be a pizza delivery guy. She successfully gets in, but since it was London, she didn't really have a plan on getting them out of the engine room. | |

Nero Wolfe: In the short story "Murder Is Corny", Archie is exhausted after having been up for 30 hours. He needs to have a conversation with Susan, and suggests to Wolfe that he have the conversation elsewhere, but Wolfe offers the use of the office. Archie Lampshades the fact that if he hadn't been so exhausted, he would have realized that Wolfe intended to eavesdrop on the conversation. | |

In addition, her sleep-deprived mind ends up giving Master Fu's kwamis macaroons with power-up potions rather than normal sweets, revealing she's a gifted potion maker as well. | |

Sword Art Online Abridged: Unlike in canon, Kayaba's plan was ultimately boiled down to how sleep-deprived he was after working three weeks without so much as a wink of sleepnote which would be long enough to kill someone to finish Sword Art Online. The game was Christmas Rushed and he needed to get it done after already being delayed twice. Thus, he busted his ass to get it ready for release. Unfortunately, this resulted in causing a glitch that killed the players when their avatars died, and Kayaba's mind was still in shambles when he was trying to think of a way to fix it after people started dying from it. | |

Since she's tired after working on her school projects and being kept up at night by her sick sister, her friends assume this trope is in play and that she just needs to get some rest. Turns out, Ponnie is real and is deliberately trying to make it look like Tori is crazy. | |

Cat Hairballs: Stimpy is being used to farm hairballs via licking "fuel" off of various body parts then hwarfing the results onto a conveyor belt, where the hairballs are then stamped by Ren. Though Stimpy is high energy at first, all the licking and hwarfing proves to be extremely physically taxing. By the end, Stimpy has been completely licked clean and is completely burnt out from it all, which results in Stimpy jumping on the conveyor belt and trying to hwarf one more time. Resulting in passing out on said conveyor belt and getting brutally stamped on the ass. | |

Makes a couple of appearances in M*A*S*H: In Season 2's "Dr. Pierce and Mr. Hyde", Hawkeye has been operating for so long that he is unable to sleep. Among his exhaustion-induced ideas are shipping a latrine to North Korea and sending a telegram to President Truman reading "Who's responsible?". In Season 4's "The Late Captain Pierce", Radar is on R&R because of overwork, leading to actions such as putting carbon paper in the latrines. |

Star Trek: Lower Decks: In "Temporal Edict" Captain Freeman learns of the existence of "buffer time" (crew members padding their estimates of how long it takes to get things done). Furious at people apparently slacking off, she enacts a new policy in which everyone must perform back-to-back tasks in the minimum amount of time. Within a week, everyone (except Boimler, perhaps the biggest workaholic on the Cerritos) is exhausted from overwork and making stupid mistakes, one of which causes a diplomatic incident and an invasion by hostile aliens with the crew too tired to fight back. | |

Red vs. Blue: In Season 15, Wash is completely exhausted and loopy after days of being locked in his armor by Temple without receiving food or water. He is generally disconnected from reality during that time and says many things that he wouldn't in a clearer head. This also leads to him walking out in the middle of gunfire without a care in the world, ending with him getting shot in the neck. | |

Max Damage from Irredeemable and its sister series Incorruptible becomes stronger and tougher the longer he stays awake (resetting to human-normal when he sleeps). Since sleep deprivation and stimulant drugs affect him the same way they affect anyone else, his judgment and mental acuity are at their lowest when his powers are at their highest. | |

The Revenge of the Sith novelization explains Anakin Skywalker's poor decision-making and paranoia from the film as the result of sleep deprivation. Because Anakin sees the same vision of Padmé dying every time he sleeps, he stops sleeping altogether and uses the Force to sustain himself. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: In "Fear of a Krabby Patty", Plankton tries to Invoke this by baiting Mr. Krabs into staying open 24 hours a day in order to exhaust Spongebob enough for him to spill the formula. Mr. Krabs takes the bait, but even after 10 days Spongebob is none the worse for wear. Plankton increases the pressure by placing a telephone order for 10,000 Krabby Patties under the name "Peter Lankton" (this trope probably being to blame for Mr. Krabs falling for that), and after 33 days of working on that order, Spongebob snaps to having a phobia of Krabby Patties and hallucinating everyone as a talking Patty. | |

In an episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy, Edd stays up all night building a model, and when Ed and Eddy (and many of the other kids) try to use his brain, they find too late that said brain wasn't firing on all cylinders with the advice he gave them. | |

Jack-Jack Attack: During the latter half of The Incredibles, Kari has to babysit Jack-Jack. However, this is when he develops his powers. By the next day, she is completely exhausted and sleep-deprived. When Syndrome comes along to take Jack-Jack, Kari believes he's the replacement babysitter and his lie that the "S" on his suit means "sitter." She hands Jack-Jack off to him without question simply because she's tired and desperate to get away from the baby. When Agent Dicker quips about how stupid that was, Kari angrily retorts with the understandable justification that she had to sit for an "exploding baby", which was a thoroughly draining experience. | |

Brockton's Celestial Forge: Joe calls it "3 a.m. thinking", because if you are still awake when you need to sleep you will be more prone to making stupid decisions. | |

Not Always Working: The last two lines of this story imply that the clerk was too sleep-deprived from overwork to understand that the submitter wasn't buying alcohol or cigarettes, only that they didn't want to show ID (because they didn't need to). | |
