WOW, you guys sure haven't really had a reason to stay up then have you? I have stayed up for 60-78 (personal max=78) a few times and stay up for 48 hours prolly once a month. btw, one of you said that 48 hours is 4 days and ....unless your clock speed is different in your country..... it is two days.

Sorry if that brings you down but I am like a little kid...afraid I am missing out on stuff when i am asleep, I also look at sleep as wasted time that I need to get stuff done...like a goal on a game or reading books, or working on a school projecr...or dialogue of people around me in rl. I only get sick when I stay up longer than 50some hours. I was up from 5 a.m. thursday until 4 p.m. yesterday.... saturday....so that was about 59 hours...and I woke up sick and sore because I had fallen down some stairs at one point and had been carrying about 20 pounds of tea with me to a finals' test. I am all better now though I never, ever stay sick longer than a day, not in years and years anyway.

Why do people bother to stay up that long...it only gets you into trouble...you it have been proved that you can mess up your entire sleeping programs.

Ok, now I'm really ashamed here.. How could I say that 48 hours was 4 days? I need to come up with a good excuse for that horrific statement.. especially when I've said in the "Your Stats!" post that I have 100 intelligence .

Oh well, guess I just wasn't thinking.. And now that I DO think I realise that 47 hours can't be my record.. I remember my record being one hour away from 4 days, wich should be 95 hours... Now, that makes more sense! Now I do beat you all in staying awake for longest . (And now I understand why my brain was complaining so much)...

And yeah, we had tons of reasons to stay awake, why spoil the fun by sleeping?

...You all are dumb...

Sleep is good.. Maybe thats why I look as good as I do.

BTW I did the math in english class (I was bored) and I slept like 57% of the summer. Sure it was a waiste of time, but I was well rested. Hehe, I could of single handedly built a house in that amount of time...

I did the calculations on my computer, you could make a medium size house, two thatch-roof cotteges and seven outhouses with that time. Comgratulations, you have the starting of a villa!

I played the game Black a few days ago, and was unimpressed. It was Project Snowblind (terrible game) with some physics and interaction. I guess I may have disliked it because I play so many good games, or because I beat games so fast, or maybe its because EA pumped out another game that doesn't break the mould, but simply puts icing on the cookie.

Anyways, I'm off to eat freedom Cresents.

And I´ll be off to Germany tomorrow morning! Take care while I´m away huh!!!!!

Ah! have fun Minky!

I don't usually stay up late to offten.... thanks to my all-opressive parents. They claim that they are doing it becasue its good for me but I know better, its a consiricy(if I can spell it right..)

Conspiracy, I think. And yep, you're parents are part of a massive conspiracy also involving Elvis, aliens from outer space, Area 51, Microsoft, NASA, and Spongebob Squarepants, entirely devoted to making you go to sleep early. Umm...*thinks of something that sounds more conspiracy-ish* Because...you are our only hope. Help us, Soulseeker Kenobi, you are our only hope. And..um...if you go to sleep early, you...um..*yoda voice* connect to the force, you will not, if sleep if early you do.

My parents have never really cared when I went to sleep. Or at least, my dad didn't/doesn't. His primary concern with my sleep habits is that I'm able to wake up in time to go to school. That's it. Because he has similar sleep patterns to me, we can both live on two hours of sleep a night. He's been like that since he was a kid, so he kinda knows that I'll live. Besides, what else is math class for? My mom cares a bit more than him, but not too much. She figures that she can make me eat crow pie when I collapse from exhaustion while crossing the road during rush hour, so she leaves me alone about how and when I sleep. (and that is the reason she cares in the first place, it's a chance to prove me wrong ) Besides, there isn't too much she could do about it, we live in different houses. So I tend to stay up "late" quite a bit, my usual sleep habit (when it's an option, like on weekends or vacations) is to stay up till the sun's in the sky, then sleep as long as I feel like, be it an hour or untill midnight.

@Channler- Well, think about it this way. Not sleeping is only dumb if you go beyond the level your body can handle. Yes, doing that (especially on purpose, especially on a regular basis) is stupid. But if your body can live on, say, six hours of sleep a night, then doing that isn't stupid. Your body needs sleep for two reasons. Energy, and to sort through the things that happen to you. Well, energy can be replenished in other ways, and some people's minds are just naturally better at sorting the things that occur in their life, and they don't need to sleep as much. And some people are just so busy they need to get more hours out of the day. Those hours can come from two places...something else that you are doing, or your sleeping time. As long as you don't cut too many hours out of it, then cutting back on getting too much sleep works pretty well. The key is moderation. (so yes, I'm an idiot, but some of these people here aren't ) Time spent sleeping can be put efficiently to other purposes...like wasting time doing absolutely nothing.

hah...Kindred you sound like a freakin star wars fan...like myself ...I like that.

