Title: Kipping.
Post by: GROWLER on October 13, 2012, 08:48:16 PM
Just been 'avin' a moan about it.

I know you can't beat a damned good kip like, but really, what an absolute waste of precious time though ey?

Why couldn't we have been designed not to need it.
We'd all have an extra 33% of real life then. cloud9:
Just think what that would mean! eeek:

I feel cheated unhappy and depressed now. sad32:

Yes. 33% more misery

Yes. 33% more misery

No. You could spend that 33% being happy! lol:

It's not fair anyway. I want more life not kip.
Such a bloody waste in'it ey, in'it? cry:

Someone need to invent a no kip machine to re-charge yerself up type thing whilst you're awake. :thumbsup:
They'd make an absolute fortune and have 33% more time to spend their munny too!
You'd be able to see 33% more places for instance. cloud9:

I dunno do I, or I'd have made one.

Surely it's about feeling good in the time that you are awake. If a power nap for half an hour gives you the boost to enjoy the day then it's worth it. Rather than being goosed for the whole of the day like and enjoying none of it.

Post by: GROWLER on October 13, 2012, 09:11:57 PM
But if I could go without kip now and onwards, I'd live the equivelant of another 10+ years probably! cloud9:
I could then clamber and limp up another 33% more 'ills and spend 33% more time spreading me werd like too! :thumbsup:
Title: Re: Kipping.
Post by: GROWLER on October 13, 2012, 09:13:04 PM
I'm just saying quite simply, that kip IS actually a utter waste of time....in'it?
Title: Re: Kipping.
Post by: Miss Demeanour on October 13, 2012, 09:15:53 PM
Being awake though doesn't mean you are capable or able to do the things you want.

I like my kip and I wish I could have a lie in now and then but me brain doesn't allow it and regardless of how late I have got to bed , in whatever state it forces my eyelids open with a crowbar at hideously early o clock every morning  noooo:

Well yes, I know that's the case now, but I'm just saying like, wouldn't it be ssssso cool and great if someone invented summat to eradicate the need for kip completely,so you'd could enjoy life to the full, in the full sense and meaning of the werd?

Soz. I'm in one of me thinking moods tonight as to how to make life betterer.

Yes yes yes, I know and appreciate that peoples like their kip like,especially when they're all goosed like, but wouldn't you like life more IF you didn't actually need kip?
I know I would.

I don't actually like kipping that much...apart from the de-goosing bit, 'cus I have nasty dreams usually, and wake up loads, sometimes in a blind panic. scared2:

Silly boy, it's supposed to be about fish.


Don't think you will get away from the need to sleep it's programmed into us.  I would love to sleep well but don't.  I have to admit that the thought of being awake all the time is quite depressing.  Even if I was as fit as a fiddle I would not have the munny to do and/or see all of the things that I want to.

I know, I know, but wouldn't it be good if it could be programmed back out again though ey?
You would feel much bettererer, 'cus you wouldn't feel goosed anymore after yet another bad nights kip. cloud9:

You wouldn't have to spend any extra munnys if you didn't want to either.
You could waste spend all that extra time in 'ere talking utter shite with everyone, having deep and meaningful conversations about humanity and the universe. cloud9:

Think of all the extra plant pots you could fill in...like Nick.... and the extra turnips DS could plant...and that's just for starters like! eeek:
