I remember this being told in old joke books, but this is also a good version of it.

Riddle from Reddit 9 years ago:

A man went out drinking all night. He came home and before going to sleep he turned off the light. He awoke the next morning and went outside, and there were dead people all around. What happened? Yes or no questions please :) Good luck!

Did he live in Manhattan and was it 9/11?

He lives in the back of a cyanide factory and in his drunken stupor accidentally hit the emergency release switch instead.

In the event of an emergency, release the cyanide that will kill everyone.

Makes sense.

Dude... harsh.

Not unwarranted, but harsh.

I should have added that he would also be wearing crocs and half-calf white socks.

If you walk with the sun in your back, it is unwarranted.

This should be in the training manual for all lighthouse keepers.

There is, but it normally gets lost in shipping.

A nightmare awakes me, blinking light!
There's no guide, blind ships in the night.
Oh blood red moon, eat away the night.
Darkness covers my lonely soul,
No one to feed the dying light...
