Hey, live and let live man. So long as both are consenting partners you should not object.

[Rose]

but he posted it here, which means he's not happy about it.

[Darvi]

Yeah, I'm definitely not consenting. I'd sue, but that'd require me to do more bureaucratic bullshit.

Abuse of power I tell ya!

[Aklyon]

Was he attacked by the bs, then?

[sonerohi]

Woke up at 3 a.m. today to find a spider had made my shoulder his chew toy during the night. Also during the night, those bites got infected. Add to this that I have poison ivy all over my legs. I am not happy in the slightest.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I just came to the realization that, over the past half-year or so, I have been brutally murdered in my dreams by almost everyone I know multiple times. That.....doesn't sound good to me.

[Karnewarrior]

My internet hates TF2.

Anti-dreaming is achieved by making sure you don't go to sleep before your brain shuts you down itself, like watching tv, all the silly flashing stupid commercials, your brain will be working hardcore to decipher and archive this shit long after your done watching, and doing so will make you "feint" instead of "sleep", which should keep dreams away.


Anyway, no idea if it is true or not(My folkschool teachers have proven through the years to've told me all kinds of crap), I didn't dream when I did this though.

This is probably why I rarely remember dreams.

I always go to bed when I pretty much can't keep awake anymore, anyway.

Because I've always been like this.  Even as a toddler, I would throw fits when my parents tried to put me to sleep.  I would keep going and going, always finding something to be thoroughly absorbed in, until I would spontaneously pass out.  Through my teenage years, I would go nights without sleep quite frequently, and two nights in a row without sleep wasn't too uncommon.

Since becoming a parent, I can't do this anymore.  All-nighters are near impossible for me today.  I've burned myself out.  It really does make me sad.

I think I've had a deep awareness from a very early age that there just isn't enough time to do all the things I want to do, and I'm not just talking about big important things.  I want to indulge in all the little things, too.  As a kid, I could be perfectly happy just wandering through the woods all day turning over rocks to see what I would find.  Today, I have an obsessive desire to read every book, play every game, etc to the point that I can't squeeze anymore worth out of them.  It's actually a serious problem, because I have trouble with priorities.  I get really frustrated with having all kinds of important things to do, and never getting to indulge my little explorations of the world, whether real, introspective, or fictional.

I also don't understand how people get bored.  I really don't.  The only times I'm ever bored are when I'm forced to act according to the demands of another... which really amounts to a lot... but most people seem the opposite -- they're bored when left to their own devices and can't figure out what to do with themselves.  This is so completely alien to me.

 When you dont have any obligations to others for long periods of time people tend to develop rhythems and patterns and schedules. They are usually based around whatever random stuff they find entertaining one day and easy to access. After a while you become attached enough to the pattern that doing other things is difficult. This is how one gets bored when left to their own devices. You need to do stuff for others to make you think about what you want to do. I imagine having a kid is the ultimate insperation in this respect.
 Then there are the productive bastards who develop schedules that are productive. Grrrr I hate those lucky guys.

[SalmonGod]

I've also always had a strong aversion to schedules and patterns in my lifestyle.

[Duke 2.0]

 Its sort of a weird mix of schedules and not caring about schedules though. If you set one up it can be very powerful. The ones that people set up though are based on any old random unproductive thing, so it doesnt work out. Its a very unconcious thing.

[Nadaka]

I was supposed to go play airsoft tomorrow. But I feel sick and don't think I can make the drive.

[ToonyMan]

I don't get bored and my solution is to always have an objective list.  What do you want to accomplish?  That's all it takes for me.

EDIT:
Also since is the sad thread I should mention I am having terrible trouble sleeping.  Last night I laid in bed for hoooooooours before falling asleep for half as long as I wanted to.

[ChairmanPoo]

Ive been sleeping badly the whole week. And underperforming asna result. (In partixular I have been under the "everything seems a copy of a copy of a copy" effect all week

[ToonyMan]

I have an obsessive desire to read every book, play every game, etc to the point that I can't squeeze anymore worth out of them.

Oh gog this is me.  Kill a series, move on, kill a series, move on, kill a series, move on.
