Going without sleep: how long and why?
Posts
Nope, only time it ever happened. I did a 36 hours awake, 12 hours asleep, repeat, schedule for that semester though. I would go to school, homework all that night, go to work in the morning, and then sleep until noon the next day (which I would have off).
EDIT: I never really played any online shooters or MMOs, combination of always having a crappy computer and never really getting into the genres.
hahaha, that would be nice. We get a 10% shift differential for doing it, so that's the incentive. Plus with my wife working days and our shifts totally offsetting we save a shit-ton in daycare.
But yeah, I'll probably be dead the day after I'm old enuff to retire.

Those are the worst hours to get into because they're SO EASY to maintain.
Try this sometime:
if you have a swivel chair, start spinning around on it for a couple minutes, sitting normally with eyes closed. Then, lean forward and tilt your head to the side while spinning, eyes still closed. Depending on which direction you tilt your head, it feels like you're either falling downward or upward
Sprinting to the finish line, winning while your heart stops, your work well done.
Like some kind of sleepless samurai code.
can i come hang out in that room and just sleep the entire time
i'm sure i could do about half that. i'll have a go this summer
I love your sig
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
i was so addicted to wow
Insomnia, in general, although a couple of those were caused by attending batshit crazy parties.
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
He had a 3+ hour conversation with something that crawled out from the same couch.
I do love military experiments
I think I sleep 4 or 5 hours a day anymore it's hard to break the cycle
But would I do it again? For the money, yes.
However, I have spent thirty-six hours baling hay. There was a hurricane-driven series of thunderstorms coming that were going to dump buckets of rain on us, and we had two sections of alfalfa on the ground. We ate our meals while refueling the tractors. Ended up putting up around 2500 round bales. It sucked mightily.
so years from now you will know what key you used for Curse of Agony?
sucked
yeah but there's all kinds of things you'd do for the money
i remember every hotkey i had
My voice teacher gave me some great adivce: Don't turn down a paying job you idiot
haha you're a farmer
Voice teacher? What do you do?
I've been waiting for the cliche fantasy plot to kick in for years.
Lazy-ass dark lords need to hurry up and manifest my goddamn destiny already.
Forget the support group with pillows and such, we just need to form a samurai clan based on this edict.
Or ninjas, either one.

I wish. I've got a harvest that's been sitting for more than two months and it is almost ready to go.
Gotta outlast Polago and that other guy who hasn't been around for a while still.
...which it turns out is a completely archaic british expression none of you will have heard of meaning feeling asleep involuntarily for short periods of time. I once completed a game in a fugue while trying to stay awake.
since when is catnapping a british expression?
I assumed it was because google only finds entries for it meaning "to steal a cat"
I had to be straight working something like 18-20 hours a day
for three weeks
it was hella intense
