Night And Day
A phrase used to describe a stark difference between two things. Similar to day and night, except it implies an improvement of the situation rather than a deterioration.

Republican: "Actually it's been day and night. George W. Bush was the man."
Independent: "You're both wrong. It's been night and night. Both parties are corrupt as hell."
Libertarian: "No, I'd say it's been more of dusk and twilight."
Left-leaning moderate: "You're crazy. It's totally been dusk and dawn."
Normal person: "Seriously guys, shut up."

Night Is The New Day
A term I use. I often stay up much later than I should (At the time i'm writing this it is 6am and I have had no sleep since the night before.) I use it and am agreed with by other friends that stay up late.

Practically nocturnal, it means that people who stay up really late do so because they love staying awake through the night, thus saying for these people that night is the time when they do things most do in the day. It also mean that they may wish that everyone did what people normally do in day was done at night instead.

Jamie: Nobody is ever online at this time.
Tash: Yeah I know
Jamie: I hate going to sleep early in the night. I love the night, I wish I was nocturnal.
Tash: That'd be sooo cool!
Jamie: Yeah, Night is the new Day!