Again you have made your post look more like a Novel...rather than a post :briggin., but dont get me wrong...it's always entertaining to read your posts, they always have somethin to enjoy...

OK...I admit it...I use smilies quite a lot...

Star wars fan? Whatever gave you that impression? The Yoda voice? "Be decieved by the dark side do not, come easy imitations do." Yep, I'm a Star Wars fan. I've seen all of the movies and read a lot of the books. (maybe most of them, I'm not sure) However, I know someone IRL who is a much bigger Star Wars fanatic than I am...he can quote all of the movies...verbatim....in the actors voices...including sound effects... One of my friends, it's a bit scary honestly. He's a jock, and if you met him, you'd never guess...and his arms are as big around as my head...he could probably benchpress my whole family at the same time.


You're not the first to note that. It's become a running joke between myself and some of my friends. Like, if they forget something I've written (with the ammount I write, it happens a lot), I forgive them on the grounds that "they can't be expected to remember every novel they've read." Lol.

I try not to post unless I have something to say, so a lot of my posts are long for that reason. I'm catching up on all the typing I've missed. Also, I just type fast, and with a reasonably high accuracy, so I don't need to spend too much time on my posts. And the funny stuff just comes out naturally...like it's trying to escape or something... *worries about one day when all the funniness gets out*

There's nothing wrong with using smilies too much....unless you can no longer speak to normal people other than online, because you can't convey your emotions without them...at that point, it changes from smiley use to smiley abuse. And it's considered an addiction, and the government will make you go to rehab.

Then again, as a t-shirt saying I once saw put it, "Rehab is for quitters."

I had to take the smiley's out because I quoted your post...

Hello all..here´s greetings from the cold, snowy town called Stade...which I love very much. I´m sitting in my favourite internet-cafe thinking of you guys. The professional part of my journey ended this afternoon, so from thenit´s HOLIDAY!! YAYYY.....

Be well all and take care
minkey

So, I need a new keyboard. My keyboard has this slider thing under the desk I roll out, and last night I was lighting things on fire in my room, and I look over and see the slider is in FLAMES. Chunks of plastic are dripping off like wax. The keyboard seemed fine at the time if only a little ashy but on further inspection my damned Delete key doesn't work so I can't do CTRL-ALT-DELETE anymore and save my boat.

Thanks minkey....we will....here have a made it myself...

*serves all round*

That's why I only set things on fire outside. Just need to be careful to stay away from prying eyes.

I've got extra keyboards, though...one that I actually use, three that are just sitting around, and one that I'm using as a doorstop...and that's not counting my dad's backups or his good keyboard...

@Tellie- I'll have cake, please and thank you very much.

I knew it....

So (if you don't mind me changing the subject) What all you guy's working on at the moment? project or writing wise?

I'm *trying* to write a story thing. (going pretty well actually... 15 or something pages in a notebook)

Mmmm, Fire.. Now that is so much stoopid fun its crazy...

Oh, and I never ment to call anyone dumb, I was just being a lil sarcastic if you get meh drift.

Anyways, those Zboard keyboards are awesome... till you spill a tiny bit o' water on them.. then they give hell worse then da devil.

omg, I'm bored..

erg my b!@#$ of a teacher gave me an Egyptian project over spring break to do so this gives me lee time to play Oblivion. I think im gonna go get some gasoline go to my school and burn it down

heh, yeah I'm going to hope my dad doesn't notice until i get a new keyboard. And Kindred Spirit, I light things on fire... generally. used to just be something I did outside but then I got really into 'Jane and started lighting things on fire... anywhere. It was so random that my keyboard slighter lit on fire though.

Oh....doomed why put things of fire.... ...they...burn

But yes what can i say...i somehow managed to wreck my television...so now i cant watch anything .

Oh...looks like this one will be closed soon

@Channler- Sorry, didn't catch the sarcasm...maybe I should get a new baseball glove...

@Tellie- That's the primary reason to set things on fire...because they burn. Same goes for people, places, and animals. (especially people and animals, they taste good with gravy)

How'd you break your tv?

@Doomed- Eh. I can't burn things inside. My house is primarily made of wood, with some concrete and brick in there. But mostly wood. Have you ever heard the expression, "Men who live in glass houses should not throw rocks?" Well, the same goes for, "Men who live in wooden houses should not start fires."

Your keyboard was obviously inferior. Natural selection at it's finest, see? Maybe your next keyboard will possess less undesirable traits and have a family of little keyboards.
