Yeah. I shouldn't really. I should staunch it out until proper bed time so that I'm tired and can drop off... but... y'know... I get home and the lure of the bed is just too much. Eyelids droopy... head so heavy... I so sleepy...

Jonas Undrawing · 25th February 2009, 16:49

nothing wrong with napping. I recommend it, for 30 mins or 2 hours. Maybe once a week. Makes a great difference.

Take an ovary suppressant while you're at it.

And, get your hard pants on. Take a walk down hard street.

So wish I could, but it fucks me over...

Home by 6pm, bed by 11pm - midnight. If I have a nap, I either don't get to sleep until 2-4am which is fucked when you HAVE to be out of bed by 6am to get to work on time.

I love rage-quits, but you suck at faking it.

I'm suffering from a manky disease that causes chronic fatigue. This means even if I get a full night's sleep I feel like I got too little. I'm a normal human being and need 8 hours to be at my best.

I couldn't cope at all on less sleep at the moment...in fact I'm not coping on less. I had a fight with a Postshop slapper today. Next time I use the Postshop site to work out exactly what I want and the cost I'm printing that fucker out and taking it with me, because she basically told me I was full of shit, though in a much more CSR-like way.

I need about 8hours sleep a night which is a lot. I managed to work my way down to sleeping 6hours a night but by Friday I'd be a wreck. So back up to 8 for me

It's not a lot. It's been pretty much established as the optimal time a human adult needs to sleep each day to operate at peak efficiency physically (immune response) and mentally (cognitive function). Anyone who says they need less is either a complete freak or has it wrong.

Add two hours for teens. Apparently they need 10 hours. Niiice

chiquelet · 26th February 2009, 12:46

Yep, teens need a crap load of sleep. I have an article somewhere that says exactly how much (slightly less than 10 hours I think), but the really important thing is that if teens get even 15 minutes less than their required sleep, their cognitive function is significantly worse for that day and they can't learn properly. Then you have young kids, babies etc who need a lot of sleep for brain development. Broken sleep is bad for their brains.

As for me, I need a min of 8 hours, ideally 9.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if a nuclear bomb goes off in your city? With Google's Maps framework and a bit of Javascript, you can see the outcome.

Oh if an Asteroid hits... well you take a look.

Fuck you mutants!

CCS · 27th February 2009, 00:38

Oh you think so? Gonna come here and suck in the rads that still linger after the place has been nuked? Whangarei still fine after Auckland nuked? The lols are on you buddy. Enjoy getting supplies sent to you by sea when you can no longer travel down south via Auckland! HAHAHAHA!

I remember seeing something on tv about a town in the US where they acknowledged the fact that teens need more sleep and find it difficult to get up for school. They changed the official school start time to something like 10-11am and found less truancy and better behaviour.. sounds like a good idea.

StN · 27th February 2009, 13:45

Wellington High School apparantly.

What does your link to "A boy and his dog" have to do with high school?

The thing I saw was definitely about a US school. I didn't realise they had tried it in NZ as well.

flic · 27th February 2009, 13:53

They need to harden up and get with the program. The real world doesn't get to wander into work at 11 cos it needs its sleepiebyes
